It's a mod sort of weekend

M2Rob · 05-20-2018, 07:57 PM

These are the first picture post attempts, if they dont work, I apologize. Also, I apologize for the dirty car, this is the first sunshine we've seen in these parts for a long time, so detailing is on the list.

First off, the mandatory Polar Blue start button. My 3 year old sons call it the vroom vroom button.

Next, the Radar Detector, gets all live data from the internet over WiFi, and yes, it is hard wired to the mirror. Also, connects wirelessly to the Laser shifters. That's a picture of the wireless antenna. I just need to hide some wires.

Next, for my Torque app, Live TV, Spotify, and WebEx based conference calls, here is my dedicated Android device.

Here is the Kuda phone mount, with the Mophie Magnetic Charger attached. I still need to recess it, and hide wires.

Here's the front end, so you can see the laser jammers position. You can also see the VRS CF lip, and the M tri color grill.

Here are the CF side skirts from a rainy day this week. You can also see that the wheels have been spaced out 12mm F and 10mm R.

And lastly, and most importantly. the Mod I've not seen before. I bought 2 velcro straps from Menards that had eyelets on them. I simply removed the screws in the center of the trunk panel, and replaced them through the eyelet. now I have rings to hang my umbrella and snow removal tool. Trunk floor is completely empty all seasons now!

hopefully all these pictures come through, if not, I will try a different way.

Have a great day!

Learn how to JTK, please, for jammer users everywhere. If you need an explanation please ask.

Also, those (Escort ZW5?) are gonna get owned by the more advanced guns, and various parts of Ohio do have some of the new stuff. I've heard meh reviews at best on the detector too, but I also understand the desire to not screw around with getting wires through the firewall. On some cars that is a major PITA; I don't know about this one yet since I'm still waiting for my preferred solution to be regularly available on the market. (I'm going to do a 360Ci front/rear radar-only, which is supposed to be hitting the market late April to now-ish, and then ALP for lidar-only.)

(rdforum.org is your friend)

I love that umbrella / ice scraper thing though. Need to go find some straps like those for my trunk. Making me want the polar blue start button too.
