Hey Everyone,

This might be a simple question, and I figure its straight forward, but I'm just worried the pins on the fire prevention liner...Are they one time use? They seem like they are gonna be a pita to take out...

Is this true?

 

you can use them again. i broke a few of them but who cares i just used the ones that came out right.

 

and you just gotta pull like hell i assume?

 

No, not one time use. i took they out and put the liner on my cf hood. they can be a pita to take out though.

 

i'm gonna go try now

 

get some pliers and pull.

 

A trim removal tool from Auto zone for $6 will make your life a lot easier....and if they do break they sell them in 2 packs for 1.99.

 

where do they sell them at? i went to my dealership down here and they said they dont carry them. I think the guy was just being lazy.

 

hmmmm, I guess i'll get one of those today....

I got the liner out...now i just need a sewing kit...

 

Sewing kit??

 

definately buy that tool. Makes the job so much easier and less likely to break.

 

I have something clever i'm gonna do

 

Keep us posted, I'm interested!

 

I will let you know, the sewing should be finished Wednesday, but I'm headed to Cincinnati Thursday for a Scion Promotion until Sunday, and then I will probably wire it up Sunday afternoon, and then, If I can find a digital camera, get some pictures Sunday night...

Yes its lighting related!

 

Do we really need that hood liner? I wanna take mine out.

 

It's oogly underneath, unless you get the Scion Pro Billet Peice

 

Isn't it supposed to help keep the engine heat from damaging the paint?

 

No you don't. It was the first thing I removed when I got my car, it acts as a sound deadening/paint protection object. (not fire prevention, those things burn like gas soaked paper. Unless scion did something special for their cars)

As far as being ugly, its the bottom of the hood, its your cars color. Not really ugly. But everyone has their 2 cents.

 

Its not there to prevent fires. It's there to fall when there is a fire, land on the flame and extinguish it.

 

LMAO.
SRSLY?

do u think this hoodliner magically know when to "fall" and extinguish the flames?
