only a Scion owner would notice that...

 

Finally took a picture with the two-tone and reverse LCD finished. Used two layers of the red vinyl that Garage1217 sells.

 

cough i did the screen swap cough

 

Lies.

 

NIEN!

 

just did my underdash =D! (dont mind the zip die sticking out i forgot to cut it before i took the pic >.<


yes i know my car is messy (i dont clean it till im done with what im doin)
yes the 360 is almost installed (working on mounting it inside the glove box)

working on cupholders/under seats tonight

 

i am trying to do my waterfall, how do you guys take off the ****?
i took it out before, its been too long. I forgot.

 

You gotta first remove the small nut and washer, i believe its 10 or 11mm. Then push the buttons from the front (equally like 2 fingers on each side) and the **** should pop off and the circuit board will come off from the waterfall. Thats how i did it atleast lol.


finished my copholders last night and put in the stuff around the gauges (lol idk what their called) my door pulls are the same color and soon part of my waterfall as well.




bah cell phone pics dont do justice, paint has a relly nice sparkle fleck in it, when im done ill use my real camera.

 

very nice. love the green glow

 

the lights seem kinda dim, probably just the pics

 

yah its my phone camera, doesnt do any of my pics justice, i get my camera back from getting repaired in an hour or two, so ill take some better ones today/tonight

 

thanks for the help. i got the **** off.
now i can't get that ring off. I saw the 2 opening. i assume just turn it and it should come out. but it does not want to turn.

 

Im fairly sure that that doesnt some off = /. I tried also and it just seemed like if it was gonna come off, it was gonna be because it was broken not because it was supposed to come off. The two little openings (dont take my word on this i could be wrong just my thoughts) are for the light from your LED's to light the red and blue lines underneath the ****. I ended up just taping it off, its a bit tedious (sp?) as you use a bunch of tiny pieces, but in the end, i liked the result, if i can get a pic ill post later, but the red and blue have like a faded effect from under my black paint that i think looks real nice. Hoped this helped =).

 

It comes off. You have the right idea with those tabs...it's just a PITA to get it off.

 

i spend the whole last night trying to take the Havc apart. Flea told me to use those small jeweler screw driver to pry it off. It works!!
Going to paint it tonight.

 

so upset that that piece comes off. lol

lol glad someone knew though

 

it was so easy to mess it up. I spray the clear coat on one of the piece for too long. It was running. Then decided to sand it down, but i used very coarse sand paper. The scratches were too deep. It shows up after i applied 2 light coats of primer and a coat of paint.

Then i sand it down with 400 grit and 1000 grit,


Follow by few heavy coats of primer.



After 3 light coats of paint and 3 coats of clear coat.







i am almost done, just need paint the lower part of the waterfall black tomorrow.

 

waterfall is finally done.
my sis messed up CS3 i can't crop or edit pics now. I will wait until tomorrow to upload more pics.

 

No clear?

 

it have 3 clear coats just the black metallic paint didn't come out too good.
