drop! but looks good.

 

It's the Kenwood eXcelon DDX-8019 with the Kenwood KNA-G510 GPS module... The door closes perfectly fine, there's a little bracket mod you have to do and it'll work with most radios.

 

Drop is planned for the spring/summer time with a new wheel and tire setup

 

What is this bracket mod and where can I find how to do it?

 

There's a few write-ups here on ScionLife if you search for them, it's a really simple mod... All you have to do it drill out the three "dimples" on each side of the bracket to move the headunit back a little bit to allow the door to fully close/open... The places you have to drill are already "marked" on the factory bracket, you just have to drill it out and that's it. There is no gaps around the radio or anything, it's just slightly pushed back.

 

I didn't find a thread that said how to hack the sh*t out of your tC factory HU brackets; the search must have left that one out

Thanks for the pointer, it worked great.

The search feature is not optimal so a little elaboration is all I asked for, thanks though.

I wasn't trying to be a wise guy when I said to search for it... All I was saying is that I'm too lazy to explain it, and a few people have already said how to do it... No need for sarcasm ok?

 

I didn't ask you for threads.

You stated that there were many threads, I said I did not see a hack your HU brackets thread. You stated search and as I said the search is not optimal and only 2 or 3 posts in only 2 of those threads you posted were related to what I asked.

I said thanks for the explanation as I had already done what you explained.

 

It's cool man, just some misunderstandings ... Glad it worked out for you...

 

looking very good, i still havent sprayed a single bottle, there is only one shop close by and they have been out of nitrous since i installed my kit, everyday i call they keep telling me that its on the way, hopefully ill get to enjoy it soon, keep up the mods,

 

Thanks... Dude that'd drive me crazy lol... I got the tank filled before I even installed the kit... Are there any other shops in your area that fill em'?

 

there are shops a little further of a drive, but i work two jobs so its tough getting the time to drive out there and get it taking care of, but its not making me to upset since this weekend is the first weekend of decent weather, i havnt missed much. hopefully they get it this week and i can go have some fun with it next weekend, my new wheels will be in also so that will make it even better, got some rpf1's. cant wait.

 

Both of you suck!!

I haven't finished my install yet but my bottle is filled.

I still haven't receive my two new nitrous and fuel hoses that go from the solenoid to the air intake.

I had to get two more since the 22" ones the kit came with were about a quarter inch too short.

If it weren't for the stealth theme i'm going for I would be in there right now.

 

^^^can't wait to see it done, be sure to post in my nitrous pic thread

 

looks clean add some tint and a drop with your rim setup

 

Thanks,

I think some of my plans for my tC are going to have to be put on hold for a little while, I was going to get new wheels/tires and a drop... Except I finally went and took the written test for my Motorcycle Permit today and got it, so my main focus (and money) right now is getting a Yamaha YZFR6 or a Suzuki GSXR 600... That time of the year is right around the corner and I'm going to try to get the bike ASAP ...

 

^ OK... A little update... All tC mods are officially on hold for now... I finally got a BIKE! It's a Honda CBR600 F4i. It's getting delivered on Tuesday hopefully, I'll take pics on Wednesday if the weather is nice. Can't wait!

 

what shift **** do you have? thats the cleanest one i've seen besides the mustang one everyone has...

 

^^I am pretty sure that is the TRD one that comes with the quick shift kit.

 

hmm..D90 nice, I wanted that camera for awhile. Oh by the way, where did you get your VRD grills from?
