Default Easy weight reduction on a tC!







Just remove all the interior out of it!

Well not really. I got this in at work because the sunroof makes creaking sounds. So I had to take the headliner out and to do that you need to remove basically all the interior behind the door panels and some of them in front of it. Not a fun task at all. Its weird ripping the interior out of a brand new car.

Neat pics. I felt weird taking off the panels to put in my sub and led lights, I can't imagine how you felt. Any left over pieces when you got it all back together? Oops. :D

Its not back together yet. When I left work yesterday it was in pieces. We have to drive it today with the interior out to see if we can hear any sounds and pinpoint them. Than if we think we fixed it I will finally put it back together.
