I don't think it would be too hard. I changed out the 3M tape that came with the plate to regular double sided sticky tape. Using a thin piece of some rigid plastic (as to not scratch anything) I think prying the plate off would be easy.

I wanna get their's too, but hesitating about the install since you need to remove the steering wheel. Was it hard to install?

It was not hard, I think I wrote a review in addition to the "remove your steering wheel" bit.

The only thing that you REALLY need to worry about is to make sure you don't turn the sensor while removing it -- otherwise it'll screw up your steering wheel alignment.

3 small holes that you can take a thin long flathead screw driver and pop the airbag off.

After you take off the airbag by unclipping the sensors you'll turn the steeringwheel to lock it

Then you will take a deep socket ratcheted wrench (17mm) and continue to loosen the nut, it'll take some strength to do.

that's basically it -- just make sure you unplug the battery "-" from the car before hand. Leave the "+" on, no need to take that off.

It came in a sticker form, with the sticker backing on both sides. You take off the backing and put it on the mirror however you want to place it, then remove the other backing on the top. It just leaves the vinyl letters behind.

I'm kind of hoping to take a picture of a really fast car in that mirror. Hopefully I have a Lamborghini driving behind me sometime soon haha.

Thanks. All metal-to-metal contact points, piston faces, pad backing and caliper index grooves lubed with hi-temp (2,000°F) anti-seize copper formula per Mike Jr. @Carbotech recommendation.

Wheels today. Enkei RPF1 Tony Angelo edition, Falken FK453 265/35/18. Going to lower the car more and roll fenders on Saturday. Will also camber if needed, but I don't think it will be. I love it though, they look great in person and the car handles MUCH better
