Does anybody know if the Phantom website is currently undergoing any difficulties? I've tried to message Rob several times via the "contact us" tab, to get ordering information for the supercharger kit, but I've had no response.

After the adventure is over and they are driving off, Michael notices a button with a "C" on it and asks Kitt if he knows what it does. Kitt does not, and in typical Knight attitude, Michael is like, "only one way to find out" and pushes it. He is quite delighted when the roof retracts.

Please please use the slot cut battery cover, it protects the exposed terminals.

He should respond soon. I know that he sold all 10 of his first run in the first day and there were 20 to 30 others interested in purchasing on day one. He is probably very busy lol.

Didn't he gain the invulnerability back? Also, I don't think it was the gang that gave him SPM. Great, now I have to go back and re-watch the whole thing.

First thing on my list of things to do when I go home today, followed by soldering in a relay.

Also after watching that video I just realized I never remembered the laser passive restraint system. Best name for a seat belt ever.

Rob on a completely on track question: Can I purchase the new version of the battery cover/holder?

It's two episodes. It's a season ending cliff hanger. The modifications are in part 2.

When he got back to the institute they gave it back to him, but to defeat the bad guys who took it away, he needed something extra to make up for not having it, so the street gang that helped him came up with the Super Pursuit Mode.

...and you will absolutely not be able to argue when your wife calls you a child. Again.

OK, the relays I ordered came in. I will be mailing them out to those of you who PMed me about them. I was successfully able to get it working - I took an old iphone car charger (nobody in my house uses a device with an iphone dock connector anymore) and ran the power wires to it, then plugged it into the outlet in the glove box



I also decided I didn't like having the meter/switch where I put it on the trunk button. I thought about it for a minute and realized that I have never used the aux/usb ports, I'm bluetooth only, and the usb port doesn't charge my phone at all. I removed and unplugged the aux/usb and affixed the meter/switch to that spot using some Sugru. I think it turned out pretty well.
