i agree, i as well learned about the vent chrome piece and the steering wheel stalk

easy replacement.

oem audio + is easy to install just requires removal of interior panels

Not necessarily a useful bump but I decided to remove the sound generator after reading up on a DIY and watching you guys do it.

By the way, was there a more elegant way to remove the bottom plug connected to the body? I used brute force to remove it and the plug was pretty mutilated afterward.

yeah, a clip removal tool usually would help

yes there will be. we had a guy offering to allow us to use his shop but haven't heard from him for 2 weeks now.

my bro in law might let us use his body shop with a lift for DIY day
but it might not happen for another couple weeks

I vote for waiting till past the holidays . . . want some time to acquire coils =P
