Lucky, I ordered mine back in 2013 when they were still gathering interest in the legacy plates. I originally ordered it for my truck, but it worked out pretty well. Seems they are working quicker with fresh orders.

I was a passenger in a friends E46 M3 convertible yesterday. The ride was crap, even worse than my BRZ. Clunky transmission. My friend is one of those natural athlete types, so given how jerky the shifting was I have to assume the clutch take up point is hard to find. (I didn't want to bug him about while he was driving). It didn't even feel that fast, though it sounded awesome when he finally opened it up a bit.

Makes me feel just a little better about the BRZ...

Did this one a couple days ago. Installed a USB port into the back of the otherwise useless cubby hole and ran the plug to a USB charger in the glovebox 12v socket.





Goes GREAT with the Scosche Magnet mount I put in. I love that thing...






The only snag I hit was that the back of the cubby hole trim piece is the mounting spot for the keyless-remote-receiver. I cut that off and essentially zip tied the receiver to the USB port I installed. Pics upon request.

Next step is relocating the USB/AUX port to the glovebox...and finding something to fill the hole.

Got my ModBargains duckbill painted and installed! Looks nice and finishes off the backend, in my opinion.

Thanks! It has two bolts that reuse factory BRZ Limited holes and the rest is 3M tape. Constructed out of fiberglass reinforced plastic, so a little more robust than ABS.

They did at the end of June when I ordered it . Shipped really quickly too - had just been sitting in my closet for a couple months until I dropped it off to get painted. I PM'd them in March or April and they were out of stock then, so they said I could order and wait, or just email them before I ordered, which is what I did to confirm it was on hand before paying.

Everyone ALWAYS misses that one. Also the plug for the 12V socket is a perfect fit for plugging the sound tube under the passenger footwell carpet
