Decided to mount the Bass control **** permanently in the cup holder area. I used hot glue to mount it in place but there was too much glue and the little plastic faceplate would not fit flush. I had to trim the excess glue and it fit just perfect in the stock spot. I had to cut the circuit board for the bass **** to make it fit and you can see where I trimmed. I had to make sure none of the traces were affected by it otherwise the whole board would be ruined. Only thing left from the amp install is to FAB up a bracket to hold the box in place when I go for spirited drives.

Now you can control how loud your bass wobbles! Stealthy indeed

Of course! I was inspired by the Mythbusters dimple mobile!

well today i decide to ATTEMPT to install my exhaust, bolts was a bitch to get off, then decide to install my front lower Gt spec brace took me forever to break loose the front lower control bolts..started to sweat because of the heat so finished that up and took my *** back in the house, i might just end up paying to get the exhaust installed...i cant do nothing in the heat..its too hot. but the front brace makes me want to buy the rear braces probably pick up a used set or buy them new from Kyle at import performance.

well i was able to take the exhaust off no problem but once i got to the cat bolts they were on there like a bitch, so i reinstalled the stock exhaust and now im going to wait till its not as hot or take it to get done..but honestly, anyone who does bushings installs without a impact gun should charge extra because those bolts are a bitch to get off.

Mine were slightly rusted and before I attempted to do the install I sprayed PB blaster generously over all the bolts and went inside for a bite to eat. Came back like 20 min later and just used a 1/2 socket and wrench and broke it loose. Not too bad at all but I would imagine without the PB blaster it might have taken a lot of effort and possibly snapping the bolt.

EDIT: Anyone doing installs better have nicer tools than me and at the minimum a compressor and impact gun.

Love my impact gun. Sometimes I forget to loosen the lugs before getting it up on jacks. Just hit them with the impact and everything is fine.
