Guys:

I just ordered my pre-painted AC Style Roof and Tail Spoiler. It should be here within a week. Expect a DIY write up with pics on the adhesive process, silicone, etc as well as before and after images..........

....Hold one, the modding continues.... Damn I love this forum!

Will let you know. I did some reading and see that there is a little finesse involved in getting it to sit right on the rear sindscreen [the curvature of the glass]. I will post pix as soon as I get the project rollin.....

Good stuff, yes being on this forum is addicting and will hurt your wallet.

I noticed you have a hardwire Pioneer Inno, do you have pictures on where you have it mounted. I have the same one but havent mounted on yet.

Hey Delje,

Will post some pix for you soon. I have it hardwired into the cigarette lighter in the center of the dash. I removed the cover, took out the silver tray and placed the dock into that area [it's a tight fit but it does get in there]. The Inno can sit at a 45 degree angle and it looks pretty cool there. The wires tuck into the area behind it.

The hardwiring was done by a local car mechanic. He took apart the cigarette lighter socket and spliced into the electrics over there. The end result is you see no wires at all. I have the sound out running through the AUX input with the wire running behind the dash into the Aux Input in the glove. I usually use the remote on the Inno even though its right there...don't have to take my eyes off the road and on to the display that way...

Hope this helps.... Pix of the spoiler install coming soon..
