OH! You're saying that you have LCI, but you don't have the brake mod.

I see, if you can provide the pics, that would help. Though the video above goes to demo it pretty well I think.

Haha, are they that strict in HK? I can't imagine the cluster or this mod will actually void your warranty except for the modded parts?

it will not void my warranty but will void that part that I have mod and any other part that related to it.
they will say that it is not the oem part so they will not fix it.

Do it Guru! It looks so much better. I remember thinking I don't need the LCI tails before because I can't see it anyway, but after awhile, I got to thinking that I might as well have a sexier rear, lol. But of course, the stupid stock braking application totally cancels out the cool look -- hence this mod.

I remember thinking exactly the same and decided not to blow a lot of cash on not much flash....if you get my drift! Decided to hold back and now if I ever think about LCI tails, its got to be this mod or nothing

Hi nomis_nehc,

Forgot to ask, you modified the V6 cable or just follow my DIY to make it work ?

Actually, it's done in a whole another way, lol. But I figured that since you were the one that came up with it, I would tribute it to you
