but to answer your question --->>> no i havent done it because of it was professionally installed since its such a paint in the ___. you have to take off the bottom speaker and feed the wires through the boot into the cabin.....unless you can find 12V source in the door and put a switch there...

if you do plan on plasti dipping and want it off if you dont like it trying to pull it doesnt work as well as many people think but paint thinnner and a green um pad thing (cant think or tech name) works wonders

1) ABSOLUTELY DONT TOUCH THE WHEELS!
2) Your car looks amazing!
3) Nice pictures
4) Can I make none ridiculous next mod suggestion? hella horns. paint the cases whatever color you like (i vote black) but relocate them to be symmetrical. it would look that much better with your debadged front + the lighting. also they are not expensive so its a good idea.
