UPDATE: Installed! See my reply below!!



I ordered these from newscionparts.com a while ago, and they have finally come in. I probably won't be able to install them for several days.

There are some...problems. The parts look great, but the instructions are in Kanji. I normally wouldn't care, but you apparently need to drill holes in the car to install these things, and how to drill is not something I want to figure out from some basic pictographs. Here are some pics!













So....anyone able to translate for me?


UPDATE: Installed! See my reply below!!

 

WOW..LOL. good luck with all that, bigfieroman!!!! all I can say is WOW......... Looks like the front are gonna be a piece of cake..
The rears...... I am gonna GUESS......... there is 3 different pages of showing the rear end set up.. & they all are just a bit different from the others..
Probally for the 3 different models of Rumion in Jay pan....
These instructions lok to be generic for all 3 models... I think you'll have no problems with the rears..
Just set them up in place, & you'll see what needs to be drilled on our USA model..
Poke the holes with an ice pick type tool ( even shows this in the instructions).. & drill away!! & as the pictures show.. mark your drill bit for a shallow hole.
Dont go in tooo deep.. & use thise screw receivers where needed..
Good luck & NICE PICTURES!!!. take more pictures when you do your install & then we'll make it a DIY Sticky for this mod! T
hanks for posting!! keep us up-dated.... jh

 

nice, i wish someone made mudflaps for the first gen.
ive wanted to do mudflaps for some time but ive never found any.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
they do, but they are meant to be mounted without sideskirts. oratoro modified his to fit with side skirts.
pm me if interested.

 

well yah im interested!

 

interested as well in first gen mud flaps... can you post info or pics of oratoro's modded ones?

 

Can't wait to see those installed. I had no idea that they came painted already. It makes $190 seem a little more reasonable.

Even though it seems pretty straighforward, please post some install pics if you can.

 

You can try google and babelfish for translation tools no?
Good luck!

 

I have a friend who can speak Japanese pretty well. Hopefully he can read it too. if you send me a scan of the instructions maybe I can get a rough translation for you.

I can;'t promise anything, but I can give it a shot...

 

I am planning on writing up a detailed install.

I only have a paper copy, and no kanji keyboard. I would have to find a way to input kanji, and do it by matching up the symbols with what I see...chances are it would take ~20 hours.

I don't have a scanner...I don't suppose the pics above will do? Thanks!

 

I just grabbed the first one I saw, but is anything like this some help?

or maybe

I really appreciate the effort, but it is the 4th hole that has me perplexed...otherwise, this seems doable.

 

I was able to print out those pics. I'll try and keep them around in case I run into my friend. I know he can hold a conversation in Japanese, but if most of the wording in the instructions is technical, he might not know the words... Again, no promises but I'll see what I can do.

 

Mud flaps on my ex-ride.

 

ok Orataro, what are they ment for and were did you get them?

 

So what's the scoop Bigfieroman??? Are you still contemplating the instructions or did somebody at the local sushi joint help you out?

If you got them on where are the pics???

 

I am delaying due to chronic laziness...I will prolly do them over Christmas.

 

They are on and they look great!! Excuse the dirty car, it just went through a blizzard and it is supposed to snow again very soon.

 

good mod, looks great.

 

Looks great! Any instructions on how to install it?
