The plate is a four layer decal. Layer one is white vinyl, layer two is reflective white, layer three is the numbers and letters and layer four is a clear graffiti shield so layer three won't peel off. Gonna make version two soon. Version two will have the simulated holes for mounting.

That's pretty cool! that last layer really helps it look like one solid piece.

I honestly, don't think you will have any problems with the police. Especially since its reflected and it is the exact replica of your original plate what more can they ask for? shhhooot...

have you seen mine................


Thats right i dont have one on! , so there you have it i got way more chance of getting ticketed for not having than you.

Looks awesome cant wait to see version 2.0

Default steering wheel interface

I haven't done much to the xb2 in the last week. I just finished the steering wheel interface install so everything works like before.


Where did you tap into for the steering wheel interface? At the actual steering wheel or in the back of the radio? and which interface did you use. I got a PAC and looks intimidating

I used a PAC interface and connected the controller to the cars harness in back of the headunit. I think it was just a few wires. I used wire tap connectors. Not that hard to install

The PAC responds very well. There's a half second delay when you hit a button. I've gotten use to it, just hold down the button for a fraction of a second longer. Its worth having your steering wheel controls back after a head unit change.

Darksides7 with all do respect sir.... I HATE YOU! You really know your way around the B. I wish I knew how to take the front bumper off. I want to do some stuff that requires the bumper to come off, but I don't have a clue about that stuff. Do you know where there is a step-by-step of getting the bumper off?

I did my wheels, springs & HKS bars. That felt good, now I need to go further.

SWEET LOOKING B.

RC-PILOT removing the front bumper isn't that difficult. Here's a link to the install instructions for the fog lights.
