My ***** were a BITCH. Had to use a screw driver, you should use trim removal tools. And the carsmo didn't fit great, had to really push them to get them to fit how they should. Just fyi!

They are very tight on the prongs, I used a rubber finger grip (the kind used to flip through rolls of cash) and they gripped well enough to pull them off, I wouldn't have been able to do it without them.

Installed the Carsmo ***** tonight. It was pretty easy to install (plier and electrical tape). They look pretty damn sweet. Just need to wrap the center console to carbon and it will be golden.

I also installed the Carsmo *****... Unfortunately one of my top pentiometers (gold) was the same size as the bottom ones (silver), so the **** sticks out a bit...

Tint, cheapo LED lights for interior. World of difference.

Radar Detector Hard wire next, but I threw away my last mirror mount because I didn't think I needed it anymore (just got the car), and broke my bike reflector for the broke man mod.

I love your setup. If you don't mind me asking, how costly was the steering wheel?

Diode Dynamics and/or V-LED .... quality companies and quality products. The cheap crap ones are just that, crap ... they won't last and color is not uniform across product range.
