Changed the dv today to the revised g version. Tbh the c was immaculate so perhaps a waste of £30. Time will tell. Car feels no different haha

Wheels are due in Monday, I'm then going to paint them in a custom anthracite/xirrilic mix.

I will need rear camber, luckily I have a hunter so can set it up haha

More work continues on the reverse camera badge, I now have all my bits bar camera due to a cockup at hids4u.

This will be one cool mod

Will be worth it in the long run Jake the C would have split most likely in a few months.
For the sake of mind I will be changing to rev G once a year. It's £40 and half an hour of fiddling to fit so, just incorporate that into the servicing costs :)

Looking forwards to seeing wheels on.

started work on the badge. 



Just need a few little bits that I got today and some wiring and she's good to go. 



Wrong camera was sent so that should be here Monday also, then it's a case of wiring it to the factory rns510 via an adaptor.

I've got the rns 510

As far as I'm aware there's no coding. Just swap one pin around.

Sorry,

Replied on my phone this morning and it didn't show you quoted the badge, I thought you meant the climate control

Yes you do need to code the rns510, it's just to tell it there's a reverse camera

The universal camera goes through an interface then into the unit, 

It's not complete bar the camera which hids4u have cocked up twice, still waiting for the third attempt to arrive!!!!

I have an electronics genius next door, and he's made me a unit, that will take a reverse feed, then operate the servo, in the meantime it also trips a relay to cut power to the micro switch so the boot doesn't open, so the handle can open more, the power is cut after the handle shuts as the relay has a timed delay in it, so the boot doesn't get accidentally tripped.

I've also ordered a genlabs drl control unit which will drop my drls to 50% brightness, well it will when all the parts arrive for that haha

Final thing is the wheels, they still haven't arrived either, which is annoying, the custom xirrilic colour has been mixed since Monday lol
