In order to remove the B pillar (where the seat belt is):

First remove the driver side door sill (so screws its just clipped)

Same here remove rear door sill

Peel back the window seal from top of the B pillar all the way down to the end of the center plastic trim

Remove the black trim (no screws just clips) may take some fidgeting to remove it

Once you remove the black trim 2 screws are reveled, remove the screws to release the B pillar

Then at the center remove the bolt cover and remove the bolt that secures the bottom of the belt then once the B pillar is removed, put the seat belt through the pillar and remove the pillar

For the rear pillar again peel back the window seal and use ur hands or a flat screw driver to unclip it and pull it back, once you put the new one in make sure the end clip goes through the hole, then rest just snaps on.

Default F sport shift **** to match new armrest

I really don't wanna sell my current shift **** because it just looks better than stock but the blue stitching on the f sport will match the car better and since I'm getting a carbon steering wheel it will match that as well, anyways, order is in!

Gonna Twist it a bit more than this to make it sit lower, still doesn't look as good as the one I'm selling (imo)

Default Installing ISF steering damper

So today I finally installed the ISF damper that reduces steering vibration and adds a tad bit of weight. Only the ISF and the ISC models got this. I'm gonna do a test drive with this before I do the ISF steering ecu mod to see a good differance. Will update.

The biggest change is going to be weight, and inhibiting of undesired movement by adding steering resistance. That is helpful on uneven roads

after testing it and taking it to my local canyon yes the extra weight was a good difference.

Default F sport Shift **** and new trunk mat

New shift **** and trunk mat finally came in, here's the results ...

I went ahead and screwed the shift **** all the way in to give it a low profile look, dont like the oem height.



New carpet looks good with the oem first aid kit that i also got with the carpet
