Ya know Steve has an extensive, well documented Word file on his website for the installation of the LL...not sure I can add much to it.

But words of wisdom always appreciated.

Yes I know I have down loaded it already. Just in case I get lucky on getting a unit on my hands.

The package containing my brand new LuxLink just arrived safely via my postal carrier. Now the fun begins.

Anyone have a shop in the Dallas area they might recommend who I can have install for me? This would just be beyond my capability and I'd like it done right.

I was thinking JP Importz. I just emailed them today to see if they'll do my Luxlink and quarter window mod. I know they've installed the luxlink before during the previous version but the quarter window mod is still learn as they go. Good news is Steve and JP Importz know each other.

I'll let you know how it goes. I'm hoping I can leave my car with them to work on as long as they give me a loaner. Or the miss will let me borrow her car while she's away

Cool Huy! I really want a first rate job and they have a pretty good rep around here I understand! Maybe we can get a package deal

Count me in. I am in Austin and I'll go to Dallas to have it done right. I should get mine next week. I think I am the only SC430 owner representing Austin..

They qouted me $xxx which isn't bad. I'm not sure if it's Luxlink and quarter window mod installed or just luxlink. I'm suppose to let him know when I get the units in hand so I'm going to bug the crap out of our mail lady. Good thing she likes me or else she'll be pissed.

Nice Huy! Thanks for the update. Ill be looking out this week myself - very happy to not be on the road for a few days! I got the quarter window mod as well so we'll see how that goes for you. I'd love to be able to watch and document the process. The voyeur/technical writer in me coming out.

Blah!!! Still waiting for the mail lady. She usually gets here in the afternoon around 4-5pm... I already ran around the neighborhood trying to find her. 1 hr and a half to go.

I got mine, but what now? Looks complicated for a DIY. Hopefully yours is not lost
