Funny how we are all different - you see I like having the brand on the SS - one reason I do not want to replace the stock steering wheel which has the SS emblem with the sparco or different one. I did replace the shift lever and boot (red stiching)

Welcome to the SS family - you are more "handy" then me - for my garage door opener I just took a spare one and used 3m two sided tape to secure it to by the driver side seat It works, but your solution will be cleaner - I guess you using one of the available switches

Enjoy the SS

So i got to finish my garage door button & while i was at it i installed the Digital Guard Dawg remote start (im not carrying no keys) Key fob is enough for me.........Mark my words the day is coming where everything will operate from your cell, you wont need keys or key fobs

Well I couldnt take that plain silver Valve cover, it just wasnt working for me, if it was black i could have lived with it BUT since i had some BLUE G2 Caliper paint for my calipers & its the same as the G2 engine paint, ill give it a try and order another G2 kit for my calipers to match

And these are my RGB LEDs along with the TricLEDs Halo rings, placed in the footwells, wheels and of course my cup holders. I always light up my cup holders in my cars and on my Harley, since i love water why not let the bottle glow...

Well since ive been waiting on items ( that havent arrive yet ) so i could start swapping out my alternator & battery...I figured I would go ahead and start adding some other items that i have waiting to get installed like 2 new switches, Front JL audio kicker pods, Pioneer Avic 8200NEX , Polaris OEM rear camera ( I customed wired it up to a switch where i can control when i want to use my rear camera NOT on my reverse circuit )....

Would you be willing to share your rear camera wiring mod diagrams?

My guess is that the WHITE wire im not using from the back of the camera is connected to the reverse signal with the stock headunit......meaning once your placed in reverse the signal is sent to the rear camera, i would cut that WHITE wire and then place it in reverse ( you shouldnt get a signal on your headunit)....then you would have to see if giving that white wire any power WHILE NOT in reverse will cause your back up lights to come on or anything else, if not then thats how you would proceed to wire up a OEM headunit.......Hope i made sense lol
