OK so heres another mod, ive continued my HVAC mod to my shifter letters....

You need:
-celophane
-scissors
-scotch tape
-about 15 minutes

Step 1: Removal
First pull the ebrake up, and unsnap and lift the plastic out surrounding it. Pop the front first and then the back... just pull straight up.


then pop the back of the piece around the shifter up...

here is the tricky part, pull this piece out and towards you kind of then down to remove it, its tricky.... put the car in nuetral to make this easier then shut the car off


The piece around the shifter comes off next.... it is held on by 4 points, i dont even know how to explain how i removed them,,, alot of force and prying with a flathead got this off... then just turn it sideways and push it as far up as you can go on the shift knob

Take the letter plate off and set it aside...

Remove the piece under it... i took off the white strip to make it brighter...but you dont have to...

you can then put it on your face to look like Nelly when E-Thuging


Now you notice when you put your car in gear, it lights up red to show which gear your in, ok cmon i think were all smart enough to know what gear where in without that, or maybe im just a prodigy... i didnt wanna hurt my green so away with the red tab

BTW this is where the scissors come in... snip!


Step 2:lay the color
Now cover that clear piece with the color cellophane you plan to use. I reccomend double layering it.

Step 3: re-assemble
Now set the colored piece back in there, lay the letters on top and snap it all together





*please dont mind the green letters before i showed you how to do it, some pictures were taken out of order because my dumb ass forgot i was making a how to until half way through

 

As much as some people will say thats "rice", I think its nice. I mean, hey, all youre doing is changing the color. Looks good!

 

Again... gangsta ny dude... too bad I'm mechanically inclined...even with something as well explained as that... looks like I have a few things to try monday

$YM$

 

cool mod...

but the green lights keep reminding me of ford

 

dont say that il rip it out lmao... i hate ford but ive only been in m dads explorer ... which ford has the green lights?

 

Now you have to mod the stock head unit and you're done

Good luck with that one

You're definitely e-thuggin

 

ok, the green lights look cool and all, but my main question is: Where the hell did u get those sweet ass carbon fiber dash pieces? hit me back, cuz i gotta get me some of them suckers!!!

 

There stickers.....

 

hahaha......

dont they all have green lights?......or just the old ones. but i remember the radios are green. i dont know the first thing that comes to my mind is ford .

 

no their not.... go to nycdashes.com, they stick on yet but they are not stickers/vinyl

 

I beleive they called it Carbon Fiber Veneer. Too expensive for me though, I'll stick with my performance parts

Looks good bio

 

thnx man... ya it ssomething like that its gelcoated... not the primer sht, a diff kinda gell coat to protect it from fading/cracking

 

nice tool cd

 

ya lol i had it a while b4 it came out lol, its as i lay dying under it too.... i love music, the pic of me in my room... my walls are all posters..theres a giant KoRn one too

 

yeah i had it long before it came out too, its great, did you see the sweet cover?

 

Mmmmm, Green!

 

havent seen the cover

 

Looks good
I would definately try and do something like that, but I've got no more free time.

 

you should get the actual cd, its got 3d things all in the cover, greatness times 5

 

I cannot get that piece off for the life of me... I did the HVAC one no problem... like 20 minutes of me tooling around to get it to look the way I wanted...

But this ****'s f***in impossible!?!?

$YM$

 

you cant get that strip off that im holding?

 

No not that... the plate around the shifter... I don't understand where to pry from... it has like no give at all to it.

On the bright side, I must again give you props on this... the HVAC one looks bad ass in blue (almost as gangsta as your originator-green)!!!

$YM$

 

post some blue pics.... ok here is what i did to get it off.... start with the rear passenger side clip, slip a flathead under the and twist it to pry it off.... then i muscled it under the front passenger side clip... then using my fingers ripped the rest off and somehow didnt break it.... this is the hardest part of the mod,... it is very hard.... come to the meet im setting up dude i wanna meet you finally..... dont worry about breaking this piece... its sturdy as hell, and you can probably crazy glue it back down and the center consoul piece might even hold it in place... just dont be afraid and go for it

 

Hey biohazard why does your little plastic piece that tells you which gear you're inhave a 1 and 2 because mine says L for low and I for intermediate? Also where did you get the celophane at?

 

i got a base model....05(might be why) it says 1/2/D/N/R/P.... cellophane is at any party/girft store.... i went to factory card outlet.... its to wrap presents in
