    It looks like its just the visor pieces that go through, but I think theres more out there. Can you be more specific so Im not scratching my head halfway through

      Peel back the door seals some to reveal the overlap.
      Open the sunroof and remove the front trim piece and reveal the overlap.
      Visor mount pieces.

        Well, as I expected the sunroof panel is not as straight forward as expected. Remember earlier when I installed the new panel and seal? Well the seal is making the panel refuse to drop down to allow sliding back. And since I cant slide the sunroof back I cant get to the two bolts off which are holding the panel on... so its getting pushed to the side for now. While I was messing with that I also discovered something else. The antenna seal is MIA and while I have a replacement (also fun to install if you've ever done it) I noticed a nice puddle in that side trunk pocket where the factory jack lives.



        I was in the mood for destruction, but didnt want to get too wild, so I grabbed a drill bit and have relieved the puddle


        Also, what have you guys told Kevan to do!?... this was clearly NOT what I wanted when I said I didnt like the way the tips looked....

          Get him to do an exhaust tip with a restrictor that can be inserted or removed with a circlip or something. M20s sound so funny when they're restricted.

                  It has to get really cold to get the tip to shrink that much.

                      You mean after and before right? We were promised full bososoku!


                      But no, it looks way more appropriate now.
