Got the window chrome blacked out, looks good (pics tomorrow after I wash her), and got the interior wrapped with 3M 1080 Carbon Fiber (which is VERY easy to use, and looks amazing!)

Also got the iphone extension cord run, went from the extension cord (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0041D6CFY) to a disassembled ebay dock where I took the circuit board out of the middle (http://cgi.ebay.com/Dock-Cradle-Sync...item1c18371b2d) which split it into 3.5mm audio out and apple-cable out. Then I pulled out the glovebox (that bottom left screw is a *****), and routed the cables & junctions in the cavity to the right of the head unit (no longer an annoyingly huge cable tying up the whole glove box), and ran the wire along that corridor and over across the shifter cavity so it comes out by my leg and isn't visible unless you look for it. Now I can play pandora through the Aux-In, ipod through the factory interface, and it charges my phone! I was going to build a dock in the ashtray compartment, but I ran out of time (and patience)

Dr Todd,

(Sorry about bringing an old thread alive again)

Could your share with me the product you used to wrap your interior trim? I love he look of that! Also share any tips you may have for applying it.

For the iPhone cable, I'm a huge fan of what you have done. Do you have a DIY for this? Any other pics or instructions of how you altered that iPod dock would be sweet too!

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Looking great love all the mods!

Link to that CF vinyl you used for the interior? Is it dry or glossy?

Since this was taken last summer I changed the side markers to smoked ones.
