The old school best way to straiten out coiled tubing is to uncoil it, then pull it with a come along. It works awesome. I've done tons of that way.

with the new sensors you can have as little as 1 inch and as much as 4 inches of travel, the older sensors had to be kept in the 2.75 inch range.

looking good, very clean install

Thanks yeah after reading the directions last night and seeing the extra piece of paper I figured that out ... They need to update those instructions lol I got a little confused


And as far as the positions all I should have to do is run it through the calibration thing it states and should be close on my desired positions ??

Re: 1950 3100 Full Custom **GunMetal**
 

looking good, I vote no headrest.

Re: 1950 3100 Full Custom **GunMetal**
 

I have never liked headrests, especially if you can see them through the back window.

I also saw that Nova last weekend and I thought the color combo was striking. I also liked the stain/flat finish under the hood.

Re: 1950 3100 Full Custom **GunMetal**
 

Another vote for no headrest....Jim

Re: 1950 3100 Full Custom **GunMetal**

Re: 1950 3100 Full Custom **GunMetal**
 

No headrests it is !!! Now gotta start laying out a center console .... Does anyone know where I could find some billet drop in cup holders or any other accessories maybe something the accuair controller can sit it ... ?

Re: 1950 3100 Full Custom **GunMetal**
 

I ordered this piece and molded it into my console. http://www.dorbritzdesigns.com/produ...-pod-universal
