Power wire and RCAs all Knukonceptz Corbeau's CF spoiler Rays Lug nuts So far the Avic D3 is installed but still gotta get the comps and sound deadening in the car,sub is still a bit of a ways off,not sure what one I want to do yet.... Spoiler is on the car but no pictures in my computer for some reason....I know I took some...I will get some when I get car clean,it is filthy right now...PNW winters suck,nothing but rain every day. Only pictures I got of hot 24 year old I cannot post up here...lol |

Finally got the email today that my seat brackets from Corbeau are shipping and will be here WEdnesday....bought them 2/1/2011....I guess from what I understand they are the first brackets Corbeau has made for the Yaris so wish me luck.....hope they fit without me having to modify them....
I will take lots of pictures of the car being gutted so perhaps it may help others with modding. I should be able to bypass the airbag and such no problem,and have them still work even.....done it to several Scions so Yaris should be somewhat the same....lol I got half my order for the sound deadening,still waiting on my gallon of Edead liquid. Also came to decision to run a 15" sub off my amp instead of a 12" of the same wattage.....more cone give more surface to push air....more air moving makes me happy...lol....so 600-750w going to the sub inverted mounted to a 1.67cu ft sealed box....box is slightly on the smaller side but designed for that sub to run effeciantly sealed..... Found me a tC steering wheel so I can also upgrade to it and have a nice leather wheel,hate our hard plastic one..... |

Yep the tC wheel will work,I do not remember reading about any modifacations needed to make it fit.I did try the xA XB wheel and it did not fit correctly.
The tC wheel will accept our airbag....you just have to take off the radio controls. Think there was a thread on here that someone else had already done it. |

haha....yeah at first you think divorce....wow this sucks.....wow...I am losing a crapload....
Then....you go...WOW....I am FREE.....lol.... just wait till the yaris is complete....it is gonna take me a while but it will be really nice.I have some Carbon Fiber layup to do....been a lot of years since I did it but it is not really as hard as people think. finally decided on 15" sub in sealed box,I think about 750w is about as much as I can stand in the hatch with it...should build up pressure pretty good. |

Well I got brackets in today....Wedge Enginering brackets.....brackets attached to seats....seats in car.....
Honestly I need to shim the front a small bit to get maybe 2-3 degrees more tilt back to get the center of gravity feeling like God is cupping you in the seat...lol I ordered the Airbag Switch Module from CTScott so for now the Airbag light on the speedo is on and the seatbelt light flashes on the passenger seat side of the dash.....just gonna wait till I get the Module plugged in before resetting the battery to clear the seatbelt flashing..... I like how these fit the car....it is indeed snug,but I sit at least 3" lower in the car now,taking a bit to get used to......I am fairly short so seeing over the dash is a little tougher to park up hill and seeing behind to back out of a parking spot is a little tougher too...but I will get used to it soon enough. Next....out with rear seat and start the deadening and lots of measurements to install amp and sub..... I also am keeping track of the amount of weight going out the car and the amount going back in.....deadening,sub,sub box,carbon fiber and resin....hoping to keep the weight going in lowwer than that going out.... So far I am 18 lbs lighter switching the seats....that is my best I was able to weigh...stock seats came out 37-38 on my scale and the Corbeaus and wedge brackets came out to 28-29 on my scale.... Looking forward to weighing the rear seat....it has to go and a 42lb sub and about a 16-20 lb box go in its place.....also about 35lbs sound deadening wil go in .....and an amp weighing in at about 10lbs.....then harness bar has to go in that has to be at least 10lbs.....so my guess is spare and rear seat will average it all out to a zero weight added if I am lucky....

Much Thanks to CTScott.....his airbag module worked perfectly.....probably the first item ever....that I was able to plug in and walk away,not needing to modify....lol
so if you change out your seats he has the tool to make the airbag work correctly it looks....I like it....I like it a lot.... |
