    Oh sorry man all you do is splice into the brake and Parker wire in your left or right taillight (I did the right because it was easier to run the wires into the boot) then one goes to your brake and the other to your parker.. its 2 seconds..if you want plugs just go to a wreckers and snip the plugs off the boot. PM me if i'm not making sense

    Installed the new head unit bracket (thanks to uniacidz for showing me!) easy to install and fits beautifully.

    Looks great. Looks stock like it's meant to be there.

    Bummer about the rim. You'd be looking forward to get the steel rim off and back to alloy.
    Nice ride.
    What % are the tins?

    Its 20% though looks darker because of the black interior.

    Odd question but did those steering wheel controls on the VY wheel wire straight up to the factory control unit (or aftermarket unit) or did some electrical wizardry take place?

    Well there wired all the way to the control unit so if you had the stock head unit in they would work but you'll need to do some "electrical wizardry" to get them to work with an aftermarket head unit or you can buy an adapter for around the $100 mark

    Just make sure its the right one like if you went "Factory loom - Pioneer loom" with an adaptor it wont work it needs to be "Factory loom - Steering wheel control loom - Pioneer loom" (Someone correct me if I'm wrong) Which is why i just haven't bothered to do it yet lol
