lol to make it all i did was take the c/f from my dash kit that would fit my car (sunroof light, i dont have sunroof) And cut it in the 2 strips What you can do for that though is buy some carbon fiber vinyl and use hairdryer and stick it on there For those who didnt find it yet, makotoauto who sells these on ebay is nolonger selling them with the 2 little stips in in here is there current auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...;category=43951 [ cgi.ebay.com]

LOL no ur jsut fine. takes liek 5 min. you take out the bezel ( total of 5 screws) then pull out the bezel and pop off the clear part. simple and easy. Herdest part is those 2 damn plugs in the back. they are a bitch to unplug

Unplug? Why do i need to unplug it. i thought that you can just put it on when you get the clear part off. I didnt know i actually had to take the whole thing out.

Thanx for the help, ill try to unplug it so i can really center it. And im guessing to unplug it, its just hard to get them apart and have to really tug at it.

well the 2 plugs are hard to get to as it is but the bitches jsut dont want to budge. i got pissed so ended up using a flathead to pry the bitch off. make sure you press the littel clip on the top down and my best suggestoin is get alitle flathead and pry off all around. be careful and evntually it will come off.

OK -for those of you who want the 2 strips and didnt get them like me--i will make you the strips -for $6 shipped- i only have enough fiber to make about 5 pair-so first come first serve--let me know-it will have a 3m backing-but may not be as thick as the bezel its-self--i will make mine friday and post a pic for you to see
