Well it was an eventful 2 days for my car.
On Friday I plasti-dipped the wheels to see how I would like the black wheels on it which has since turned into a bit of trouble. Today I installed an new head-unit. It's a Pioneer AVH-X5500BHS.
Wheels turned out alright, once I get tired of the plasti dip I will probably just sand them down and actually spray them with black enamel. Trouble is when putting the wheels back on, I was spinning the security lug on the back drivers side wheel and the head of the security bolt sheared off. I wasn't torquing it down, I was simply spinning it on with a socket and it sheared. I looked at where it sheared of and there is literally corrosion where it sheared already.
Hopefully the dealership will fix as there's no way it should have sheared like that.
Unfortunately the head unit install went better but not flawlessly. I got the XM cable hidden pretty well all the way to the front, works well. However I could not get my bypass for the parking break to work nor have I been able to get the pac swi-ps to program. I got it set for mode 3 but it will not receive inputs. I assume 2 things are possibly going on, 1 its not properly grounded(I tried grounding to the bolt under shift boot) and/or I didn't get a perfect grip on the resist for the pac swi-ps. Iphone, XM and FM work well though, I hid the iphone cable in the cubby hole above the head unit.
