So I took the front bumper off so I could redo the badge deletes. Had to replace the bondo with a 40/40 polyurethane filler. Looks all good now.

Very clean conversion. Impressive work

So over the weekend I made a phone holder. If any of you are like me, and you have a bigger iPhone, Galaxy etc, you probably get tired of trying to fit in in your cup hold. I personally don't like suction cup style phone/gps holders, think they look tacky and always leave a spot on the windshield when removed.

So, I bought a $7 adjustable phone/gps holder and modified to to sandwich in place of the passanger airbag light. I left the airbag light connected, I just stuffed it behind the center cubby. I used a blank, that Ive used before for rear wiper deletes on 350z…… Was the same size, and I buy them at Lowes or Home Depot. Drilled a hole thru the center, and painted in semi gloss black. I then cut the visor clip off the $7 holder, and drilled a bigger hole to push the bolt thru. On the backside of the cubby, I used a washer and nut to secure the whole setup to the cubby. Below are pictures of what I think is genius! And Yes, It does swivel out of the way of the cubby door.
