    Why didn't you just buy the whole plastic pieces of the console along with it?

  • @specONE
    @specONE20 күн бұрын

    I actually did buy an entire console with scratches for the navigation joystick. The reason for not using it in vehicle was the center console finish is different in a 2014 compared to newer ones and I wanted it to match the finish of the rest of the console. You can swap entire console if you see fit but it can get pricey or hard to source an entire center console for the swap.

    @@specONE Ah ok. Got it thanks. I'm considering installing this same spoiler on my IS and just been trying to watch as many installation videos as I can before I take the plunge. It's been a few years now since your install. How has the spoiler held up, I know one concern about drilling holes into a trunk, is the fear of getting water in there when it rains, causing mold. Have you had to deal with that and is the spoiler still going strong? Thanks.

    It's not about it detecting it's unplugged, it's that it has moved slightly when you unmount bumper and mount back up. It may have moved millimetres but it moved and the system will assume it's still in original position and system will use those sensor data but it will be slightly wrong. Can you get away with it? Maybe but it's not going to be perfect
