Your rims have LEDs all the way around??? WOW

sorry for the delay again on the writeup guys. ive been at work most of the day working on the 65 mustang thats going to SEMA. its still only about 10% assembled and in primer, so i have a long way to go. im going to stay up late tonight and write it all up.

Hess RS · 10-03-2009, 10:10 PM

o and for DVS those arent leds those are the bolts for the 3 piece wheels reflecting off our outside shop lights. would be cool with leds though!

i do like all the time you spent on molding and and painting but i think it would look pretty slick if dsvcustoms did the mounting bracket in leather. You can do black leather with stitching and the stitching follows the stitching on their leather center console. Now thats an idea. You guys can team up.

Hess RS · 10-04-2009, 12:19 AM

thats a great idea. ill see if i can do that on one in the future. i think it would look very nice.

So if I was interested in doing this, should I order a PDIM? I have a 1ss, so no usb right now

Jakefeb3 · 10-04-2009, 02:55 AM

Or maybe you just totally override the PDIM and it all happens in the head unit now. Cant wait for the writeup

Hess RS · 10-04-2009, 03:28 AM

no the pdim does nothing when you put a double din in there. basically the only stock functions that you would use are the onstar out of the center speaker on the dash, and some menu functions. otherwise the factory radio is useless, but it has to be retained in the car unfortunately. if that wasnt the case my job would be a lot easier.

Jakefeb3 · 10-04-2009, 04:27 AM

Very cool, I want to upgrade what I have now, but if this method doesn't use the PDIM, I figure I shouldn't waste the money

Absolutely Unbelievable!

Waiting patiently to see images from the cameras............

That is awesome man, a work of art

Supermans · 10-04-2009, 03:30 PM

Very nice. The only rough spot I can see is the 1/4 inch part of the double din sticking out while the other side is a little too deep. However at night it wouldn't be noticeable. Very very nice, I wish was closer to CA, I would pass by.. I do agree that if you painted the whole console gloss black, it would look a lot better.. Also for me the yellow panels is just too much, too bright. THe more goldish Bumblebee Sunrise color or perhaps even orange would look better and contrast more with the bright yellow of the car.

Hess RS · 10-04-2009, 03:34 PM

Ok let me just clear this up before we go any further. The CLARION unit we put int he car, the bottom and the right side stick out 1/4" farther then the top and the left side. that is ho wthe radio is stock, its not like a pioneer where its flat all the way around. the radio sits straight in the dash, it just looks sideways. this picture shows it better then mine. We dont do rough spots!!
