I know some of you have done custom interior work, I'm slowly working on mine. Let's see what everyone else has done to the dash, seats, doors, or any and everything on the inside.
Well then mine is gone. afterall my car was used when I bought it, I just never thought there was anything there. Guess that could be a next project, replace parts that should be there. Just not until after I get my windows tinted which should hopefully be next weekend.
Idk if it was ever really there, but it would be nice to put one there. Anyways, back on topic, no one else has anything done to their interior? I want to see everything everyone has done dash, seats, headliner, doors, any and everything.
Oh ok bro do u mean the red wire? Cause the harness I bought the red 12v wire it had was in a different spot of the factory harness, so that red wire wasn't conected to nothing, which wire did u tap the cig wire to? U know how the harness has 2 yellows 2 blacks and 1 red and the stereo harness has 1 yellow 1 black and 1 red, did u connect 1 and 1 yellow 1 and 1 black and the red wire from the stereo is that the one u connected to the cig wire? Cause when I would connect 1 and 1 yellow and 1 and 1 black it wouldn't turn on but if I would tap the red from the stereo to the yellows it would turn on but without the key so the stereo would stay on all day and I don't want that
The red wire gets tapped into the cig lighter. The wire for the + accessory in the cigarette lighter should be a striped wire. The other is solid black and a ground.
The two yellows i tied together, and connected to the radio harness
Two blacks i tied together and connected to the black on the radio harness
Red gets run to the cig lighter.
Doing that, the radio should turn on and off with the car, but keep in mind the radio will stay on until one of the doors open.
Once the doors open it kills the power to the cig lighter. Either that, or i think it auto shuts off after a minute or two if you dont open the door right away.
Oh ok bro I got it thankes for the big help u just saved me 120 dollars : ) oh bro one other thing idk if u have a double din or a flip out tv but if u do what I'd u connect the wire that let's u c the image? It originally has to be connected to the ebrake but then it won't let u watch videos/movies while driving unless the ebrake is pulled up
depends on the brand of indash it is and how old or new it is. I know my kenwood i just had to ground the parking brake wire, but some of the indashes out there you have to have a switch for, or multiple switches, etc etc.
Yeah well mine is a puoneer newest model, the reason I don't wanna put it with the parking brake is cause then u can't c videos while driving, so if I ground it it should get?
hey evryone im new to the caliber world. i just baught a 2008 se, blue. i cant figure out how to remove the shift knob to put an aftermarket one on. any suggestions would be greatly apreciated. thanx!!!
hey everone! Here's some pics of the tripple gauge set up,oil,volt& a narrow band a/f, ya i know i need to upgrade to a wideband. carbin fiber wrap around the dash kit. An still looking for some more ideas!
Sorry to be a little off topic, but I've always wondered about self-modifications. Do we have to declare this stuff to the insurance companies? I'm pretty sure they won't cover any additions or instalments that are too wild and that change the basic integrity of the original components...
I was wanting to do my dashboard trim pieces around the radio to match the exterior. Did your paint leave a sticky residue? What type of paint did you use or what did you do to it to keep it with the same texture?
What was the process you did to paint your bezel around the radio/climate control? Also, what type of paint did you use to keep the same texture and not get that sticky feeling that some paint leaves?
I think that there is no need to tell this to your insurance. That's what I did. Never informed them but I think if the modification that you would do is really big and might affect some parts of your car to not work properly then maybe you should.
Slowly customizing my wife's car into a party and a little sporty one (but just for the interior). Added some blue and pink lights on the side of the door. Also DIY our old mat and painted it white but I used a paint for rubber. The result was not as perfect as I thought but I can't find any white rubber mat. My next task is to install a disco light on top but don't know how to do it. I don't want to buy a battery-operated one online. I want something that I can control.
