E85 3.0SI - new project thread

Post by coldel » Mon Apr 29, 2024 5:42 pm

I will get a pic later of the phone mount, i did the lazy wiring option but I am trying to figure out a cleaner install once it warms up and I can work on the car with the roof open.

And I never considered a seat belt cover, until you mention the belt cutting into your neck! I am 5 11 but have very short legs and a long body so find this happens a lot! Might have to invest...

Lovely when you get a new windscreen . Had one on our old car and the difference was amazing but the novelty soon wears off :) Probably a good time to get it protected :thumbsup:

Here is my lazy phone mount install. I prefer to have the phone within the dash if you like than perched on top of it.
Need to work a way to hide the wire.

(scuse the knobbly knee was off to play football!)

Nice upgrades so far.

I’ve noticed the seat belt digging into my neck on my E86. It’s ok if I have a hoodie on or something with a collar, but it’s a bit annoying when wearing a tee shirt or similar.
