I have put in all my orders for the install:

HUD with DashTronix V1 and Prog. shift
DSV Steering Wheel (Mock-up attached)
DSV Shift Boot & **** (A6)
DSV E-Brake Boot & Handle
DSV Console Cover
Apsis Airbag Cover
Gauge face overlays
More Clear-Bra from Pleasant Details (Fender spots behind each wheel - Lotus-style, rocker panels, door handle areas and trunk press-down area).

What are you other modders having done?

its like a shift light. Once you hit so high of an RPM (generally for paddle shift car) it lights up and tells you to shift. This is projected through your Heads up Display.

As Andrew stated, but there is also a Valentine One (V1) module that displays the detector info on the HUD, with the option of having one or both on the DIC. I plan to have the V1 on the HUD and the Shift bars on the DIC (just Google or forum search DashTronix). It also allows you still use the WindowValet as well. A REALLY ROCKIN' COMBO ...

Default Install party dinner

PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE:
We made reservations for an "Install-Dinner" and group-cruise for Friday night, Sep. 2. It's a great restaurant on a marina and a nice drive along the beach, great views and good food. I need to get a head-count (I'm guessing 10-15), so please let me know you can make it. We'll leave as a group from the install location around 8:00 -or whenever Andrew gets finished. It's a 20 minute drive:

Morgan Creek Grill <CLICK HERE>
#80 - 41st Street
Isle of Palms, SC
843-886-8980 (far right circle on map)

The install is at Pleasant Details <CLICK HERE>
875 Walt Miller Street
Mount Pleasant, SC
843-568-0247 (far left circle on map)

There is also a Cars & Coffee event nearby on Sat. morning (9/3) from 8-10am: <CLICK HERE>
Atlanta Bread Co. (parking lot across from front)
Mount Pleasant Towne Center, Location #3
Mount Pleasant, SC (center circle on map, photo from last week atchd)

I live near the install location so call me or email me if you have any questions about the install location, accomodations or the area in general:

Seems several of us are arriving on Sat. (I had no idea, sorry?), so I'm switching this to Sat. night for the official cruise-dinner (but we can do one Fri as well, lots of places on the beach and nbd). We will leave from either at my house after cocktails or from the install site

Please pass the word around. Thanks.

Savannah area, but its just a matter of which days to secure off. I drive OTR so I take about a week off at a time, however my brother is supposedly coming home from Alaska (USAF) for the fist time in over a year in September. He wont be sure until atleast Aug. 19th ( )apparently and frankly, I havent seen him in that time and spending a weekend with him would be outstanding.

Honestly I am just waiting to hear from him if he is going to make it down or not. If no, I have no problem taking my week home to come to this install-party!

However if August 19th would be too short of notice, Id understand

Actually really good night pictures from a cell phone. So I guess you did not have iPhone film thingy on the windshield, or did you? Can't wait, I really miss that from my C5 ...
