Funny you mention that, I was looking over your thread not so long ago after trying to find that Gentex mirror install. I've saved a few on my eBay watch list since. Very cool upgrade, it definitely gives the cabin a touch of modernization & easier than trying to find a black LCD mirror (in my case).

Does it's dimensions interfere with the sun visors at all?

No interference whatsoever!

Thanks for sharing the part numbers for rebuild. What symptoms were you experiencing when your starter was failing?

After doing a ls brake upgrade I was so tempted to do a abs delete, so I said **** it and ended up doing it
It took me about 2 hours removing everything out of the engine bay and one hour on a heat shield that covers the 2 lines that go back to the back wheels.
At this point I don't have any lines going anywhere, except for the 2 lines at the firewall that go back to the back wheels.
So next will be bmc to "T"s and then 4 custom bent lines to each wheel
But it does look clean, I haven't deleted the abs ecu yet, but somewhere in the future I will
Here are some shots of the bay
