Went back to weigh the car today. Driver’s seat swap and front CCM rotors shaved 80lbs! Well, not exactly, only had 1/4 tank of fuel compared to half when I weighed it last time. It should be in 3700’s after I swap the passenger seat and install the rear CCM kit!

I was looking at the new V1gen2 today. I have never once had my original V1 let me down.

I got fed up with constant beeping several years ago, been RD free since. I did order a Uniden R3 when they first came out and TBH was a bit overwhelmed by all the new settings and such that needed care and feeding. I ended up returning it.

A RD isnt something that I get very excited about, I want plug-and-play and I want no false alarms... seems that my expectations are too high LOL

I love your build, keep up the great work!

so far so good with this one. Very quiet as long you know what bands/frequencies to turn off. Pretty easy setup with the phone app. No false alerts so far.

Tell me more about that bracket. That looks much more secure than the suction cups, not to mention that the placement is perfect.

The composite seat looks cool, but the material looks slick? Is it grippy or do you slide a little with it?

Thanks, the material is actually grippier than the factory seat, it is really soft leather, the bottom and back cushions (with diamond stitch) use a softer foam so I kind of sink in it.
