Looks great. I was just about to try and put my new steering wheel on. I did my RS5 steering wheel which wasn't hard but airbag light was on afterwards, I was just going to follow this http://is.sewellparts.com/accessorie...2010/4857.html
If you disconnect the battery do you lose radio as I don't think I have PIN number.

How do you like the new car, do you find it much different the the pre update model? Any more mods planned?

Just noticed you don't have the silver around switches that update model gets, did you change them to black?

you dont lose the steering wheels. its pretty simple. just make sure you have a good memory on how you took apart the parts.

very easy mate
i took out the silver bits
and put the old black trims off my race car parts

iv had my 2009 ISF for a while
and it's been a great car
at around 70% of pushing the car i was always nervours with the car
but with the new model
i feel safe even doing stupid things
ie (power sliding with the tcs off)

I have steering wheel off now just changing over controls etc.
You pretty much have the same car as I bought except I have white interior. What are you going to do with your black one?

Wish I new you had a JoeZ system for sale as I just ordered an ISS Forged DES system and JoeZ intake from the USA. Personally I prefer the factory tips. If I like the DES for daily driving I'm going to try adapt the factory tips somehow if possible.

Did the previous owner install all the JoeZ stuff? if so that was a good pick up.
