Been a few days, have you gotten this installed yet?

IllusionX · 11-20-2013, 02:59 PM

No.. it's not installed yet. Temps are getting colder and having a garage full doesn't help.

As i still come around the forum during work time, family issues kept me from doing other stuffs.

patience guys.. :)

IllusionX · 12-03-2013, 11:32 PM

sorry guys... i've been busy, and now the cold comes.. I'm not quite sure how i could go and install the wrap lol..

i'll try my best :P

removing the steering wheel is not really an option.. i have a broken tab that holds the airbag/horn.

anyways.. i did have a test fit the day i got it..

They are basically re-branded A/D/S 346CS.. PrecisonPower purchased A/D/S.

I have an extra set of A/D/S 345CS, if you want i can sell the tweeters. One of the woofer have a punctured rubber, someone put a screwdriver through it.

Yeah... i've finally got to install it.. took me about 6 hours to do. Maybe because i'm too rookie. I've also made the string snap 3 times, so that made me start over again a couple times...

here is the install progress..

close up of the stitching in progress..

and finished!

It shouldn't be very hard, but maybe because it was my first time.. it took a while to get it right. And i also didn't stitch it the right way.. kinda went on my own. I also have black on black, so it really doesn't show the flaws and the improper stitching.

You can follow this guide, or search for your own to get the proper stitching pattern.

Great job on the steering wheel! Not bad for your first time sewing..

IllusionX · 01-16-2014, 04:57 PM

just an update.. i finally took the Yaris out of the garage today.

i feel the wrap is very slippery, or maybe i'm not used to it because it's made my steering wheel larger?
