Did you check on the wiring for the light yet by any chance?

 

[RicoP5]

i believe I do but the lights were cut off it for a custom project. the wires i beleive are still there tho. so plug and bulb are not there. idk if thats what you are looking for

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Could you throw your spacers and MS3 wheels on the front so I can see how flush it is? Also, show how much thread is available on the studs. You can text me the pics

 

[JDM_Pro5]

The hell is that? I have those separated. Map lights up front and dome light in the back. Is this what it looks like without a sunroof? where in the car is it located? center, up front?

My front
Map Lights

 

[RicoP5]

Yep no sun roof :/ and center

 

[JDM_Pro5]

oh okay, never paid attention to any of the non-sunroof protege's I've been in

 

[RicoP5]

oh lol I see yeah that how the look lol

 

[JDM_Pro5]

You can hold off on the spacer pics. I got confirmation it takes 25mm spacers to get the front flush

 

[RicoP5]

lol ok mines were no where near that lmao

 

[RicoP5]

Got my coil sleeves for now

Installed my radiator brackets

Rack fully removed

Took left headliner off to get it done black

 

[JDM_Pro5]

^ was it a PITA to take down?

 

[RicoP5]

NOPE. takes a little time when you first look at it or hear from people that have done it before it sounds like alot. but its pretty basic stuff. unbolt bolts, take off like 4 of those clip on clip off clips and just unclip the side plastics a bit and take off pillars and it slides off.

gotta unbolt the roof light becaue there is a little clip covered by it FYI

 

[JDM_Pro5]

kewl. I'd like grey (off black) pillars and roof to match the rest of the car

 

[RicoP5]

Would be sexy
