    Yes, they make other colors but I cant remember what else. I have a list of the colors they sent on a sample sheet at home I'll dig up for ya. Here's a lil teaser of the head rests. Left is the newly painted, right is OEM color. Behing both of them you can see a head rest I had done 1 side of.

    Interior Spray Review

    Well for some reason the interior spray didnt turn out the same on the light grey 2tone on the seats as it did the dark grey rear headrests.... I'd advise not to use this on the actual seat, but would recommend for the headrests, visors, and floor mats. I am going to attempt this on the headliner as its the same material as the visors. Now... time to post a seat cover thread... :Grenade:

    I was looking forward to seeing how the seats would turn out with it.

    Anything new with the lightbar? I'm glad to see Shanks helping you out too. We conversed quite a bit to get ours working. lol Mine is plugged into the 4pin and the reverse and hot wires are the only ones that are hardwired, forgot to mention that to you.

    Yea, everything is weird with those lightbars. Before Shanks actually found out what we know now, I had mine hooked up so that it would only work when my running lights or headlights were on. Now the brake light is unlit when the lights are off and then lights when the brakes are on, the way it should be. Before, the turns wouldn't even work if my lights weren't on. I think I had the power wire spliced to the running lights wire of the hitch wiring originally.

    damm that sucks man.I was really hoping it would come out great on th seats.Thats the main reason why i wanted it was for the seats.$60.00 isn't worth it just for the headrests,mats and visors.Thats 60 i can use for more lights:waytogo:

    So I put my Volt Meter on VDC, then I stuck the black to the Ground peg, next the red to either one of the turn signals on the 4pin, and got a reading of 62.5??? I did this again to the other turn signal and thats what i got again, give or take a point. I'm doing something wrong aint I? See, thats why I'm just gonna go chop up the line, hardwire the whole damn thing. if that dont work, its crap and not my system.

    As far as the interior paint goes... dont use it period. my headrests have dried, but my damn sun visors are still tacky, a week later, and i've been using a 800W heat source. :flipthebird: anyone know if the homelink system requires a cable hook up or is it just a "remote" system put into the visor? thanks!

    I did get to try out the Dark Knight from Vatozone. Used it on my AC Bezels. 4 light coats, and its awesome! Put 1-2 light coats of clear on last night. It calls for 2 light coats, 2-3 heavy coats, so i'll do them today when I get home. Got the steps off the truck, and repainted the plastic. I'll be flipping the tape on them to do the dark knight on them too. if they turn out as sick as the AC bezels, next will be the rims.
