Because i'm a hottie and let the chick think she might have a chance of sleeping with me if she just gave me my package; I managed to get away without having to produce "Mr Schydlo" ID.
Before I go any further, this was my cabin as of a week ago:
Here's a couple of quick pics; the quality is acceptable, but very far from perfect. The CF was cut out roughly, then not cleaned before being sprayed and my spray surface is pockmarked, scratched, and has one run on it. Not really impressed, but hey, the price was right.
Alright, onto the fitting. Anyone with a modified gear boot (like my thick leather one) will need to make some adjustments... a) to keep the plastic surround to which the bootie is attached still, and b) to allw the surround to come down further over the bootie and sit flush with the larger surrounds surface.
The pictures are pretty self explanitory, however i'll provide a quick overview. You make a small hole as pictured and then screw down the bootie (not through the bootie, but rather use the screw to pin down the plastic underpart), to hold it steadier I added a metal extension to the screw, this was in the form of a mecano piece trimmed down so it would fit flush inside the surround rebate.
You also need to trim down the upper tab shown in the pictures with the white arrows, this tab is what stops the surround coming down further around the bootie and sitting flush. Leave the larger lower tab, this is the tab which the above screw/metal extension pins down.
Mine sits flush with the surface, but not actually "inside" the rebate. It does not need any further fixing down, the surround while not budge from its position, even when aggressively changing gears (the screw stops the bootie from swinging up and down and dislodging the surround).
Here's my CF cup holder, be very jealous, cause it's teh sechs.
And some install pictures -
On to the glamour shots -
Cheers,
