Don't forget to order the antenna adaptor. Waiting for the amazon delivery today so I can test it out tonight.

Ahh ok.. Didn't realise it wouldn't fit the stock connector. Thanks for that.

Stop whatever you are doing and buy this little gadget. It's slick as hell. I personally think it sounds great. The volume does drop a little but who cares. Crank it up. Sounded crystal clear to me. The microphone picked up my voice perfectly from the stock location. Totally a stealth install. Worth every penny.

Transit Blu Install

This is a great little add for the factory radio. Totally stealth. Works like a charm. I'm tickled pink over this $100 upgrade. Don't forget to order the antenna adaptor.

Factory microphone location works perfect.



Hidden from sight. Easily accessible.

Geez, why did you have to go and post that picture?! I have been trying to resist sending mine off to get the same treatment. That sure looks great

Patrick Dempsey

Really nice dude. Showed up to the local Porsche meet in his 911 R. Had him autograph my trunk lid.

Is that Palmer? I was there last year. In case you're interested, Brey Krause told me this was the tape to use to protect your roll bar paint from the extension clamps -

Club Motorsports. New track that literally just opened. $100,000 a year memberships. Will eventually have condos with garages that go right out to the track. SCDA ran there last week.

Quick question, why do you store the car for the winter? It's perfectly capable in cold climates - I daily mine, and have just driven home through the snow (massively fun).

I'm sure the car is capable. Drove a Miata for several years year round so not afraid to but I like to take care of my car and I have a truck to drive. New England winters are especially harsh on cars. Lot's of sand salt and chemicals used to treat the roads. Why sandblast my car and have nasty looking corrosion on all the metal bits if I don't need to? My car was from the south so the undercarriage looks brand new. Want to keep in that way.
