Inspected the body work from having the vinyl door frame surrounds replaced. Kinda pissed off right now. Ask me in person, I can't/won't put the reason why online. Basically someone forgot to . You use a heat gun on new-ish vinyl, not a rubber wheel.

Should've just done this myself.

Yeah, Cobb need make a 90 degree cable connector so I can run it up thr the vent. If it was USB like my AP v2, it'd be done already.
