Yeah, get a normal sized (or even slightly large) flat blade screw driver in there and use a twist of the screwdriver blade against the plastic housing of the light and the spade connector on the wire.
I hadn't heard that. It's a little more temperate where I'm at versus Dallas, but honestly...
The puddle lights are a great small mod. Stupid simple to do with a small flatblade screwdriver. Took me 15 minutes and requires no disassembly other than removing the existing puddle light.
For $99, it's a stellar deal for how cool it feels to walk up to your car and see a lit up Blackwing logo.
Pretty sure the rear view mirror camera can be retrofit. There are posts on here about adding it as a standalone system. I think some people have even put it into the 4BW, even though it wasn't originally an option.
Stellar work, and thanks again for all the effort to collect photos throughout the install. Posts like this are what truly make these forums invaluable and you did a great job on the install!
I'd imagine my 4BW will be decently similar, and these pictures will help me in my plans for what I'll...
Just FYI, the lens on the puddle lights is knurled so that you can rotate it and align the light with the side of the car. Looks like yours go off diagonally quite a bit.
Love that it's understated. Any gearhead will immediately know where to look for it though. (Once they start rolling out and becoming more widespread.) Even more excited to get mine now!
What an awesome session. Good for you man!
I'm jealous the car people still get to run full course without the chicane. They force bikes to use the chicane on the back straight and it really ruins the flow and fun of full course.
Of course that said, they're basically totally kicking bikes...
An interesting idea, no doubt, but isn't the Magneride 4.0 one of the major enablers of the performance? I feel like at a lower price point they'd have to strip that and it would really take away a lot of what the BW has to offer.
+1 on this.
The V Academy at Spring Mountain runs an exercise on the difference that PTM-wet makes in low traction situations and it was beyond eye-opening. I turn it on every time now.
If I lived closer where I wouldn't have to be shipping wheels across the country to help test fit, I'd totally be your guy.
Regardless, I'm still keeping a very close eye on what you guys come up with. I'm definitely drooling on the SV104s or SV504s.
Agreed. Some CT4 Data/Photos would be awesome. I love your wheels, but being a bit more on the 'conservative' side, I'm waiting on a few others to beta test before I pull the trigger.
Or take Cadillac up on their offer for the Spring Mountain Driving Academy. You'll not only learn what the modes mean, but also what they do in practical application. 100% worth the trip.
