Well I can honestly say the B&O is plenty loud enough for me. You are just reinforcing my plan to buy stock in hearing aid companies as I’m convinced all of you will be friggin deaf by age 60… lol
that all being said, I’ve been keeping a bottle of simple green (or something to that effect) in the trunk along with some microfiber cloths… spray down the gunk, get it good and soaked, and then wipe with microfiber, then hit it again with more fluid and gently buff with clean portion of...
I’m convinced that birds were informed that I bought the paint protection insurance coverage and are determined to put it to the test. I’ve had more bird crap on my car in the < 1 month I’ve owned it than I had in the 13 years I had my Explorer…. Little bastards!
yeah… as stated previously I do work in robotics research and autonomy. A few years back work sent me to an AUVSI Autonomous Vehicle Symposium. I walked out of there deathly afraid of autonomous cars. I know WAY too much about how they do and don’t work and where the pitfalls are and...
If it truly is using the car’s camera to read the sign, then welcome to the wonderful world of computer vision. It is NOT 100% accurate and perfect. Things like lighting angles, motion blur, lense flare, shadows, etc can cause inaccurate classification. (I do robotics research professionally and...
Right now I don’t have the radar detector set up at all.
90% of my driving is around town where I don’t really need it (literally nowhere to really open it up).
So I’ll just pop the suction cup mount on the windshield and snap the detector in and power it off the 12v cig lighter port in the...
Ok got the camera squared away with all 3 set up. Still need to do a bit of cable management as there’s no good place to tuck the wires for the power and the interior camera, but the rear wasn’t anywhere near as hard as I was worried about. I did end up with about 6-7 feet of extra cable that I...
Hmm,, well the A229 and the Uniden showed up today.
I tried running the uniden off the Mirror's usb jack - no go. Doesn't seem to put out enough power. When I plugged it into the USB port down near the charging pad, the R8 fired right up. Hmm... Maybe because I didn't have the car actually...
Hey gang,
Ordered both of these today from Amazon (had been thinking about both for a while, but nearly getting hit TWICE today by morons pulling out into my lane as though I wasn't there pretty much sealed the deal on the camera! And I have a few road trips coming up this summer that the R8...
Also, keep in mind that time of day and sun exposure can drastically change the PSI during the summer in particular.
For example, this morning I got in my car (parked outside but shaded) and all showed 32psi. When I go out to my car at lunch time, sitting with the left side tires in direct...
Yeah that’s what I’m thinking. Just gotta look around the area for one. There’s a number of things I want to add to the car between now and the fall.
I’ve been eyeballing this as well. But I need to find a shop nearby that can do the install for me. I live in a condo without a garage and have no place to work on cars…
Considering getting louver covers for the back window and the 2 rear side windows for my S650 ecoboost. Wondering if anyone has done this, which ones you went with and if you have any pictures if it you could post....
Other thing I noticed when filling out the forms they send you - that insurance means you are still responsible UP To the first $6500 in damages to the car! Ouchie.
