This is something I've never heard about. Please give us some feedback after the installation!

finally finished the RSS 928 roll bar install with a friend. what we were able to prep (new hardware, retap, sanding..) resulted in it fitting almost perfectly. the rest was beyond our control.

at the same time, also deleted the rear wiper (with bumperplugs) as well removed the rear seat belts.

and while reassembling the interior, we noticed the seat belt anchor bolts were fubar'd.. so gotta order a new pair now..

When you install, make sure you don't wiggle it in. You can damage the internal soldering. I had one fail after a year of usage...not fun when your throttle shuts off at speed. Anyways keep it on red and you'll love the no throttle lag

I was interested in this e-gas spring booster module as well but Kevin UMW said not to bother with it.
I am still very interested in your feed back on it.

Quick wash and I fixed the loose sunroof switch. All the tabs holding the switch in were broken, so no resistance on the switch when it was pressed. I used a hot glue gun to create a bracket and it works great. I can pick the glue off later if I have to replace the switch

I've been chasing sunroof issues for a few days. Replaced motor and switch but still operates slowly. I've narrowed it down to the tracks in the cassette. I think they need to be cleaned and re lubricated, but to do it properly probably requires the headliner out and the cassette removed for a proper clean and re lube. Has anyone removed the cassette for a clean and how was the result? TIA

Thank you John! Couldn't be happier, have a unicorn here, pleased and happy that's it's rare and in a such good condition, like new.

It will get even better soon, your exhaust is almost here.
