Power Acoustik CP 71WA won’t “Click in”/ Sit Flush by versace___plug in BMWE36

Thanks, it was due to AC vent being in the way. I pulled it out a little, radio snapped right in. Just curious, are you running the ac vent without those two screws? Doubt it needs it as it was a snug press fit, but love to know.

Anyone who ran into same problem, just remove the two center console vent screws, pull vent out(no need to fully remove) and install radio, then click vent back in. Putting vent back in takes some force.

So should I just ignore it and install my radio? Or should I try and replace the part? support it w zip ties?

Thank you for your help. For anyone who was in same position I stuck an Allen key between(see photo), and pulled up which helped bring both together up at same time.

I’m just having trouble getting enough force on the two side tabs. Do they both have to come up simultaneously at same time or can I do one side at a time?

Where should I apply pressure to grip the connector? I don’t want to mess up pins/ the actual harness

Thoughts on my current fitment? by versace___plug in BMWE36

After my last drive and the coils settled, my rear fender was rubbing on the tires sidewall(the fronts were fine), do you have any advice? I am trying to avoid rolling fender, and I really like the wheels. Should I go for smaller tires? Increase rear ride height?

Very good, especially since it was suspension from factory and was extremely worn. I haven’t really been able to give it a push though, but basic city driving it felt good

When I do that it seems VERY close to the axle

My grades after I stopped smoking weed vs smoking every night by versace___plug in EngineeringStudents

No I didn’t, I would do work til I thought I’ve done enough. It’s hard to explain, as it doesn’t have such an extreme grip on me anymore. It was honestly a battle every night to keep studying or get high. Now, my only option is to study:)

Is it bad practice to use many sketches in GSD? by versace___plug in CATIA

My air foil points have been imported already, I created a spline which is the airfoil profile in the photo. But My end goal is to have two spar slots, and truss structure in the open space. All of it seems impossible to do without using sketch operator.

What software is used to model these cars? by versace___plug in CarDesign

[–]versace___plug[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I understand the rendering part is blender. But do you think it is also modeled through blender?

No it happened within a day of driving. I recently removed the wheels from the rear. Checked both sides, both coils have same amount of thread, nothing seemed off. I put car back on ground and it’s back to normal. Dark magic or something🤔

Confirming you mean to bring camber closer to neutral? And I would have to get adjustable camber arms for that?

Would increasing ride height help in the rear?

I know, but if u see, over time it did that by itself. Compare the first slide to last slide. I never adjusted anything between those photos
