Well, not much to see here, but that middle switch is now hooked up to seat fans to cool my axx in the Texas heat. See the wire coming down from the center to the seat? Gotta get labels for those switches now. From left to right: Garage door opener, LED underglow, Seat Fans, and (soon to be) train horns. Last slot is an extra USB to allow a 2nd phone to hook up and charge with the stereo.
What was today's Sling project-Mods , goodies....?

Went over to my buddys house and installed the Welter Performance Dual Exhaust today. My god it sounds and looks insane!! The installation is pretty straightforward tbh we took around 2 hours just making sure everything was perfectly tight and fine. This is the catless version and its pretty loud without silencers lol. I would say for leisure days without silencers is fine but for highway long driving i would probably put them on. Overall i still believe this is the best looking exhaust for the slingshot period. Love it!

Yeah, mine stayed on jack stands all week. Hard to get to it during the week when you're putting in 14 hr days working from home.
You gonna make the tablet the stereo controller? I always wanted to make a tablet become the stereo. If I remember correctly, you have a bluetooth controller for your stereo? The problem was always how to charge the tablet and make it turn on/off with the vehicle. There are some videos showing how but I just gave up on it (not that electrically inclined) (or motivated).
So... I hard wired in two USB plugs. 1 will power/charge the tablet and the other will power/charge my Garmin virb.
I decided to go the headphone port for the tablet so I could still use my cell phone (if wanted) or someone else's for Bluetooth. My amp/controller can switch between aux in and Bluetooth.
The tablet has a SIM slot, but since I won't be using it too much, I'll probably just turn on Hotspot for YouTube, Spotify, Maps, etc.
As far as turning off/on... The tablet has a neat double tap screen to wake up (the scosche mount I'm using also comes off pretty easily when I need to access power button to turn off).

Slopoke said I should put some big knobby tires on the back of my quad and take it sand duneing. I wonder how high I can raise the front end with the DDM adjustables?
I want to see one raised up!
-
LOL, I need to find some cheap 18" or bigger wheels for the back then, I'll start looking around
Dave@DDMWorks so, how high can I raise the front with your coilovers?

We have tested a 1" raise with the coilovers before, if you want to get really crazy, we can get you longer shocks for the front, just let me know how high you want to go

That was one of my winter projects. Swapped the factory with seat covers for the full suspension seat. Let the wife pic the color combination. Haven't got too much time in the last few months in them other than the quick trip to work but so far I think it was a good choice.
I like your color combo. Always good to see something different.

Yeah, well, it's supposed to be mid-April...
we had snow last night and tonight's low is supposed to be 26 F.
The Captain is often chilly when riding, I'm sure we'll get plenty of use from them!

I understand, I've offered the gf heated seats, so far, she has said no. However, her car is required to have them
