Got the Evo steering wheel installed. It was a real pain in the ass. The Evo hub connector is slightly bigger than the stock,

So the stock hub connector needs to be cut out and welded instead of mentioned above

sorry did not take pictures of the welding process, didnt have my camera,

but here is the end result

is the airbag functional?

**djakay** · 08-01-2010, 12:32 PM

^^ i haven't connected the airbag, the connectors are different. but even then it's not definite whether its functional until it deploys in an accident :(

if you need help with airbag, stop by my friends shop on Mcdonnald ave. We did this conversion about a month ago with the airbag.

time to upgrade my interior lighting

**djakay** · 03-09-2011, 02:46 AM

So today i decided to start wiring up for the K8055 controller

got my new super bright 12 LED dome light

They came with variety of disconnects, so i soldered one end for easy replacement

Also i added the aux wire for the controller

Also got my beefy power supply M4-ATX and the case.
The power supply is programmable via USB, start up/shut down delay, min/max voltage, trigger voltage, etc,.

Here is the pinout:

[GND] [GND] [USB D+] [USB D-] [ Vcc ]

[ NC ] [GND] [ AMP ] [PW SW] [PW SW]

Fabricated my own cable according to pinout

Installed everything into the new case

This USB hub fits perfectly inside the case

the bolts keep it secured

The case is really small, smaller than i thought.

Next to come.........
