=[ R.I.P Minh...

Hey all.

I knew Minh, and my gf was childhood bestfriends with him. We visited his family today and have his funeral details.

It would be good to see all his friends and very close friends there. He lived life with friends around him all the time, so it would be a fitting farewell to have all those that knew him there.

My girlfriend and I have got permission to post up all the funeral details from his mum, uncle and aunty if you wish to attend.

RIP Minh and prayers are with the injured. Ill leave any other comments out, as I just dont know what else to say. This brings me to tears, horrible tragedy.

Just one question, I know of a few ricardos from here, which one was it? Not the one that use to own a white 32?...

so ur just gonna delete my posts and keep ur OT posts up?

i know ur new to this whole moderating thing, but thats not really how it works, u cant just use the moderating powers to help get ur point across, thats abuse of powers, generally not a done thing.

my advice would be to delete all off-topic posts including ur own, and sort out any issues via PM.

FYI, I've retained some of your posts by quoting them in mine and have deleted the original to avoid any further clutter.

How's this for a new Mod, one more post from you in this thread and you get a holiday....don't make it a permanent one.

I'm sending you a PM and an official warning.

This is the mindset of 90% of the people who bought a Sunday Mail from me this morning and felt they had to voice their opinion. Their comments are unjustified, but you seem to think they are 'fairly in line'.

Its all good; if they read the article they will see the hoon vehicle of choice is apparently VN Commodore driven by a P plater.

Teens and early to mid 20's decisions tend not to consider consequences. We have all made mistakes but no one deserves to pay for it with their life. RIP.

he went on to say people with expensive tyres generally aren't found doing burnouts and donuts

its a shame about the direction this thread went; were not meant to be debating media mikes kneejerks, the lack of a race track, or the 'heat of the moment' stupidity and emotions that caused minhs death.

RIP minh, deepest sympathies to your family and friends.

+1 this is a thread to let people know what happened not to all chip in your 2c at what went on...

sorry to any one involved and rip to minh, as for the other guy id say he will be dealing with is for the rest of his life...

just went past where it was on the way home and the lock ups are intense :S

guys please read post #127 AGAIN.......we're discussing tracks again which will no doubt lead to discussion of Mr Rann and possibly flamage towards the drivers again.

burkill, you've already received a warning from Dan the Man for this sort of thing in the Hoon thread so I'm not the only one that's watching.

This thread is about to be closed the way its headed unfortunately...........one more try.

I cant understand how this has gone from a thread to show respect to Minh and his family to a political banter about drag strips and hoon drivers. Yes the circumstances do not affect us import drivers in a good way, but put that behind you all for know and just show some respect for Minh and his family and also Ricardo, his passengers and their families.

    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
