Installed PRL intercooler today. Slightly disappointed with how heavy it is - 19lbs 6oz vs 6lbs 2oz for the OE IC - but it seems like a very high quality piece. Cooler weather this weekend makes the car feel pretty quick anyway.

Took mine into a random dealership next to I-95 a couple days ago for a new fuel pump. If you're putting off the recall work like I did... don't. :)

Was the start button panel easy to replace if you have it? Aaron is going to send me a vid but just curious, red of course. Red window visors coming too, anything tricky about them?

this piece?

been a while so i dont really remember exactly but i dont think it was too bad. Just depends on how much your willing to remove to make your life easier lol. I've torn my interior apart so everything is pretty simple to me now.

the correct way would be to pop off the gauge cluster trim piece to give space because the tabs runs under it, and slide back the center console because iirc there are slots on there that the center console slides into
but you can kinda work around it.

once you remove everything to get to the piece (shifter wing trim, climate control panel, headunit, faux carbon to the left of it, driver side under panel) you can see what else you need to do.

as far as the sun visors, that may be tricky your first time around.
move the sun visor to the side and you'll see this hole on the base with a tab showing. its kinda facing the windshield so its kind of a pain to look.

from that hole you will see these white tabs

Grab w/e tool you want to use (i used a right angle pick), push in the plastic white tab in and push it to the left (to the left looking at the hole so clockwise) iirc. if you manage to push the tab past the hole on the black base it will drop down. Just undo the elec connector after and its out.

Awesome help, thanks. I thought both would be simpler but worth it.
