I have a black ashiko and we have had several days around 90. It is not bad but I don't have a vert. Especially after the AC runs about 30 seconds. My 08 with the premium interior package had an aluminum one that was insane. It'd leave the shift pattern in your hand.

Ashiko knob, thanks to recommendations here. I love it - shifts incredibly smooth. Since we're heading into July here and mine is a convertible, I guess I'll find out how much of a nuisance the steel hearing up is...tomorrow afternoon.:sun:

Steeda k-member brace. Shout out to John, Heather, and Scott at Steeda for helping get a replacement out to me (couldn't get the first one to fit).

I had the same issue with my Steeda K-brace. There was no way it was going to go on ... one bolt hole was too far off. The replacement K-brace went on perfectly, so Steeda needs to verify the bolt pattern is withing specs after the braces are welded up.

That color looks great. What color/finish did you go with? Did you need an adapter?

Thanks. It's the translucent red powder coat. Mine is a Rapid Red convertible, so it goes well. I just used the wide bore adapter that comes with it and it took all of five minutes to install. Really well designed. I was putting it on a stock gearshift so there was nothing else to deal with.

Started my Katzkin leather install and sound deadening. Finished the rear seat and deadening today. I will do the fronts 1 weekend at a time. The rear seats were easy. The hard part was climbing back there and using the peel and stick and mass loaded vinyl. Not many pics but here are a few. I was going to install the Shrader Performance rear seat delete I have new in the box, but decided to just keep the leather. If anyone I’d interested in the Delete, PM me for a super deal.

Looking good. I kinda wanna do this with their red leather. How much did you pay for the set and where did you get it?

The clay bar is the thing that made the biggest impact. And being that I am old school I use a paste wax.. I also brought my wife's truck back to life with clay bar and wax. Now I am going to spend the next few hours icing my shoulders and elbows

Reinstalled my stock automatic shifter back and installed street aero rear diffuser. I know people either love them or hate them, but I love them

Just throw a cloth or a spare towel over it when you park. It's not really the heat, it's letting the sun beat on it that makes it really hot.
