  How-to front mudguards for vxr style pack 1 (maybe all)
Posted by: Jon_es - 27:th-May-2017, 23:58:12 - Forum: Exterior How-to's - Replies (9)

Righty then, i think tucpal has made a how to for the normal styling packs that you get and the rear for my 2016 gtc LE with vxr pack 1 went on perfectly but needed to take the wheels off. For the front i used a T20 torx screwdriver, 4 zip ties, a pencil, sharpie, a drill with various drill bits, a grinder, pin pliers, wire snips and soapy water with sponge. As always read this guide and familiarise yourself before starting

First you want to turn the wheel so you can get access (or take it off it if you want) and line the mud guard up to the arch and put it how it would go on. There will be material in the way but it will be taken off. Mark with your pencil where you need to take off material. [Image: 57979ccaceb9050f0c3975a45700de22.jpg]
I used a grinder because i found it easier but a jr hacksaw would work just as well. Then keep lining it up and looking to see if any more material needs taking off until it fits on how it should be. I found that it wont fit in the holes that it should but its okay as new holes will be made. Mark where you will drill the new holes and then drill it with a smallish bit (4mm?)[Image: 3921de0c874122c4864d83c0d02e9588.jpg]
I drilled with a 5mm bit on the front, back and the mud flap to put two zip ties on as the bit that vauxhall gave me wouldnt go on so zip ties made it really solid.
[Image: 5a3d52b110227dd3280fd6ad62e76787.jpg]
Clean it all once all the holes are drilled and let it dry. It says to use rubbing alcohol on the part where the tape goes. Take the cover off the tape and put it on and put the screws in and i put an extra screw near the top because it was poking out a smidge.

  S160/M072 Kotix Rom Discussion
Posted by: marcus01 - 26:th-May-2017, 11:27:56 - Forum: ICE - Replies (2)

Rusty, thanks for changing my other Kotix ROM thread to a sticky. 

I've started this thread to possibly answer any other Kotix ROM related questions. 

Patrick, in answer to your other question regarding the music player and bluetooth, this is what I have as my default music player. (In NewMusic folder/Internal name appears to be Music I ?)

This is the music player skin which comes with the new launcher. (Kotix April 2017 release)

Certainly not Poweramp, Poweramp could only have been installed via an APK file.
