Deadmau5X: MOAR Mods 'N Stuff

[Rmondoh]

Also, I think your car should be 'DeadmauX' (pronounce it dead moux or whatever), seeing 'Deadmau5X' always throws me into 'dead mau 5 X and that is just blargypoo.

Hah, or you could not just steal techno dude's name for your car, what if he owns an evoX? What will he call it? ;)

[Rmondoh]

I think he will be just fine...I mean he named his cat Meowingtons. I can't even imagine what he would name his evoX, lol!

UPDATE!

So UPS delivered the defective Whiteline rear sway bar yesterday. I took the 1st one out of my trunk, opened up the box I got, and stuck it in there so they could come back and pick it up today. As it turns out, they delivered my Perrin rear sway bar today AND picked up the return package! Awfully nice of them. :)

So I open up the Perrin and it looks great. Nice, red, and shiny. So I open up the bushing and saddle kit and process to assemble it to see how it will all look. Check it out below!

This looks nice!

So what's wrong with this side?

There is no way I'm even going to try and put this bar on. If that one side doesn't even let the bushing sit flush with me just putting it on there and moving it to hit the stopper tab, there's no way it's going to fit properly on the car. It looks like that stopper was welded on at an angle, thus not allowing the bushing to sit flush. *sigh*

Looks like another email is going out to Bill at MAP with pictures showing that this one is not going to fit either. Now I know I haven't tried putting it on, but honestly with pictures and fitment looking like that, I really don't think I should even waste time trying to put it on.

You guys running the Perrin RSB on the X, did yours fit or look like this? Do you remember at all? Should I at least try to put it on once before I write Bill back?

Thoughts and comments please? :(

Just put it on, not like a ton of torque is going to be put against that stopper. I bet you'll forget about it once its on and you drive the car :)

Mine must have been an older version as it didnt even have the stops welded on each side. Honestly when you bolt this thing down the one side will straighten out I bet you wont even notice its static state. The bar will move a bit side to side, so the tightness may not matter much. I say try it at least.

I would just elongate the holes in that bushing holder with a dremel until it bolts up. Screw quality parts that fit right away. Working for the prize is so much more enjoyable.

I vote we at least try installing it. Wouldn't hurt to shoot these pictures to Perrin though and see what they have to say about it.

I bet it was designed that way. Bushings on the bar without even attaching it, arent going to line up perfect the way you think it willl. The car will suck the bushing into place if its supposed to be up against that flat side.

Most sway bars dont even have that welded flat side on the bar at all.
