There are metal brakets that come off the a-pillar to bolt the grab handle onto but I think I can cut them off

The interior looks nice, I like the glow. At some point I'd lose the stock radio and go with something that matches, but it is sharp.

on mine I havn't done anything and the stock plastic cover keeps pulling out. I need to put a screw in it to hold it. What I would "like" to have there is an led that lites when the e-fan is on. that would be pretty cool location for it.
