Love seeing the vn mate. With those sill trims at 4:10, pull out that inner strip that runs along it starting at the front of the car and then squeeze the panel to close the gap where that strip was and they will just pop out/off. That strip keeps the tension on the clips by spreading the trim panel apart

Hi There. Hate to say it after you installed the Eurovox. It’s not a VN audio system pretty sure that Eurovox came in VS’s. The VN audio system has a cool plug in where you can run your iPhone through the speakers. VN hands free. I have a real deal extra MCC-6830V system if you want to go through the whole exercise again. Watching your channel I think you will. Regards.

[@MindieJ]

its VN SS/Calais, only difference to exec one is it didnt have fade

[@qoop9266]

Do you think it would be good for a first car ?

Reason why that plastic sill cover was so hard to get out is because you are meant to remove the locking strip in the middle from it before removing.

[@MindieJ]

haha yes according the comments it turns out im the only one that didnt know this

[@haydenkurt]

That trims is removed by taking the little rubber insert out the middle and squeezing the top and bottom together just for next time 👌👌
