New item for the Toyota Tundra guys!<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Hey all. Its's been a busy few years, life getting in the way, adulting, etc. So a buddy of mine asked me to help him design a mount for his Switch-Pros 9100 Power Switch Panel in his 2014-2020 Tundra. A few iterations later and we have this lovely beauty.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The pod is made from chopped carbon fiber that is infused into nylon. It is very durable, has excellent heat resistance, surface finish, and chemical resistance. Purchasing link is below. Please be sure to choose the correct version of your Switch-Pros panel, as they have changed sizes a few years back. Any questions, please email me. <b>These are made to order, and take about 9 hours to print. I can usually get it shipped out the next day but if there are delays, I will email the buyer. </b></span><br />

Email me any questions or start a NASIOC thread and point me to it if you want me to answer anything specific. The current one was locked since I am not a vendor, so keep it purely informational. No discussion about costs, etc. Thanks!</div>

For those of you that do iPhone repairs, this is similar to the #6, and #7 connector on the 3G and/or 3GS. Fairly straight forward repair. Customer was happy in the end to say the least :)</span></b></div><br />

Very busy for the last few weeks/months. I have also received quite a bit of emails from people regarding the infamous <a href="http://hectordtruong.blogspot.com/2010/05/iphone-3g3gs-3-connector-repair.html">#3 connector</a> and had to turn people away. NOT because I can't do it, but because someone else, or some other "shop" has tried and then went and totally fucked shit up. I say this in the most professional way I can, because some of these boards are FUBAR'd. Anyhow, I would like to tell anyone that is reading this, PLEASE DON'T LET ANYONE experiment with your phone!!!<br />
<br />
I have done probably thousands of these repairs now, and I pretty much started this movement! Haha. Google me (hectordtruong or krazy) and you will see a lot of activity regarding this connector, and myself. I will post an example of a failed repair attempt... from a full blown "repair shop."<br />

Although this may not be the root cause, sometimes it can actually help to have a proper, secure connection to these antenna grounding points. The dreaded #6 and #7 (3GS) connections are radio antenna points. Many of times people put their phones back together and they rush things, don't have proper lighting, have poor eyesight, or even just being careless, they can damage this little, fragile connector. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />

I have a 2004 Subaru WRX Impreza STi, it is my daily driver, and dependable ride. I frequent the mountains, like to ride bikes here and there, and like to just use my car to its fully capability. So this brings me to the purpose of this post.<br />
<br />
I like to run a roof rack on my car. Personal preference is function over form, but after awhile things start to look hokey and just not refined. Originally, I had the EDM Subaru rack for my car, which was specifically made for the European Subaru Imprezas.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://images22.fotki.com/v757/photos/8/83114/3663691/DSC04928-vi.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://images22.fotki.com/v757/photos/8/83114/3663691/DSC04928-vi.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a>A little known fact about Imprezas (2001-2007), is that they are all made with hidden brackets that allow for the provisions of the EDM roof rack. The EDM rack was tall, ugly, and noisy, although it fit perfectly without damaging my roof, I hated it. I then went to a different route, by modifying a Yakima rack that uses Q-clips, so that the clips attach to the existing "hidden" brackets, and not the window sill edge of the car. Here you see the typical set up and mine, modified.<br />

So this brings us to my idea, which was to be able to use the newer style Yakima Landing Pad and Control Towers with the older type Imprezas. These are the same type of racks used on the 2008+ Subarus, as well as BMW and Mercedes. The newer cars have a threaded hole in the roof frame which allow for the Yakima Landing Pads to attach to. My idea then came to fruition by way of a DIY I helped collaborate. The original was intended for a Thule set up, but I did all the research I needed for a Yakima set up. Here is the DIY post topic for that on my local forum:<br />

After realizing the pitfalls of drilling and tapping a fairly thin piece of mild steel, I went ahead and used Solidworks to CAD up a simple bracket. The bracket basically replaced the stock bracket and allows for a secure and strong alternative to other options. Which leads me to this, stock bracket on the car, and the CAD model bracket:<br />

I decided to enlist in some people I know to manufacture them for me on a limited run to see how they will do. They are strictly vehicle specific, but if you're me, and you love your Subaru, these are perfect for a strong alternative to typical roof rack set ups. SOOOOO... here are the prototypes! They are in raw form. The final ones should be made from 7075 Aluminum for strength, and probably anodized black or clear. They will include hardware, silicone, and you just reuse the nuts on your brackets. To get to them, you have to pull down portions of the headliner but it shouldn't be too difficult. These are specifically made for Yakima Landing Pads, using M8 bolts they provide in the kit. Thule kits have a different set up that isn't as robust, and don't look as streamlined. Final production versions will probably have only 1-2 threaded holes for to be able to vary the distance between towers, this minimizes cost of tapping an additional hole as well. Here are the pics of the brackets alongside the OEM flimsy one.<br />

Please contact me via email if you're definitely interested. I cannot technically sell these on my forum since I am not a vendor, but we can work something out. My email is posted all over the place in this blog. Once I test fit these on my car, I will give the word to get them made, and it will be done in no time. I am thinking end of February. The car is currently in the shop, so I cannot test-fit them. These are going to probably cost around the same as 2 sets of Yakima Q-clips, so they are definitely affordable. Thanks for reading!<br />

This could be the reason why. Took me awhile to figure out why the ribbons I was installing into customers' phones were not responding the the proximity sensor properly. There is a huge batch of bad digitizers out there. Mainly 3G I believe, but you can't be too sure. Here is a pic of the bad one versus a good one. Notice the right side sensor holes are lighter in tint, it should be like this, not like the darker one on the left. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images109.fotki.com/v146/photos/4/83114/8966045/DSC09485-vi.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://images109.fotki.com/v146/photos/4/83114/8966045/DSC09485-vi.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />I'll update more when I get some time.

<span style="font-weight: bold;">So before I get a million emails in regards to this repair, please know that this may or may not be a definite fix for you. I can do the repair for you, however you must understand that if it comes out to be something else other than the coil, it is out of my hands. I am continually learning about the inner workings of the Apple engineering so bear with me :)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">I do not know if this applies to the 3G as well, but if you wanna be a guinea pig, email me, and if you're wondering about the "jumper" trick, I've tried it and it didn't seem to work, more then once by the way, solder points were PERFECT as well. So I don't know. </span><br />
<br />
EDIT: This could also render the phone dead, as I had one that didn't respond well the the repair at all. Very weird, it was one of mine, but it is under warranty :)<br />

Well, this is what you SHOULD NOT do yourself....<div style="text-align: center;">So I get a lot of people contacting me in regards to getting their #3 connector repaired. Nothing new right? Well one day I get a package from someone, and when I came to open it up, I was flabbergasted (that's a $5 word! lol). Seems as though, one of my clients decided to take it upon themselves and repair the connector. Well, I just wanted to share with you, what <span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">NOT</span> to do. Luckily, I was able to save the logic board, it was not a pretty site however. <span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />
<br />
PLEASE, DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS REPAIR IF YOU LACK THE EQUIPMENT, AND MOST OF ALL, THE KNOW-HOW.<br />
