Actually, it's the 5th yr inspection...yeah..2nd round I pass...Morning went to Vim to repair horn, then go first round inspection at ST Sin Ming, failed, go back to Vim take out bottomlines/ V-lip, then go back ST then passed... ...but I really tink they juz want to give me trouble lah..coz they could hav juz easily let me off wif juz a warning for these minor infrigements..my friend went to inpection about 1 month back at same place with same protruding V-lip and not even a comment... ...Tink they tried very hard to look for a 'major mod' coz about 4-5 of them crowd at my car and shone their torchlights in the engine bay and also in the cockpit..even under the dasboard looking for dunno wat..then, they called their supervisor out from the office for his 'opinion'..after some discussion, the supervisor went back in and they gave me the 'FAIL' report..The inspector told me "My supervisor said your BK protrude from the wheel...so have to fail"...actually the report got another item fail..covered quarter panel window..but they cancelled it and they told me their supervisor said that one actually not illegal coz not covering the passenger face....

As mentioned b4..my horn went kaput yet again..went to Vim to try to fix juz for inspection, but discovered the stock horn connector located inside was faulty..so the mechanic juz tapped directly to the source below using a long wire..it looked damn fugly and the wire kept on getting entangled when turning the SW..anyway, it was juz for inspection.. The only way to repair it is to get a set of that turning thingy holding the horn connector..either new (expensive) or 2nd hand (hard to get)..so, I decided to totally forgo a horn button on the SW and install a push button to act as horn somehwere else where it will be quite accessible for me..a relocated horn button is better than no horn at all.. So, after quite a long hiatus, I'm back to some DIY again...the CF on the SW plastic cover was quite badly done last time..coz I didn't take out and pasted in-situ..so quite ugly and peeling off coz I didn't wrap over.. Took out the cover (3 screws on the underside only, rest are clips) which revealed the internal of the SW wiring/ mechanism..looks quite cool exposed actually..was tinking to leave it like tat..but my wifey sure make noise.. Got some buttons, wire connectors and heat shriking wire sleeves at Sim Lim Tower..After some time, the cover was fully CFed and a yellow push button installed! ...Got 2 extra buttons (green and red) which were wrongly bought..dunno wat to do wif them...so I juz installed them as well...dummy of coz..but if I ever need to use them for watever gadget, can juz connect the wires.....guess they are there juz to further confuse pple, especially inspectors!.. ...and also got my self new GTR lights from Alex, DIY installed to replace the old pathethic ones (some LEDs already blown)..
