Getting A New Complaince Sticker


Recommended Posts

hey gurus...

im respraying my engine may and id like to know if its possible to get a new or remade pink compliance sticker?? mine has had the corner peeling since forever ago... which is annoying me.. i cant removed the sticker to reglue it though as the silver/pink backing is separating from the clear cover over it.. leaving some on the firewall and some on the clear.

now im respraying the engine bay and ive taken the compliance and vin plates off.. i want to take the sticker off to do it properly, rather than mask around it and risk it looking ghey.. plus its starting to come off, so ideally id like to replace it anyway.

can i ring the mob that did the compliance and get a new sticker??

ring DOTARS but my advice is do not even try. my feeling is it will be an absolute carnt to do. definitely don't peel it off as they are self destroying sticker and will be ruined once removed. this is why most places put them in door jambs now rather than engine bays so they don't get damaged by heat etc.

if it were me I would glue down the corner and mask it up for painting. >_<

    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
