Flywheel lightening and balancing...

Alpine alarm installed by Rapid Radio...

Howdy, I have an Alpine alarm with Microwave sensor installed. The guys at Rapid Radio did the install and placed the Microwave sensor under the carpet just above the back of where the centre console meets the rear deck area.
