What did you do to your Emira today?

After playing on my M2 decided to try it on the Emira.

I did the sound deadener/insulation in the doors. I applied Second Skin Damplifier to the inner section of the exterior of the door and to the exterior of the plastic door panel. The door panel job was tedious. I followed the instructions provided on the Tweeter Upgrade thread. I’d like to thank @crestima for his detailed answers to all my inquiries. @KJWEmira also provided a great deal of information on his audio upgrade thread. The doors close now with a much better “Thud” than before. I’ve not driven it yet but believe it will be a much quieter interior space. Next up is to put some sound deadener behind the seats and around the subwoofer.

Went for a morning drive to Santa Cruz. Traffic was still heavier than I expected on south bound Hwy 17 at 7:30. Went to the wharf, said hi to the sea lions and just got back to the office. Still a pretty enjoyable drive, just shorter than I wanted. :confused:

Created a cheap MagSafe charging option with an Apple charger. Works a treat!
Couple of Qs
Where is the power lead?
Do you find that the phones moves too much to stay in the right place to charge all the time?

Power lead is under the rubber mat and down to the socket below - there is a handy hole in the top right that goes right through the console. The extra cable is tied up and taped to the surface above the USB port.

I've not stress checked the mount under serious load, but I think a combination of the magnet and the rubber is more than enough to hold the phone in place. I opted for the genuine Apple product as I think electrically safer than any knockoffs. Total cost £41 (need USB C adapter) and an hour of carefully cutting the rubber. Charger is held in place with some sticky backed velcro.
