    this is fantastic.

    My 2017 lacks the wiring harnesse for heated seats and mirrors. I also want to run a rear camera, rear dome light and REAR HEATED SEATS!!! Without the interior in the way running the wires will be a breeze. I may end up liking my '17 a lot more in the future.

    Mirage owners look at the world differently than everyone else, but in a better way

    Thank you so much for this post, and I really appreciate the time and effort. I am planning to do the same, except I am thinking on how can you remove this? *image attached



    Since rocks and tire noise will come from this wheel-well, I' like to include that when I do the sound deadening.

    Those white things up front are styrofoam blocks. To remove them you just need your hands.

    You may want to check post 1 of the HOW TO below.
    It is about getting rid of noise, and also shows a picture of those blocks removed.

    The small foam piece on the lh side just sits on the floor, it has a locating tab so it doesn't move around. Just lift it up. I don't know about the one on the passenger side though..

    For anyone trying to remove the panel infront of the e-brake note that the side nearest the e-brake has hooks and the panel should be removed from the side closes to the front of the car. dont be like me and use a flat head screwdriver and break off those hooks.

    Also, OP has a tube/bundle of wires under that panel that go toward the e-brake i imagine its for the e-brake reminder light/alarm. My car only has a single brown wire instead of this black tube of wires.

    Thank you, I've now done the same for my own vehicle, just finished it today, except for the head liner, I didn't go as far the light colored trim, but maybe at another date..! I really would not have been able to do this if you hadn't blazed the trail for myself and others as well. Thank you.

    AMAZING post - this is in my mind for quite some time - soundproofing as it's quite noisy especially with CVT. I just need to buy the bitumen panels and find time.... I want to go one step further and soundproof the fenders and doors as well to kill the noise from the wheels/rain etc. Hope to share some post of it in the near future. Anyways - amazing post, thanks for sharing
