    Rear turn signal lenses?

    So I bought these from Korea: http://www.ebay.com/itm/161723834641?item=161723834641&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME:X:RTQ:MOTORS:1123&vxp=mtr They physically fit the 2014 Spark EV; the mount points are identical. Wire harness/sockets/bulbs are included. The turn signal lens is clear; a yellow...

    Back up camera?

    Outstanding, solder! This is way over my head but still most interesting. -Bob K.

    NEMA 14-50 charging?

    Terrific plan, nev! Highly recommend investing in a portable EVSE that can do 240V. I've done enough road trips in my Leafs and Spark EV to know that it makes a huge difference. There aren't enough public L2 or CCS stations, yet, to go without it. It'd be much nicer if our Spark EVs has 6.6...

    NEMA 14-50 charging?

    Proper adapter? If you intend to use the EVSE that comes with the Spark EV, you'll be charging at campgrounds for days...literally. Buy a proper portable EVSE like the JESLA or Clipper Creek. Remember that the Spark EV will charge at 3.3 kW max from Level 2; 1.4 kW max from Level 1. -Bob K.

    Back up camera?

    Good on yer, solder. Keep after it. Your solution will not work for me as I use the OBDII port for Torque Pro. -Bob K.

    EV road trip

    Took a road trip to Charleston to attend a wedding. Used a Motorola Moto G + BringGo for SatNav, an old 7" Galaxy Tab + Torque Pro for monitoring data. Had time to play with MyLink movie playing. Damn the Lear 3.3 kW! :mrgreen: http://2014chevysparkev.blogspot.com/

    Back up camera?

    [...pullis curtain back...] Guilty as charged. I contacted Chris enquiring about his services on our MyLink systems. Welcome, Chris, to our world! Happy to have you! I've asked Chris if we can get a discount if we do a group buy. I've never done a group buy before, so perhaps some of you...

    Aftermarket Driver's seat?

    Yeah, the rails are the issue. We think the gas Spark seat rails/mount points are the same for the EV. Some gas Spark drivers have installed aftermarket seats, but information about that is scarce. Chevy (Z-Spec) made a special Spark EV for SEMA with custom seats (they don't look all that...

    JESLA

    David, Yes, it is expensive. I got a discount, but still... As for your questions: There are EVSEs out there that will display current, voltage, elapsed time, kWh, ad infinitum, but none that I know of that will monitor SOC and stop the charge. The Leaf can stop the charge when you...

    JESLA

    I just purchased a JESLA http://shop.quickchargepower.com/JESLA-is-THE-40-amp-J1772-portable-charging-solution-JESLA.htm It comes with these adapters that make it unique in that it can plug-in to almost any power source. So I've been playing with it this afternoon. It works great plugged-in...

    Aftermarket Driver's seat?

    Excellent! I've got a road trip upcoming Atlanta - Charleston, S.C. (leaving Atlanta Oct 28). I'd love to do it in better seats than the stock Chevy seats! -Bob K.

    Side Window Weather Deflector

    The WeatherTechs are inserted into the gap in the door where the top of the window fits when closed. The instructions show how to bend the WeatherTechs slightly to get them to fit. They stay in place quite well. The rear WeatherTechs have an adhesive strip on the inside of the top edge where...

    Aftermarket Driver's seat?

    I think the answer is "yes", but I do not know for sure. -Bob K.

    Bringgo

    I've spent some time playing with BringGo and my Moto G 1st Gen ($90 new unlocked on Amazon). Day 1: Connect to my 2014 Spark EV via Bluetooth. The BringGo opening screen on the Moto G says "this device has not been tested and BringGo may not function" or something like that. On my first...

    Aftermarket speakers?

    Unable to find Infinity X Ref-4002cfp using Google. Closest is Infinity X Ref-4002cfx. Crutchfield doesn't list any Infinity speakers for Spark. Any ideas? -Bob K.

    Helms Service manuals?

    Yes, David. Detailed as in allowing me to determine which circuits were power, ground, signal, etc. Invaluable resource. Invaluable in showing how to remove/reinstall just about every piece of the car...in exquisite detail. Written (obviously) by engineers...for engineers. This can be...

    Helms Service manuals?

    I can't say if the manuals are worth the money; I *can* say that they are quite detailed. Exquisitely so. They have been priceless to me in my endeavors to "personalize" my Spark EV. Highly recommended. -Bob K.
