Finally got my dead TPMS replaced. I'd bought a new one back in April, but just now got over to a shop to swap them out. Then headed to the tint shop to have them redo my windshield because it had a few wrinkles right at eye level on the driver side - small, but drove me nuts. Then when I got back home I programmed all my TPM sensors. While I was airing up the tires afterwards, I decided to try my hand at cutting off the bolt that keeps the seat from reclining all the way. I still need to grease up the end threads, but I'm really impressed by the difference! I didn't bother with the driver side just yet because it's a pain to try to do using my drill with a dremel cut-off wheel (my dremel broke and I haven't replaced it yet). Shortly after I came in to cool off a bit, the mail ran and my Airaid MIT was here, so I got out there and put that on real quick.

Full recline mod on passenger seat, with driver seat fully reclined (unmoddified) for comparison:

So far so good, but I can't speak to longevity since I've only just got it put on. I will say it was the fastest to program, maybe because it's new, maybe because it's better than oem, maybe just a coincidence, Idk.

I think I have the perfect frame for your rear plate, I'll check when I get home. It's black carbon fiber just barely wider than that white border. I have one on mine. If I have it still you can have it if you want it.
