None so far! knock on wood...

Since the phone fuse is unused (unless you have the phone) I figured I was safe. Fooling with the electrical system always make me nervous, though.

I tried to use that ground lug, but couldn't get it loose!

I twisted pretty hard but it looked like something was bending, so I gave up and found a torx screw at the top of the fuse panel that screwed into metal and connected to that.

Thanks for the info.. Was the wire to the V1 difficult to push into the dash and A-pillar?

No, not really. I used a 'pick' tool to help pull the 'A' pillar vinyl

It's on very tight. I used a 1/4" ratchet, and held the lug with my other hand.

Use the phone fuse...

The spade lug on the V1 hardwire kit slides right into one side of where the fuse for the phone would go with no problems whatsoever - easiest "hardwire" project ever...
