Not sure why photos are sideways......

Not sure why photos are sideways......

Iphone I assume?

if so, its a weird iphone issue. I found in the past on win 7 where I would upload my pics first, I would rotate each pic, even if they looked the right way, move to the next and repeat so they all save the wrong way, then go back and turn them back, they save as you go to the next in the default photo viewer program on win 7. Then when uploading on the net, they were 100% the correct way

But come win 10 and 11 this stopped working as a fix for some reason and the program on 11/10 is woefully slow to flip though pics (progress huh!), works fine on linux though where they actually show the wrong way before posting on the net, so you can actually see which ones have done it and not have to remove and reupload to the forum. I believe it's something to do with apple and potentially other phones using non standard or corrupted meta data in their pics, so the standard ways websites interpret them, it reads it wrong an ends up some random direction. My hypothesis is phone pics sometimes contain meta data for more than one orientation and the websites reads the first one or the something which might not be the right way, I think this because phones have that automatic orientation flipping based on the accelerometer reading and maybe the software on the phone glitches and somehow adds more than one orientation to the same pic, coz I noticed pics that I know the phone did an auto flip during taking that particular pic more often than not were the ones that I needed to fix later, even if they did end up the right way in the end on the actual phone.

I found sites or programs that strip meta data out of the pics, will cause them to all go the same orientation as viewed on the phone.

Fitted some VE clubsport seats recently bolt in affair turns out despite what the internet says the airbags do not work on vy srs system so that sucks, still able to be certified but airbags must be disabled as my cert guy doesn't want to get into deciding if the vy cabin is compatible with ve airbag deployment........ everything else must stay functional though.

If anyone can help with that pm me.

How do you find the VE seats compared to the VY?

They feel lower and way less rooted these are Clubby seats so probably not a fair comparison though I did look at some just normal VE-VF half leather seats as well seem to just be better put together overall.

I got these out of a flood damaged car guy stripped them out and dried them but we're pretty filthy still 2 hours with rug doctor they look much better still wet in photos so look a bit blotchy. The vy seat rails bolted on vy motors plugged in to ve seat switches so that side was easy. Airbag location completely Different though.

I did message a reverse engineer to see about getting some sort of interface or coding done here in NZ and In OZ understandable they weren't keen i get that its high risk. I can fit resister and capacitor to trick SRS system into been happy and just not run the Airbags in seats legally here fortunately.
