    whoa! Looks really good! Love the wheels and the stance. Please provide details! How big are the rims and tires? Again, very nice.

    I'm busy installing some Rockford Fosgate P165-s component speakers in my front doors.
    I already installed P1675's in the rear. Here's a photo of the tweeter attached to the factory bracket.

    Wow, sound is amazing compared to the stock garbage paper speakers!
    Now I need to buy an android auto head unit but they're all so damn expensive, cheapest I found is the Pioneer Avh4100-nex.

    I got my 2014 C in October. I love the car, but really wasn't a fan of the steelies/hubcaps. So i started the search. I wanted to stick with the stock 15", i have never been a fan of the huge wheels, plus they can get expensive. So, after looking around for a few weeks, i found a set i liked at a good price. The wheels were a bit under $300. I bought a set of lugs and had them mounted and balanced for a total of $75. For a grand total of under $400, i am happy with the results.

    The rims are 6.5" Yep, stock Goodyear assurance 175/65/15. I was on the fence avout replacing them since they were around 6-7/32"s, but decided to use them. I should be able to get at least 10K more miles out of them.

    I just ordered a set of LED headlights. I know there's a debate about them, but for under $60/pair with next day delivery, I couldn't say no. The same price as halogens, longer life, and we'll see how they perform after I install them tomorrow or the next day. I'll try and post before and after pics as soon as they're installed.

    The package has arrived, and the lights were installed right away! Here they are in the overcast morning. I'm looking forward to seeing what they're like tonight.

    Edit: Wow...you really can't tell the difference between the two in the pictures, but the second picture has the LED on the right side, halogen on the left.

    You can see the difference in the Kelvins when you're looking at it in person, or in the up-close photos.

    Nice! I wish I'd have waited for the push button start...but the nice red C was only trim level 1.

    One night with the LED headlights, and I quite like them! I had my girlfriend drive in front of me, and she said they were bright...very bright, but she also had the passenger mirror adjusted too low.

    Nobody flashed me, the cutoff seems nice and sharp, street signs are illuminated nicely, and the road in front of me is illuminated clearly.

    The only complaint I have is that the cutoff is too good. After the cutoff, the road is quite dark. Great for driving in town, but not as good down a dark rural road. Mind you, it was the same deal with the halogens, so that's what high beams are for.

    I'd like to replace my DRL/high beams with LEDs, but I'm not sure if there's an LED bulb for that. I'm going to do more searching and see.

    I also tried some LED bulbs, light output was good, cutoff was good, but the distance was bad. I returned them.

    Then I got some HID and all is well in the world. Go for HID my friend, you won't regret it. I recommend the inovited 55w 5k from Amazon.

    Added a clip-on blue convex mirror. It actually works really well for cutting down the glare from headlights at night. I considered buying an OEM autodim from a Prius v but didn't feel like dealing with the wiring.

    Nice... What is the size of it? I looked around and found couple of 30cm mirrors on ebay, they kind of look huge
