    How hard was it to change out the cluster? That part looks intimidating.

    Completely disassembling the dash just to get the cluster out. Then u have to disassemble the cluster to change out the LEDs & apply the color filter of ur choice

    I haven’t tore the dash down yet. Will be something I’ll end up doing though

    Bake on lowest setting. I did 250 degrees for 10 minutes. Pry open. There’s screws holding it in place and forgot how many since I did it years ago. Unscrew those before you bake. If your not feeling up for it.... there’s a set on eBay for around 200 bucks that are black.

    It has a hole on the passenger’s side. He hit a big rock. I covered it with a rubber piece. Probably I’ll bondo it out later. But it will do for now.

    Got my wheels installed yesterday. :) It was a fun adventure. I learned lots. Had lots of fun with costco, they where super nice. But apparently they won't release the car if they think the tires are too low. (ordered 195/55/16 but they replaced it with 205/60/16). Sadly they told me one of the rim is slightly bent so i'll have to replace in the near future.

    I love the blue! and the 16s drive is great! But I know my mpg is gonna drop. :(

    I'm gonna leave it black since imo, it looks good contrast to the white paint..
