    I thought the same thing. If I would have poured a coke all over the patrol car, that would have been ok?!?!

    Wasn't expecting a 4300k bulb to be that yellowish, thought it would be more white. Will probably swap to a 5000k in the near future.

    Thanks for the help and upload Sean!

    Well, it really wasn't done today but Saturday the Sub/Amp went in and its amazing. It's an understatement to say its way overpowered in such a tiny little car.

    The junk in the trunk

    And the sub

    This is the best box I could imagine in this car. I've had a system in just about every vehicle I've owned and always lost some trunk space. Half the beauty of having a sub/amp in this car is I feel like I'm not making any trade offs.

    It is funny though, I thought I was done when I turned the stereo on just to realize that I now need to start hunting rattles...Let the games begin!

    Nice. Have you ever had any issue with risk of trunk cargo hitting the speakers?

    Finally got around to putting the HID kit on and some LEDs for the parking lights. Next job will be the fog lights.

    Something hitting the speaker is the biggest concern I have. The cone of the speaker moves about 1.4" (if memory serves me correctly) so I have get some kind of grill that will cover the speaker while still allowing enough travel space. No issues yet, but I'm very careful. Most of the time I keep the trunk empty anyway to make things look more neat. My bigger concerns were a:being able to get to the spare; and b: being able to get luggage to the airport (my parents travel a lot and I'm the cheapest chauffeur in town.

    where did you buy those headlights from. Is that slight glow on the bottom of the headlight a light source only found on jdm?

    I reverted back to my original Toyota tail lights.

    I got rear ended in city traffic the other day. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't have happened if I wasn't luminosity challenged.
