    A bath was on order today, really needed to get rid of all that salt. :) she looks much better now, at least until I drive her though the nearest puddle from all the snow melt.

    I also added my new Proclip. I ordered a 6 ft black lightning cord from Monoprice for $10, which didn't fit, of which Proclip states to specifically use the lightning cord that came with the phone. Unfortunately none of the the cords that I have seemed to fit it anyways, but fear not! I was able to use some small black heat shrink tubing (1/4 in) which I stretched with a pencil so it would just fit over the top of the cord, but I needed a second layer to make a tight fit. It fit's really snug, and doesn't move and aligns perfectly with the phone - it would be a pain to try to pull it apart. I was initially going to try an route the cord under/behind the center counsel, hence the 6ft cord, but didn't feel like trying to pull the lightning cord out of the Proclip once I got it in. So I just pulled up the cup holder and ran it under that, the sides of the cup holder fit snuggly, the front has a small gap over the cord. I could probably make a small notch with a dremel in the future, but over all it works and works well :)

    (y) I plan on painting those carmate ones, too. I actually have the black ones.

    This is the one I painted today, the Toyota one (sample pix)

    But the one I got was light grey, nothing like photo. It's still drying.

    Thanks. Does it have to be both front and rear bars? If going for only one, which would you recommend?

    Hi TopRamen. Do you have any pics of the low beams? I was planning on getting the same exact bulbs for my Lows. It's just a straight swap though right? Many thanks! :)

    I really like the trim along the door panel. Where did you get that?

    Mods are all about trial and error. Part of the game. It's fun that way.(y)
