    Yes they are very easy to install. The only thing I had to do extra was adjust the headlight. With the projection headlights the light was pointed to the ground. I love these lights for $100 you can't go wrong.

    Yesterday I installed LED bulbs to replace the Parking Lights and to try and match the LED Lowbeams that were installed the night before.

    Funny thing is that these were the only LED bulbs I didn't use when I bought the 15 piece set (to replace all interior lights, rear license plate lights, front parking/marker lights, etc.) 5-6 months ago.

    Looks much cleaner now!

    I've never been a huge audiophil, but can definitely tell when sound isn't up to par. I'm fine with the sound of my unit, but I have non jbl. I just changed EQ to rock or classic and turn loud button on

    I've actually went over speed bumps (not knowing it's there, pavement markings are faded) at higher speeds and the front bumper always barely clears it.

    If it was any lower, I would definitely be bumperless.

    Excuse to get the G's.:D

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys and the initial suggestion of an alarm. I suppose luckily for me and my wallet (or lack thereof) I decided to use my 30's to be a professional student so mods are going to come at a snail's pace - I suppose fitting considering the general thought about us hypermiling Prius types ha! Gotta jet, but thanks again! And dang, I can't even look through this page right now, there's just too many crazy build Prius to create wants with haha!

    I just bought covers, I only took them out because I'm doing a thorough cleaning tomorrow! lol, I'm only tipping the iceberg compared to you guys! You all are really bad, but modifying is fun. I will post fog lights and DRL tomorrow! Here is a blurry pic of DRL with my wife driving this morning:
