The black cladding looks worlds better.

Didn't even notice that you are from Idaho, Schweitzer is so rad. I'm 20 min. to Baker but I really enjoy riding over in Idaho when I get the chance

it has put a screeching halt on all my build threads on other sites as well, i have left people speachless and pissed off... how dare i put a useless piece of metal on my car... how dare i cut a hole in my bumper... i should be spanked and put in time out???


and although i disagree with your opinion, i respect your right to say it...

Well it is your car after all, but the tow hook seems pointless and just doesn't flow with the rest of the car. Everything else you did was mostly functional/practical.. eh, I'll still stay subscribed to see what else you do. Tow hook wouldn't be my choice though.

UPDATES:

and new limited SC mats..



i took zero pix of install, cause it was such a pita, it took me 8 hours of solid work.
removed seats.
removed everything.
wired up amp (97$ kenwood amp)
wire clamps dealies and ebrake rod extender, self taping screws misc.. (20$)
speaker wire (10$)
cig lighter and aux output (11$ @ junkyard)
the console itself/with mats (320$)

total so far 460...

didnt disconnect neg battery cable before removing seats so now airbag light is on...??

not satisfied with amp placement- under passenger seat; but sticks out just a lil bit and bothers me...

and cig lighter isnt working in console...


anywho- its a lot of work... looks great and feels great and the sub is nice to have...

I'm in no rush to switch them out, if I saw or ran into some honda center caps for cheap or someone wanted to trade me that'd be rad, but they really don't bother me all that much...
