New subs, mirror got broke off by someone in a big pickup truck, then I replaced both with a set from ebay for $50 (Compared to the price of Orileys (1) mirror on passenger side for $130)
White LED's, I don't have a very good picture of the drop yet, I'll be sure to do so, only one of these pictures is dropped.
Need to get a better pic of the subs, I got 3 of those 12's for a camera, one of never used, so I took the one with the more obvious cone damaged and traded it for an amp, and then bought the wiring, they bump HARD.
The switch on left of radio is hooked up to the remote wire, so it shuts off amp if I see the 5-0 nearby, or just want to good ole music.
looks good man id like to see this with some nice wheels.
I should be getting those 17" wheels from dgooy88, in two or three days.Quote:

You raised it up?
It still has the lowering springs on it, that picture I took was on an uneven surface, so the car was tilted upwards toward the camera, the 17's took 'er up a bitQuote:

Fog lights installed. Going to order yellow film and Halo headlights within the next week.
how did you change the turn signal color? @MikeC06 Is it the 2 bulbs on the side from the e-brake light?
how did you debadge the front grill?
I don't remember right now, but it's the top outter two bulbs, just turn your hazards on while your cluster is out but still plugged in, and you can see them light up from the backside.Quote:

OEM replacement from amazon, $35/ea or so.. not bad with the quality and clean look.Quote:

Did you already have the wiring then if they were just replacements?

Highs

Nones
Looks like I need to re position them, the highs look towards the ground a tad bit.
are you gonna a change the after market projectors in the future? I've heard of a lot of people that end up doing it and loving it that much more then the orignal output.
Possibly, these halos don't allow for HID's, possibly because of the heat I guess, but if the changing of the projectors allows for HID's, most defiantly will be doing it.Quote:

Fiberglass versus fenders maybe.
Window tint.
New disc brakes.
An alignment, due to this winter and a curb.
New wheel paint eventually, maybe new wheels.
New radio probably bluetooth, just blew mine, smaller subs (Probably 1/2 10"), mtx comp speakers all the way around, and then whatever else my mind can come up with! :D
Did you have to buy those Halos? or are they after market plug and play? Need help LOL
I have one 12" sub, replaced radio with aftermarket that had Bluetooth, we also replaced all speakers including tweeters. Definitely worth it!
As for tires I'd like to up size. Nice rims that aren't to rice are hard to find (at least where I've looked)
How do you like your tint BTW? Does enough light get through?
Someday I'd like to turn it into a rally car. We'll see :cool:
I have halos that I installed, maybe I could help you?Quote:

I just hooked up to my front turn signal running lights.
For reference, Brown wire is running lights, black is ground, and orange/yellow is the turnsignal.
Wire white to brown, and black to black. Yellow to yellow.
Took about two hours, but it was ****ing cold outside.
