    Sounds like a no-go on the K&N. I'm installing a double-din Pioneer head unit tomorrow night.

    New sound is on my list as well. I want to put sound insulation ahead of this modification. With the present road noise, a new head unit would be a horse before the cart thing.

    I want my music to be heard doing 80 on the xway as well as carry on a conversation with my wife at the same time. Presently, its one or the other.

    Thank you guys for your input about seat belts. I will not take a chance to leave 300+ bucks belts at the airport, because some security guy will figure out it may be to dangerous to let them in check-in bag. Shipping to Poland is not economical option, as it costs many times more than shipping within USA.

    I think I will just order them locally - it will take about 2 months to get them, but no shipping cost, no tax and no risk. Local price is the same as price from for example camelbacktoyota on-line, only the lead time is longer. I'm glad LCA and UCA don't have explosives, so at least I can bring them with me.

    raamaudio is your friend.

    I did both doors and rear wall and it was a huge difference in noise reduction and huge improvement to the audio system.

    Depends on how much extra length. The tend to rotate the pinion up, and flatten the rear of the springs, hanging down in the back more than you want.

    Developed a really bad clunk sound, Sound like metal on metal in the front drivers side.
    Going over dips in the road or turning to the left made it worse.
    I did a little searching and it seems a lot of people have the same problem.
    I found what was causing mine and I could not believe what it was. I have attached a video to show what it was.



    At times it would make a really loud sound like a hammer hitting steel.

    Causes the leafs to go negative more before bump. More droop. More leverage on the leaf packs so they don't last as long.
