    I thing you'll be impressed.


    I just added their V07 tire & trim spray, too.

    When I first put it on Sunday morning....I was slightly underwhelmed. It didn't have that glistening wet look that some of the other locally available products provide.

    I got off work this evening....some 60 hours after washing her & using that V07 tire & trim.

    It's rained a good bit in the time since Sunday morning's wash.

    It was dark when I walked out of work tonight.....parking lot lit by bright overhead lighting. I spot her 100 yards away and the tires and trim popped out at me the whole time I'm approaching. They have a clean & slick look without looking saturated and slinging that shit all over my clean car.

    I'm sold on their V07 line. The Black Light and Butter Wet Wax should make for the total span of what I'll need......other than some of their wheel cleaner on occasion.

    Their new car scent is really good, too. It's not overpowering or ridiculous....just seems like it's prolonging the original new car scent. After I give it a wash every 4-5 days, I'll spray some under the seats or on the rear matts.

    Let me know how you like it.

    Great stuff thus far, in my opinion.

    They are Subaru tweeters made by Kicker. They are available on Ebay, Amazon and your local Subaru dealer. Model number H631SFJ101 are an exact fit and plug and play.

    Do you have a link for these lights? I have OPT 7s in my low headlights now and would like to put them on my highs where I still have the h9s. Any recommendations with more light output than the 7s for the lows?

    Hi,

    Here are the links for the above turn signals and reverse lights

    921 back up LEDs http://amzn.to/2xI0Lnf 7440 LED turn signals http://amzn.to/2ij8L7s

    I think most of the budget LEDs are pretty close in brightness. I've owned 3 sets and had Jason G try a different set and I can't tell any of them being truly brighter out of the pack.

    I would swap your Opt 7s into the highs and see if you like the output as they may not throw that far. I can tell you for lighting up someone who cut you off...it works great! :)

    I'd look into HIDs for your lows if you're looking for better performance.

    It's actually not that hard. It's mainly just time consuming and having some patience. I did it in my '04 Hyundai Santa Fe right after I bought it too. If I don't mod right away, I won't mod at all.

    As for the video, I was able to start editing the Bed LED and Accent LED video. It'll probably be posted tomorrow. This front trim/voltmeter video will probably be done by the weekend. I've got in-laws over and will need a break from them.

    Really like the raked look you gotta out of it. Looks like an HD truck! I know I want to put a lift on my rear but not sure the way to go without adversely affecting the ride in the front of my Pro. Not sure if i can just add a leaf and if my stock Foxes will have the length to support the extra height.

    I don’t know of any other Pro owners just changing/adding to the rear leafs.

    I feel the same way. Take half of truck apart (not even all mechanical, lots of electrical stuff) only to relocate a USB plug and add a voltmeter. And to think about I freak out that I can not put back the OEM jack in the same identical location as it came from the factory...

    Got a great deal on a Toyota bed mat so I bought 2! Mine was delivered today and installed. The other one is for my brother! He will repay me with Yuengling next week! No. I didn't take pictures because you have already seen bed mats.

    Thanks man. It's settled a tad and I run a bunch of extra weight back there in the regular. But in the long run, I'm turning th efronts up an inch. Factory take of 1" inch higher in rear is my goal.

    I think you'd need to get longer shocks in the rear if you went up. But the fronts would be fine. If you got something like an add a leaf and some fox 2.0's for 2-3" lift in the rear, you'd be stylin.

    I like the dakars for weight bearing and flex. They're great springs imo.

    Did you use full icon rxt pack, or did you add the additional leaf? Did you end up putting the shorter leaf on drivers side? Thanks for your help

    I guess that's the difference between orion and myself. He obviously has both the confidence and skills to pull off a mod like that. I give him a lot of credit and wish that I had the confidence to even attempt something of that magnitude.

    It's really not that bad. Just some clips and screws. I moved that usb to my glove box when I first got the truck. Nice to not have wires running around the center console
