    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    Isn't that like a sabbatical? Asking for a friend.

    First Matrix mod: thing came with power windows and power door locks, but manual mirrors. The drive home showed me that they weren't going to cut it. And one of them wasn't really working. Some Google-fu and turns out that Toyota was nice enough to prewire for power mirrors. I popped the panel off where the switch was supposed to be and sure as shit it was there. I ordered up the power mirrors and found the switch and panel at a junkyard. Thirty minutes later and I had power mirrors. Hells yeah!

    The aftermarket following isn’t real big for the matrix…..yet. So, you will need to get fabbing.
    here’s some inspiration. 9B8BA870-8937-4EFF-AF38-62EA14D602CB.jpg

    I think we can make it all wheel drive with a string trimmer shaft and some bike chain.

    I was hoping more for a Celica GT-four drivetrain out of the ST205, but we can make this work.

    Curious about Matrix mod number two? A self-dimming rear view mirror with garage door openers. And compass.

    You can't make this shit up.

    Phew! That's good because there are more Matrix mods! Window tinting, updated radio, and LED lighting! Maybe even seat covers!

    No way it will be street legal after all that

    Street legal is such a hazy concept!

    Me either!

    This would make a drop and Nascar style air skirts necessary as well. And a fancy color shifting paint or wrap. And most important, lots of unnecessary under body lighting.

    Way ahead of you. Already ordered. With or without the turbo.
