    With the help of my nephew we changed my headlights on my 2009 , i bought them from headlights depot for around $160.00 (both drv. & pass.) model # sku dsty794 b1a12 ,they look and fit great. Very little problems for installation with the exception of that little screw behind the tire well (use of a 10mm ratchet wrench ) is your best tool. A little FYI you have 2 options to install the bulbs (1) simply twist out new bulb socket and replace with your old assembly or (2) twist out new sockets and pull out old bulb and socket from your existing wire harness and plug in the new socket set into it and place it into your new lights20230203_161512.jpg 20230203_161526.jpg 20230204_161017.jpg 20230204_161010.jpg

    Installed some prp rear seat covers in my ‘2009. I had seen one YouTube video showing that they fit but I wasn’t 100% sure and was in the market for some rear covers because I have PRP enduro elites in the front and wanted matching rears. 916759CD-A43F-45CB-84F7-704F7AB78386.jpgC681BCB7-7123-4BF4-87AD-F8CBDC39489C.jpg103DB1F3-B14D-49FC-ACBF-46B1C3EB9DE6.jpg23068198-6253-4B38-909D-DEF094510A79.jpg182D19CA-9ED2-4C01-A404-844954433BED.jpg14F0F0F2-C6D7-4989-A2A4-1FCC46F26307.jpg

    Installed an OEM style roofrack today. Not all that impressed with the fitment of it. Ended up stripping a bolt out so I'm going to need to remove it and retap the hole and get a new bolt. Also my one crossbar appears to be too long and doesn't fit when attempting to latch it to the other piece of the rack.

    Other than that, looks decent to the eye.

    Rebuild front drive shaft
    Replace passenger diff seal
    Replace rubber brake lines
    Replace engine mounts
    Rebuild drivers cv axle

    Tomorrow, fill the diff, bleed the brakes and check all the bolts

    Looks great BTW. Is that suede or leather or?

    Thanks and it’s suede and idk with the prp brand you have more options for seat styles and colors, like you wanted to you can design an all white with red stitching seat and chose the enduro because it’s reclines

    I see on their website it says 2012-2015. You confirm they fit the older model trd seats without issue? They look great!
