    last thing I will leave you with is this. IF you are going to put your relays in the engine bay. Get the weatherproof relays and harness. DO not use the ones they give you. You will have to cut the harness up anyways to make it work in the config you want. Just do it the right way from the start.

    Used the radiator support to mount the horns and the temp sensor. There are already holes there. You will need some hardware to mount the horns again. But there is a slot that the temp sensor will fit into perfectly. I will say, it was a bit of a PITA haha. Its pretty stright forward, just a bit time consuming if you've never done it before.


    I used this method

    Installed Sylvania led license plate bulbs, Philips gy6.35 35 watt reverse light bulbs, and painted my badges satin black. That's fresh paint right there.

    I threw an Innovated 55w HID conversion kit in today. Unfortunately one of the lights is slightly bluer and flickers when turning on, so I'm getting a replacement ballast.

    On the bright side (pun intended) they really light up the road. Further the bulbs are shrouded on the bottom and so they can be used in stock housing with blinding others (just have to make sure to aim headlights properly).

    Anyway, I was pretty excited. I'll post pictures once I get the new ballast in!

    The same shit everyone else has.
    Picked up a slightly used (less than 1 year old) TRD cat back exhaust off of Craigslist for 200$. Super pumped over this deal.
