    Coming soon. Yellow filters are not part of the testing, there would be too may permutations, something I already struggle with using this many lights. Plus lights with similar color temperature output would have similar alteration of the results using a yellow filter. In other words it would all be relative.

    Iggy is not in the mix. The thread is geared toward street use, Iggy would be an example of products people should not run for street use. I think you'll find the comparative beam patterns quite illuminating.

    No this is the only thing I painted, and it was super easy, that trim pops off like legos.

    That is one dusty shop!!! Also the floor looks highly polished and slick I would hate to work in that shop when it gets wet!

    Salt dust. No way to avoid it during Canadian winters. The floor is wet actually, all from my truck.

    I used that stuff on my Tacoma and it's been fine but the trail toys edge trim is far superior. That's what I used on my 85 and if I ever get around to it, will be doing it on the taco.

    Nothing special but annoyed the guys at Discount Tire had them rebalance my tires from the last trip earlier this month and just had them rotated and balanced not even 3k miles ago. Next stop is firestone this week for them to redo my alignment for free since I got their lifetime alignment. :D

    Old Glory FTMFW in their shop gotta love it!

    Not today, but I got some tires a couple days ago to replace the worn out ones I had.

    Quite a lot!
    I would say negative on the holster clipped to the tray due to weight and taking the weapon out of the holster, the tray can come off. I like where you are going with this, under the steering column seems like a good spot if your knees don't knock into it. I went with a gun magnet. Holds the weapon extremely well, was easy to install, and is inconspicuous. I also added amakeshift bungie netting to the side of the trans tunnel and I have found my Kydex holster works great there. My weapon is a Glock G23. Found the gun magnet on Amazon, a few to choose from, and I used hook n loop to attach it just for starters to see if I like the location before I put holes in my dash. The velcro's 3m tape is holding fast, so I'm staying with it.

    This picture was mostly of my husky floor mats but I have a holster that runs the length of the seat and sits in front of the seat adjustment bar. Holds extra mag as well. If I remember, I'll take a better picture later. But my g19 (Cookie) is always with me. You can see the butt of it poking above the seat.
