    Here is what I did today.

    1. Gave her a good wash and wash. Also, used the Bug and Tar remover to get the road sludge off.

    2. Yellow Fog Light Mod.

    3. Installed a wood dash kit that I got off ebay. It is the Titanium Burl and was about 35 pieces. It went pretty well, 2 pieces did not stick well and had to be glued.

    You might be right. I was looking at it and that would be a lot of yellow.

    Looks good, not to keen on the dash kit but that's personal pref.

    Also I'd leave them clear too, but more for light output than anything.

    I really love the dash. It gives her some extra flash.

    Damn.....The dash looks pretty damn good! (Can you PM me the link of the seller? I want to see what options he has)

    I think leave the driving lights clear.

    No need to PM, here is their website. They are also on ebay. I liked this one because it was a raised design. Some of the cheaper ones are flat.

    Eventually I am going to buy some Wet Okole's that match the interior, that will really liven it up.

    You know, re-looking at that... one thing that concerns me is you no longer have access to the passenger side airbag shutoff... ...
