    why because the battery light is on ? Yea It only does that with LEDs but the battery might need to be replaced. You have input on the mod or only see negative stuff there bud :)

    I wouldn't call it negative. Putting something in to "look" nice and cause other issue is definitely unique. :rofl:

    No Chinese ebay stuff.
    But they are actually not that bad. I reused the OEM springs because they were better. But over all came out ok.

    yeap thats it. You got it. Its because the LEDs have side LEDs and one points right at it actually. But I also need to change battery for sure. Even if I dont. I want Optima Yellow Top

    Yo dudes. New here.

    Anyway, big Beksinski/ Giger fan so I did a little epoxy putty sculpt as a test run before blacking out my interior.

    It's holding far better than I thought to the vinyl so we'll probably be adding bits of similar texturing around the dash.

    Probably only be helpful to other weirdos but if you sculpt something and run lighting behind it, it could make for some cheap but heavily detailed interior mods.

    OME 881 springs with 3/8 spacer. SCS SR8 16x8 Gunmetal 285/75/16 Yokohama G003 Nitros all 4 corners. Dakar rear leafs. Deckplate mod. Marlin Crawler 1200lb clutch. Redline hood struts. ECGS clam shell bearing. Philips LED headlights. Front Runner bed bars. Katskinz leather interior.
    I've got the double cup holder. Never slammed the seat forward, but I did an experiment to answer your question.
    My seat does brush up against the cup holder but not enough to move the mount at all.
    I did only install with the 3M tape as I didn't want screw holes in my factory trim pieces.
    Hope that helps a little.

    Cheers!

    I have custom seat mounts in my car and my seat is mounted further back for the passenger so they get more leg room. Never hits it

    I’m sort of new here and this mod might be common, but I installed the single cup holder found on the full bench seat models in my ‘98 Taco 4x4 with 60/40 seats and auto trans. Works great. So have a total of 3 now but use this one the most.62FBF9F0-FA72-4B4B-83CD-F1F128FE6DE3.jpg

    Those wheels are long gone, sold them around 2007-2008 I think, on my 3rd set of wheels now.

    Those were ProComp 1059s and I had the old BFG KM1 32" on them.

    My current wheels.

    Moved my Alpine rear camera from the license plate up to the tailgate latch using a manual Pop n Lock assy. Removed the lock to run wires through. Plan to add an auto lock later. Had enough room to run the camera wire without drilling any holes. All worked out well with the connection back to the Alpine ILX-650.
