Got the windshield replaced for the second time. This time with OEM glass. Much better!

Stopped by HPD in Santa Clarita. Awesomeness.

Installed my new Pioneer AVH P4200DVD and JDM Hazard button. Both look sweet and the head unit is FAR superior to the stock one. I also love how the hazard glows a faint red at night!

Will be installing new head unit after work today. Replacing the JVC KD-AVX77 and Alpine single din center channel with a Kenwood DDX896 2 din unit. Also have a Pioneer AVHP5200BT that I used for about 3 weeks and went back to the JVC because the front connecting USB was driving me nuts. Don't want to derail this thread, but if anyone is interested in the Pioneer which also includes necessary cabling to use the monitor while driving, hit me up by PM. If you do, don't lowball on it, because I would rather it just collect dust.

I'm going to need to haul some of those soon. Do they fit all the way behind the front seats or did you have to get creative?

Anybody know if these Yellow HID fog light bulbs off of eBay are:

1. Good
2. Safe

not in any particular order.

They are $20
JDM Super Golden Yellow H11 Fog Lights Foglight Bulbs: eBay Motors (item 380265444616 end time Oct-02-10 20:36:16 PDT) - which excites me, and scares me at the same time. I just installed some "headlight armor" and now my fog lights look dirty white (thinking it was going to be bright yellow).

plmk - very newbie

That is just too cool... Where did you find the lights, online I hope since I don't have the resources necessary to head out for Brazil?

TC, you no got blue lights? I do! Ladies love them, especially the ones that light up the hatch with seats down.

Did you know there is not much bounce to the Fit on Swifts in those situations?

Oh noooo!!!! I am trying to stop laughing but what I am mentally visualizing would scare me if allow myself to stop.... Get some air shocks if you want to get a little bounce back. Beware strange kind people, the little red rooster is on the prowl.

Hi Texas Coyote,

These leds are from dealextreme.com
Here are the ones I've got: DealExtreme: $17.18 Waterproof 1-Meter 30-LED 4.5W Light Strip - Blue (DC 12V)
They are a 1 meter water proof flexible strip. I did cut it at half leght and with a little soldering I could use it all as you can see at the pictures below. They where hooked at the dome light.
