close... filled two 5 gallon cans. gas for chain saw, pressure washer to foam/clean the cars and diesel to start a tree brush burn pile once in a while. (i live on acreage)

i hate doing this (filling the cans) because i know i need to be super careful not to spill any or just stink up the car in general. i did well today. i also had a doubled up tarp in the back anyway just in case.

the brighter led bulbs make a huge improvement in the cargo/hatch area in particular where the factory bulb was really dim.

in other news... just discovered my car has way more self-parking abilities than i realized. i've used the key fob to move the car forward/backwards but didn't know it could parallel park and go into parking spaces etc. by itself! will have to try this!!

got some usb plug accent lights. you can change the color (to match ambient in my case for example). they go on and off automatically with light/dark.

not sure what you're referring to, i've always liked ambient lighting, but i do think it can be over done.

I thought I remembered you complaining about ambient lighting...I could have you confused with somebody else...

santa brought a front/rear dashcam kit that's very slick as the front replaces the oem mirror surround for a totally clean install.
running wire from there to the back cam was simple and easy to hide... took about 20 minutes.
