Yes a drop would be nice, dont want it to look like a subaru The problem is denver's snow has not been to easy on us. I would either have to buy the adjustable ones or buy a winter car or just move to CA, Surfs Up!

I actually had car toys install the ipod. Cost me $300 and took all day, the installer (may have been an idiot) said it took 4 hours to hard wire into amp.

Here is a pic of how it looks, you no longer have 2 cup holders but who cares on for me



I just noticed this today. I washed and cleaned the outside nothing happened. I took the top light out and taped a small piece of cloth to a hanger and scrubbed the inside as well, nothing. WTF!!! Is is inside of the plastic? How do I get rid of this?

I've seen a car with those same wheels with a drop and it looks awesome.

I wonder which wires your installer tapped into...I'm really interested.

Dam, I like the car but how in the heck can you get bird poop inside your light. Are you sure its inside? if you pass your fingers softly over that area does it feel smooth like the rest of the lens? I just find it hard to understand how that can get inside.

it's probably on the outside. I know he said he tried plastx, but maybe it needs to be scrubbed harder. that stuff takes a lot of elbow grease to really work well.

Im telling you guys this is the most F upd thing I have ever seen. It's completely smooth on the outside and i spent 3 hours today trying to clean it. I don't understand, i have never seen this. Is there two pieces of plastic molded together. I'm stumped and pissed. It looks like ****. The only thing I can think of is I had a guy come out about 3 months ago to professionaly sand and clean all the lights but this just showed up this week. WTF
