Not for the GS but on my Soarer I thought I'd try fitting an RX330 black/wood steering wheel. It's still sitting in a box.
Ooh, also got a set of Kei Office coilovers for my previous Soarer, hated them so much I ended up going back to conventional shocks/springs.

i think everyone goes through it once in a while. i seem to do it with every vehicle i own. then i have spare parts after i sell the vehicle. still have parts i'm selling off my old jeep wrangler & my old M3.

I've learned over the years to spend the money and buy it once rather then cheap out and get crap parts that wont last.
This doesnt alway work since my last buyers remorse happened a few months ago with cree backup leds. supposed to be the brightest ever but if i researched i wouldve found out that the gs stock backup lights reflect rather then project.... waste of $50 bucks because theyre no brighter then stock. the LED tail lights for the gs has the bulb positioned a different way but requires a different bulb size.. either way i screwed myself

I would have to say buyers remorse is pretty rare for me. Most of the time if I'm looking for something I'll research the hell out of many different models before I pull the trigger on any of them. But there are also times where something in so plain view is too good to pass up. Somethings you just know will turn out bad ***
