That's only happened occassionally on my 330 in the front. I would push it slightly into the window track (not that it came loose) to realign it. They stay in there tight even without tape. Only the rears had tape.

Oh, and I forgot how much fun the Weathertechs are to install up front. Lots of scary bending. They're tough though.

They fit okay and the windows did go down a couple of times right after
initial installation but after holding the window switch and kept the up motion for about 20 seconds or so, the window will push the visor up enough that it won't interfere with the windows anymore. Weathertech product is touch and very simple to install.

Junction Produce Table installed Friday. From Japan and made to fit the RX perfectly. Loving my new cup holders



I know some do not understand this mod and balk at it but it's part of a sub culture of the Nissan/Infiniti - Toyota/Lexus imports called VIP Style. Some variations are Excecutive style. Originated in Japan. Slowly trickled to the states. Anyways it's about style, looks. Not safety

Here is an update:

Some pre-TORC show prepping. Testing out how the bottles look.

Took so long to pick a Sake bottle that I thought would work. 100% on these being best for now. Until I find a better one these are it.

PS: For use in a car show only lol, and for that purpose it was bought and those are actual Japanese cigarettes. All to authenticate the theme lol! I don't smoke or drink so they will last a long time.

Personally to me they all look uneven and poorly done. Might just be the angle. I don't like the look either. However I can imagine it was NOT an easy mod and big props for all the effort. Cool idea.

I agree, it's either the angle or they really are uneven. I didn't want to be the first to say it

And like you, not my style. I like the round design.

Lights are prototype and are being tweaked for fitment so they are not custom. LEDs are perfectly straight but my phone cam and angle makes it look off. Lenses are actually red/clear or all clear.

Lower lights are from JZS in Japan.
