hey what rates are you running on your fortune autos? Looking to pick up some coils and I’m on the fence between the lower grade fortune autos or the top spec Silvers. How do they ride?

They arent on my ride yet the only other plateholder I had on hand was some ugly Indiana VW holder. I grabbed 14k f / 10k r swift springs though. I think "edward3jr" on yt and ig has the same setup, he may be able to answer your question quicker than I can.

Put a Kenwood navi in my 93 SC. Only took 2 F'n days! I followed the CL instructions and the Metra mod to keep the metal bracket intact. Its the only thing holding the center console to the dash! Didnt use the Stock sub or sub amp or stock amp as my 10" Pioneer sub cone is half gone. Anyone have a source of a recone kit? Ill start a new thread about that. I think if I spent MORE time on it I could have used 4 existing wire to bring back the other 2 channels to the rar instead of running 2 more pairs as described.

I cleaned some bird poop off of it. It’s been so cold that I don’t remember even seeing any birds but they still got me. 😞

Ordered a positive battery terminal cover since mine snapped of a long time ago. Got a kick out of finding out the LFA uses the same part as the SC lol

I got a 95 spoiler from the junkyard. I planned to take the whole trunk but three of the four 10mm bolts holding it in wouldn’t come lose at all. I’ll have to try it again another day and borrow an impact gun from my friend.

How do you like the back up camera? I got a new Pioneer last year and was thinking about getting a back up camera for it.

crispy image and survived the carwash, all i could ask for

they took out that middle screw for the plate lights, threaded the cabling through and attached it with an adhesive so its not actually screwed in or anything but its very stable so im not too worried about it

the forgot to reconnect my ect pwr switch but that was a 2 second fix on my end so i aint even mad

I went with a version built into the license plate wrap. The bumper had to be removed for the installation (so it cannot easily be removed!) and then an Allen wrench is used to adjust the angle of view. Running the cable is a chore, though…..

I was wondering how those license plate cameras worked. Was it hard removing the bumper?

I didn’t do it myself as the audio shop did all the heavy lifting. They had no issues as I recall….

That’s good to hear! I’m debating between installing everything myself and getting it done at a shop by my house. If I do it myself, I plan to dye my brown interior pieces black while everything is out of the car.
