They're not easy, but they're not difficult. You just have to be patient, because it takes a long time. They sound good, I just wired it into my rear door speakers, so they're not super loud. I would need to invest in another amp for that. the most difficult part is getting the right size wood/plastic for the speakers to mount onto.
The chrome on the wheels never grew on me, so I picked up some Plasti-dip at Lowes and went to work. I like the finished product a lot better. Sorry about the crappy iPhone picture.
well, the chrome was a plastic insert that was held in by screws, so i took out all the inserts and painted them. it's holding up fine, and was really easy, so i guess it would work on your friend's wheels.
Yeah, and thanks. I do have a question to anyone that has a TRD CAI, one of my clips on the bottom of the filter thing fell off, know where I could get a replacement?
Love the underhood except the power connection for the amp. If you decide to compete in a sound show, you would be disqualified for fusing the power wire more than 15 inches in length from the battery. I always do a circuit breaker at less than 10 inches. other than that, just extremely jealous over the headers.
It sounds good. I didn't like the sound of the headers at first. It reminded me of the sound of a diesel volkswagon car. But I really like it now with the exhaust.
The Weapon-R S-pipe should be here in about a week, and i'm hoping that should make it sound even better. I ordered it all at the same time, but they sent me the S-pipe that went with their header and not with the stock header, so it wouldn't fit.
I don't, the roads aren't very flat here, so I'll probably keep it stock height.
Love the car and the mods you have done to it.......don't care for the snow on the xB though!!! That is one reason we left New Hampshire for sunny Florida. Less potholes too! Enjoy your sweeeet ride and keep sharing pics!
