Installed the Steering Rack Lockdown Lock Kit and honestly wasn't expecting too much but was pleasantly surprised. I didn't get much NVH, for sure not enough to make me want to pull the parts back out from it.
No increase in noise but I think I can feel a little more of the bumps in the road and I definitely feel a difference whipping the steering wheel around. You'll know when the part is in or not which I like. It did just
what people described it would, kind of point quicker and more precise when you turn the wheel. I imagine this would be a great mod for autocrossers. I got the $25 version which from pictures looks exactly like
the $90 one(just a chunk of CNC'd aluminum). I think it's probably worth even the $90 being honest and I'm pretty frugal. Makes me curious about the TRD door stabilizers now. If they come out with a more
reasonable priced one of that, I'd try that too.

Where did you get the $25.00 version?

I removed the headliner. It was a real sqeaker getting it out without folding it...I think I gained and inch and a bit. It's not any louder. It wasn't raining today lol

The air bags are real ugly...I'm not removing them but will have to cover them with something. I'm thinking Alcantara and velcro strips.


Suggestions?
