I had to use a blow dryer to melt the bottom edge of the driver side window before I was able to open it. Took about 20 minutes. Don't ask how long it took to clear the ice off the rest of the car :P

The ice was about 1cm thick all around.

Man, I feel your pain. Mine looked exactly like that. Took forever to get in to get it to heat up and melt the ice on the windows a bit!

I think the option was to vent to atmosphere rather than recirculate.

Picked up my mudflaps from the Toyota dealer today. If only the weather would cooperate enough for me to install them.

Got my clear side markers and rally armor mudflaps installed yesterday, next is to get some snow tires. Those side markers really give a nice clean look to the car.

Bought some WRB to paint repaint my decklid (after I remove limited holes) and paint my new spoiler! Not bad went Dupont Chomabase and it was only $109/QT. Though I'm a bit disappointed to find out that World Rally Blue is just renamed WRX blue...

Several weeks ago -- headers and Ecutek tune. Shout-out to Mike at Moto-East for a bang-up job.

No more torque dip at 3k-4k is very nice.
