Kick mat to keep the little ones feet off the damn leather.

I drove it like a badass for the first time. Was first out of the traffic light and onto the highway onramp so I gunned it hard-but-not-crazy, and then took the "30 mph" turn at 40 with nary a squeak (and with a downshift to boot). For someone who learned to drive a stick just over 1,000 miles ago, I was pretty happy with myself!

Wait 'till you start treating those speed recommendations for corners as minimum speed baselines lol

I'm still working towards that, I'm only up to <baseline/recommended speed> + 20MPH right now.

You haven't really lived until you took a turn at 2x suggested speed with tc/vsc at "off".

Tom's are 50% done... fucking pissed. Took apart my interior to find that Van Subaru who I took my car in for on day 3 for condensation in the lamps broke both tail light clips (side on the car's harness) and had the TAPED together also noticed a small tear in the passenger side side carpet that covers the lights... How one fucks up a small push-to-release clip on a new car IDK... I'd complain but, I've already given everyone at that place the bird for other reasons.

Ordered 2 new clips from a different dealership. Only 1.50 each but won't get them until tuesday at best since they aren't stocked...

At least they look good.

Got my Avan-Emotion rear diffuser installed! Installed with drilling, and without lifting or pulling off the bumper. Thing is rock solid; not moving anywhere.

Looks good too!

Winjr · 09-14-2013, 05:44 PM

Installed the OEM Audio Plus 400+ Wow, what a difference! Couldn't be happier (well, yeah, I could -- maybe just a leeeetle more base, but EQ settings helped here). Still, very satisfied.

Took me a lot longer to finish, almost 5 hours. But, I'm an old fart and have that as a built-in excuse.

Finally fully installed the TOM's USDM lights and the TapTurn flasher (which by the way is awesome!). Also picked-up the OEM Subaru trunk liner...no more of my shit sliding around in the trunk wohoo! Also looks nice too.

Is it straight plug and play or is there any modification to make them work?

Straight plug & play. SO very easy to install.
