I have the Intec light for almost two years now. No issues. However, the part of the light without the 3M tape does want to sag a bit on really hot days.

My install was a bit extensive since I did remove the rear shelf and drilled out the OEM light, replaced the holes with black felt and mounted it back.

It's from Japan. Only the highest quality. The install went fine. The only thing I did wrong was lose the little covers they provide for the rear deck. I made my own from a 2.00 piece of self-adhesive felt. From the front seat it was like it was never there.

For those doing it on their own, a nail polish remover bottle cap is the perfect size for a template to cut out the felt.

I am done for now. She now looks like I wished from the showroom floor. I just broke 1,000 miles tonight and it took me almost three months to get there. And this is my DD.

I do plan on changing the radio station from time to time. Does that count?

Evasive comes through again. Now just to track down the odds & ends, and figure out which cam is what.

Finished swapping out spark plugs. Not as bad as expected. About 1 hour right side and 2 hour left. Once you figure out the stack up of socket/extensions. 1/4 in drive is the way to go. Plus using my carbclick 90 deg drive. Have not seen any feedback on the NGK R2338E-9 plugs but trying them out anyway.

Replaced the Verus splitter rod bolts. As you can see the old bolt head is slightly stripped.
