Well, certainly seems worth the effort... If you want red inside the car, why not buy those checkered floor mats? They come in red... Good value for money as you get to see more red...

BTW, what's with the giant mouse?

Changed my spark plugs (wasn’t as bad as I thought) also installed a backup camera and new tail lights!

Probably because these are OEM. I am also a sucker for OEM parts.

Not in one day but able to do 65k maintenance new clutch,TOB, verus fork and pivot, changed trans fluid and diff to motul in the car port at our apartment complex. Then did the plugs and it was a pita doing the driver's side! Learned a lot and this forum members, diy and videos helped tremendously!

Interior footwell lighting is a pretty good bang for the buck too, I dont have them, but I know they're a factory option. It's a pretty drastic difference, somewhat affordable. Considering Tom's steering wheels are north of 500, just for a little red. I'll get interior lighting eventually, when I've done everything else I want to do

I spent less than $50 on the footwell lighting - just a kit from Amazon.

Also, the carbon fiber/leather/perforated leather steering wheel from East End Raceshop was $310 shipped.

How do you like those struts? I’m thinking about trying them once my Bilstein B6 go out.

So far, so good. You feel a bit more of those small dips & bumps. Bigger ones, you don’t feel as much. I’m hoping to test em out when local Autox starts up again.

NaturallyAspirated · 05-09-2020, 03:12 AM

Got any pics of the A129 rear camera installed? I've got the front unit installed on the windshield but haven't had a chance to route the cable to the rear and install the rear cam.
