The intake sound is being channeled into the cabin. There is an opening in the passenger footwell. I plugged it with the plastic cap that was a left over when I installed my dashcam. I used the power outlet behind the glovebox and used the cap to plug the hole, a perfect fit and easily reversible.

Apologies for my ignorance :-)
So less sound goes into the cabin? Does that mean more sound outside?

No problem,
Just less sound in the cabin. There is a thread about the sound generator here. I accomplished the same by just plugging it.
I drove it a while without the plug, than tried it a couple of days with the plug installed and then took the plug out it again. I definitely prefer it with the plug in the hole (and less sound in the cabin when accelerating).

Have been researching whether to purchase wheels and tires OR a supercharger kit with the Alaska Permanent Fund that will be released to all Alaskan Residents on the first of next month.

Cosmetic or Performance...

New Sidemarker LEDs and lenses

So I went and installed these. Connected right up to the existing driver side marker light wires and ground, and then one wire up to the blinker. Load resistor is built in so they work like a charm and in perfect sync with the front blinker.





The smoked color looks great with the magnetic grey color of the car as well.

Welp.. bought a sewing machine and expected to fail.

Butttttt.. YouTube has millions of tutorials. This was my first attempt at a french seam.



This was some cheap material at Joann Fabrics. The color is off.. and I bet UV will kill it. Indoor fabric.



Here is a much nicer marine vinyl on the left. It's blacker than the interior, but looks fantastic compared to the Joann Fabric. I only had a sample.



Working on rounded multi-pieces now.. tough. You guys should try
