Just want to pitch in, I have a Street Guardian hardwired to my 86 and it's been great. I also have one installed in my old car as well. Never skips a beat and it is quite compact and discrete. Check out their dash cams.

I've got the SG9665GC in both my cars. Never had any problems with them.

Installed the OEM BMW footwell storage net.
I used zip ties instead of the clips that came with the kit.

I used to bring my own bucket and tools.
This is the first time I use the brush because I did not bring my own tools.

Not bad actually. I rinsed the brush first and wash the car gently. It's just a quick winter wash.

But it might be the last time I use this brush.
Next time I will bring my tools with me.

I changed the Transmission and Rear Differential fluids from OEM to MOTUL 75w90... The car loves it. I was going to install my STi BREMBOs, DBA slotted rotors, DS2500 pads and Stainless Steel brake lines but I still need to switch the bleeders over and I needed a 2nd person to help with the bleeding process. Today all of my friends were busy.
