Installed a set of these mirrors: http://www.ebay.com/itm/252040470027

Not heated, but I've never needed that here.

Nice... I like the new steering wheel.

I''m thinking of switching mine out because the factory steering wheel feels super cheap to me. I think it's supposed to be a leather wheel but it's faaaaaaaar from being one lol

Got my new wheels in with my new tires. Super stoked to have them. Literally right after the installation, I drove 7 hours to Canada for vacation to test them out. Needless to say, that was a fun drive.

Late night canyon cruising with @miosaki, @Vincenttam, @N1rve, and @Tart!



Too bad didn't take pics up there... There was a giant truck that decided to park by us when there was plenty other places to park, ruining the scenery.

I installed these yesterday night (:
If you do decide to disconnect your battery, when you put it back, remember to roll up your windows. i spent an hour taking things off and putting them back because i thought i fucked up the window harnesses.



Thank you to overlanddesigns for the fantastic customer service!

the stock door handle assembly off the door, theres only 2 screws holding it in at the bottom.




you dont really need this plastic piece for the new straps, i took it off mine



the white cable is for the door lock, long for unlocked and short for locked. you can tug on it and push it in, it'll make the lock/unlock sound.
The green cable is to open the door.



the balls go in between the first and the second... sockets i guess?



These are the wire harnesses for the windows and the door locks. the clip you push down to release them are tiny as hell. i used a screwdriver to push it down.



i think this one is for the window locks. The clip was even smaller than the other one and its facing away from you.



Finished!

Finally washed the car today after weeks of busy weekends... Also took the chance to put up a couple decals on my rear window.

Nolensville rd. and Bell rd across from Walmart and Discount tire. No charge to check alignment! They said they never say "you don't need one" until me!

I'll get you the name etc. tomorrow...i'm at work.

EDIT: 5817 NOLENSVILLE PIKE 615-454-3861 Express Oil Change. (Recommended by Discount Tires across the street who have treated me well)

I got the 527's in black, but kinda want to paint them bronze, looking for the best options.

They revised the short-hub design to account for the clock spring.
