Spent the morning working on the car. Changed the oil, replaced the oil plug with a spigot thing ([ame="http://www.amazon.com/Fumoto-F-106N-Engine-Drain-Valve/dp/B003T7XUE4"]this[/ame]) and then installed my GT86 OEM armrest today. I was anxious about drilling into my console, but I got over it. It looks great!

WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR FRS TODAY?

Plasti-dipped the little side panel pieces where the piston emblems are. Adds a little contrast to my whiteout, but I'm not sure about keeping it... I'll give it a few days and see if it grows on me...

Thoughts?

my reverse bulb fuse kept blowing. Thought it was a bad set of LEDs. Turns out it was because of the way I did the radar hardwiring.

Did you use a drill or can you instal it with a screwdriver?

Installed TRD Intake. The car was quite peppy with the Mishimoto Silicon Intake tube + K&N filter. Car has a bit more growl now and seems just slightly smoother than the previous setup. I will be putting up the Mishimoto silicon intake tube + K&N filter for sale soon.

Hi,
Fitted a new Head Unit today in place of the stockie.
It's a Pioneer FH-X755BT and went in like a hand in a glove.
Just had to get an ariel adaptor and wiring adaptor and some side "ears" and it was simple.

Also fitted a set of mudflaps. Prior to this I laid down some paint protection film to stop the mudflaps rubbing the paint.

The mudflaps were Toyota made in Canada. Does that mean they are like Canadian Bacon...You know...Thicker, Better.
I don't know but they went on a treat as well, once I had them converted for Right Hand Drive.
Just kiddin'.
