That's nice, but I decided I'd rather leave the stock to auto and not have the side markers constantly on. Plus it gives the added look of the lower LEDs on at night, which is really slick.


Edit: Flipping the knob also turns the HU to night mode, this way, I don't have to worry about that.

Paint and paint and paint! Taking every ounce to not rush and install.



A taste of spring at near 55 degrees today! After >10 for the past few weeks it is a blessing. That being said the mod bug bit early this year...

Ordered: Perrin 4" shorty antenna, a plate frame and an OEM Toyota 86 Armrest.

That STI light on the start button is cool, does it pulsate before starting?

Honestly, after DD-ing the BRZ for half a year, I've developed this uncanny habit of taking corners faster than normal when compared to other cars that are turning the same corner. I carried over this habit to the Prius, and I ended up losing traction and heard the tires skid when I turned a tight corner. Traction control warning popped up. All that body roll and vague handling slapped me on the wrist and I feel as if my habit is slowly correcting itself.

oh and did I mention the acceleration?
