New parts

Here is an update as to what new bits I have fitted to my car lately.

Since I'll be moving soon to a place without a proper garage space (it's covered, but mechanical parking - will provide photo later) I decided to add the bits I thought would be useful.

1) iPod connectivity:


2) back up camera:

Amazingly useful, especially here in Japan where the streets are really narrow.

While installing these items, here is what the interior of my car looked like. Luckily, as both of these items were Pioneer units, the installation was all plug and play.






3) While I had the panel apart, I installed LEDs in lieu of light bulbs in the A/C unit display.

4) Carbon bumper protector - to protect from flames and exhaust particles spewing out of the muffler. Found on Yahoo Auctions, sticks on with double stick tape. I will need to remove and cut it so it fits better (and not wedge under the rear bumper flares).

5) I also installed this carbon piece in the spoiler.
