Cut your stock antenna down to 14" or 8", just grind or cut it to length, pry the ball off with pliers. Be careful because it scrapes easily, then reglue back on new length end. Presto free shorty antenna.

not that i know of, cuz i haven't been able to find it. if it's hidden, that's just a mega burn. but as far as i know, i haven't seen a button in my car that opens the trunk, and i've probably pressed every button in the car lol

do you guys have any idea why there is not a button? I dont understand why it's a big deal but, no button = thiefs non entry to your trunk. .. I disconnected the key lock on the trunk so you are unable to punch it out and turn it.

think about it, you always know where your keys are, hit the damn button on the keys...

Tail light and corner light tinting
wire loom/expandable sleeving under hood
brake caliper painting
i am not sure what else but that's my contribution.

PS.. About the tire pressure thing.. i hope you guys are kidding.. if you let 10 lbs out of each tire, you going to have more problems than that.. yuoll be running around 22 psi.. and will cuase more drag = less MPG and uneven tread wear.. if anything, up it for gas, but no higher than like 38..

Get a small self adhesive hook, from Wal-mart(or equivilent), and place it inside the gas cap door to hang the gas cap line on. This way the cap doesn't touch the car while fueling.
