Default Spring update on my car - new stuff!

Did some nice improvements to my car so far this spring

First, a GT Rear Bumper


Then new rear inserts, GT take off exhaust with H-pipe made from my Y pipe(sorry bleached the pic so you can see the tips


New Headunit (iPod only, no CDs!)


New sub Box (need to hide that 1 wire still)



and finished the S197 seat install last night (lovin' it)


I have subframe connectors to install(mach 1 take offs) and an email tune to order and then I could be done for this season, unless something too good to turn down comes alone (like 10.5 chome 03 cobra wheels!)

The s197 seats look great in there, and the head unit looks awesome too. Nice mods.

I used a write up from another board as a guide but you basically take the tracks off the stock seats and bolt them to the seat bases of the S197 seats. They pretty much only line up well in one spot. Holes are 14" square apart. The passenger seat needs about an inch of spacers to get it up in the right spot. Drivers seat can get away without but I put 1/4inch on the back bolts. Wiring is straight forward, almost colour, colour.

UPD goes on tomorrow
