Okay so some of my minor mods have been done over the last four days. I think I may call this car Defcon 1.

This is what the car look like in the Day.

This is the Cubby Hole and the Shifter I changed to red.

This is a Larger view of it, notice the Dome light is Red also.

This is The License plate light, it is illegal to change this, but I thought red would be easier to let go than say a blue color.

This is what is looks like with all the dash lights on. I figured Red would match with the orange better, than a blue color, plus I will be changing the orange guage lights to red or purple any ways, it just requires a trip to Phoenix.

    Looks pretty neat. And I think it fits here just as well, if not better, than in the CA section.

    The lastest thing I've done is replace my headlights. The job was fairly easy, I did have to upgrade my wiring to support the higher wattage, but the install was easy and well worth it.

    I'll be doing a garage door opener in series with my high beam lights install this weekend, along with LEDs to light up the running boards when the doors open - and changing out the interior dome lights and rear tails to LED

    pictures self riding down highway, flashing high beams to warn of the police up ahead, just as punk teenagers are back home trying to figure out how to open the garage door...:D

    Does sound pretty neat, though.

    If I was a younger fella on the loose, I'd probably pimp my ride with some cool lights. Nice job!
