lol wheels arent as bad in person as they are in pics, i can tolerate them (anyway eventually i plan to upgrade wheels) so no biggie with them..

ive heard the hate toward the bumper too but personally i like it, looks good in person to me, hence why i purchased teh 2011 sport

looks great!
ive got a 2010 S, and curently going through the process of installing them all. But the weather in Toronto is still a little cold for this sort of thing, so im holding off on the reverse lights and the fogs.

here is what i wanted to know, any difficulty putting the cover on after the vanity light instal?

and secound, trying to figure out a way to safely remove the door light, i seem to be able to get underneath one of the sides in to a notch thats there but with the weather being -10 dont want to test the plastic..

1) to me it was very easy, slid a slim flathead from the right to pop it up then worked my way down the middle as the remaining fasteners popped up then to the left side.

2)not sure if i would wanna test the plastic either at -10. my gut is that it should be okay, it pops off fairly easy but then again that is at our california 60 degree weather

I have a question. How is the brightness of the Map Lights compared to the stock lights? I upgraded the maps in my previous car, but it was nowhere near as bright as the stocks.

IMO it is equally bright, just a different color. I say it's as bright cuz I have nodifficulfy reading at night with the lights on

I looked in to it, but V-leds are out of 6K LED bulbs and you need to couple them with a resistor

didnt end up waiting, did everything exept reverse and forgot the licence plate

what kills me is the glovebox light!!! I popped that f***er in and now what... does the glove box got to get unscrewed?

what did you use for the clips in the trunk when installing the reverse lights?
