Finally installed...only 20 min!!!!
So I finally got my ipod amp in from a member and decided taht I'd give it a shot dredding having to tear down the whole center console!
However, after removing the ashtray and climate control first i immediately saw my ipod integration box right there behind the climate, i unhook the jack, hooked the amp inline and fuddled for probably 10 minutes just trying to get the darn thing to fit somewhere in there, but finally got it in and im in love with my ipod again! befor it was a pain not being able to run my ipod with the windows down on the highway cuz i couldnt hear anything!
Also, since i saved so much time i decided to go ahead and throw on my sidemarkers, (again fearing having to go in behind the wheel well and all), and go figure all i had to do was pop them off with a flat head and direct replace! my front end looks way more clean!
pics to come tomorrow!

No offense, but these aren't the most exciting mods. Glad that you popped your cherry without any loss of blood or limbs. Pics would help!
What's next??

i cant figure out what size the TSW's take...i bought a set of center caps a few months ago and they were waayyyyyyy too big but that was the smallest size i could find online! but ya i agree...and ya i know i need pics, and this thread was more of a joke than serious! i'll get pics this weekend, im in the military so i cant get to my car everyday...
