  • Some new mods completed!

    Decided to do some more stuff this past week to my 6er. Painted the engine/battery covers, installed LED bulbs in the taillights, and got a new stereo. Yes I got rid of my touch screen for something a bit cheaper...it was mostly for money reasons, but also a lot of people at work were eyeing it and I didn't want anything to happen. I never even used the DVD player in it anyway, so it was a lot of money just sitting there playing MP3s and nothing else. I now have a Pioneer DEH-P880PRS which is pretty cool, if I can figure out how to adjust the sound lol. There's a lot of freakin' adjustments you can make. But I like it because you can pick from either blue or white backlighting, and the white looks awesome! On to the pics! (and vids!)



















    and for your viewing pleasure, some vids of the taillights in action!

        Looks great! Did your dash kit come with red lighting on the buttons, or did you change those?

          they were red, but it's not as dark a red as the factory lighting. Hard to tell in the pics though.

                      the thing with the LEDs is that they don't spread around the tail assembly as well as regular bulbs, since they are directional. But these bulbs have 6 LEDs around the side of them that point to the sides so that the light will reflect better off the chrome housing. They're pretty bright if you look at them head on, but you gotta remember the bulbs are kind of at an angle...if you stand directly behind the car you can see how they face outward. I'm happy with them.

                            Nice looking stereo and I'm digging the paint job to match the grills.
