Rep Power: 286 few new toys
I got a few new toys, so i figured i'd post em..
i finally got my MOMO wheel installed, so i figured i'd post a quick pic.
also, here's the custom dash console and 7" touchscreen monitor i bought off of dannn. i'm gonna paint it silver, so all of my trim kit is coming off and i'll be painting my trim Arctic Silver. I'm gonna have dannn build me a carputer, and i'll have that up as soon as possible. I'm gonna be running Drivesoft software on it, as seen on "Pimp My Ride". Ex: the black Scion XB. So i can control my cell phone, dvd, radio, mp3, cam, gps, etc all within one program. I hope to have this all done within a month or month and a half at most. Then i'll save for my new bodykit, and wait to put that on, along with hydraulics this spring. they'll be used more to keep me from dragging then anything considering i sit about 1" from the ground now. comments are good.. rather they're good or bad.

there's no quick release. i'd rather hit a steering wheel than an airbag in a wreck anyway.. lol. and as far as diy.. basically ya just do everything the other diy says. it has better pics with the wheel/hub when you buy it. and i picked hydraulics over the bags kit the guy had because i liked the controls better.
