      Luke's recommendation. Amber mathces perfectly, looks great. Color choices are cool, and cheap.

      Its either that or this kenwood: http://www.google.com/search?q=KDC-X...-8&sa=N&tab=fw

      Pioneer does everything that does, but just has 2 rca pairs, not 3. And they are lower voltage, but who cares. Color makes up for it!

      COLOR!!!

              Yesterday night gave my car an amateur detail! Took me 3.5 hours!

              First a bath with Meguiar's Deep Crystal Car Wash.. the $3.50 pink stuff from walmart.

              Next a clay bar job with Meguiar's clay from walmart. It worked good, but I warn, it is a very hard clay. I used griots on another car at John Parker's shop, and it was MUCH softer.

              And last I used some of my neighbors Meguiar's cleaner wax. I applied with my hand, and it worked good.

                    I didnt even own the wax... it was my neighbors.

                    Either way, I may buy some really detailing products here soon.

                    Pics tonight, in the sunset... :)

                      Well my car has a water leak on the passenger footwell... it likely has had it the entire time Ive owned the car... just a cheesy mat was covering it until I cleaned the interior last weekend :headbang:

                      So gotta work on that.

                      And a pic from my last excursion to Parker's

                            Well tried to fix my seat today. Took apart the other one completely (junk yard seat). Well didnt remove base cushion form the track but yeah.

                            Figured out mine has a SNAPPED OFF recline lever... and the whole mechanism needs to be changed to the dirty JY one. But I sprayed it off with some air and it looks almost better. Gasoline and a paint brush tomorrow will make it better than my seat's.

                            Then I believe my seat will be fixed!
