What YOU have
Hey I am courious as to what other people buy to put in there cars. Shift *****, boots, pedals, lights, ect... What do you have? Do you like it? Why did you buy it? And what brand is the best? I don't know who made my shift ****, but it looks great. It isn't vary durable and is giveing me problems. I have to tightin it every week or so because it comes loose. I don't shift hard. I'm pretty gentle with it. I have only had it for a few months, and it will be replaced soon. I am installing some floor lights in the front, I might do the back one day. I bought some wire a switch and LEDs form radio shack. so far so good. I'll let you know about it when it is done.

I've got the OBX sport pedals from the dealer. They're cool looking and the rubber ***** make th pedal slip free even when my shoes are wet.
I've done a complete interior lighting overhaul with my car. I've got white cathodes lighting up the footwells and blue led's all over the place. the cathodes and led's are on separate switches. I've also replaced all the dome lights to blue led's. I ordered up some small 4" cathodes that I'm going to mount under the plastic pieces in the rear hatch area. I also ordered some blue 12" tubes that I'm going to put in the footwells. I don't like the white anymore.
I also have a 300 watt power invertor mounted up under the passenger seat. I use it to power the laptop on long highway drives to school and such. I just hook the laptop up to the aux port and listen to a movie or music.
I've also got the center console, gauge bezel, shifter trim, and the door panel handles painted to the exterior color. Looks awesome!

I've also hidden the rear seat belts. The part that's on the bottom (the piece w/ the button it) i've hidden under the bottom of the seat. As for the shoulder belts, the left and right side are still there, but the center one i've hidden into the seat. I unzipped the cloth and hid it underneith. I never carry passengers back there anyways, so no big deal for me.
In the future i've got a couple more things I want to do. I'd like to get a short throw shifter with a new shift ****. A brushed stainless stell ball is what I want. Probably will be a TWM piece. I also want to replace all the black cloth on the door panels, rear seat panels, and the armrest with dark blue microsuede. That would look really cool in my opinion
I wouldn't mind getting some wet okole seat covers either. Black outsides + headrests w/ dark blue centers and dark blue piping would be drool worthy!

for the shift ****, i went with the sparco CF round ****. It's lightweight (which some don't like, but i do) and it's very durable and it looks clean. Check my profile for the pic
