Thanks everyone!
Hey everybody- just wanted to thank everyone on here for the buckets of help I've gotten on every tC-related topic imaginable. I've been religiously going thru the forums since even before I bought my tC, and you all have helped tons in giving me ideas for future mods as well as general troubleshooting. I LOVE my 07 Flint Mica tC, and love to tinker with it as often as possible. Unfortunately, I have to keep my mods relatively cheap and do the installations myself or else I suffer the wrath of the wife. She's serving in Iraq right now, so I have some time to kill and can get away all my little mods.
Mods so far:
Factory Pedestal Spoiler
Factory CF Dash Kit
Autozone Blue-Light-Special Shift **** (better than stock at least)
Sirius Starmate
Ventshade Side Window Visors
Future (Spring) Mods:
Painting wheels black
Razo Executive Series Shift ****
S2K Antennae
Interior Door Handle LED's
Dome Light LED Swap
BlueBat's Taillight overlays
VRD Fog Lights
Door Lock "Chirp"
Full 3rd Brake Light
Window Tints (maybe)
Any other suggestions/recommendations? FYI I really don't want/like the dropped look or going crazy with interior lighting. And unless I want my combat-trained wife to come home and frag me, they have to be cheap.
Anyways, just wanted to say thanks to everyone for your expertise advice!

Amazing part about the paint on my car, when I was in iraq, its my wife that pushed to get it done for me as a surprise for when I got home!!
The Dog tags deffinetely show that I am in the relationship for the long haul!!!

I lost count how many times I've gotten pulled over for having my wife's tags hanging from my rearview (illegal in IL). Once they see what they are and I explain why they're there, all I get is a "Tell her thanks- have a nice day." Not a single ticket yet. Say what you will about cops, but sometimes they can be pretty cool.

Plus my last vehicle was a full sized pickup, so even after 8 months driving the tC, it sometimes still feels weird being so low to the ground.
