Looks good. Are you considering a rear spoiler?

I've thought about it but I haven't seen one that I really want yet.

Have you gotten an exhaust? I have a flowmaster axleback and have gotten many compliments with it. Doesn't sound "ricey" either.

Not yet. Its next on the list for sure. I'm thinking CNT, I really like the look of the burnt tip and it seems a little nicer then the Megan.

Looks good. Do you have a link for the window visor? They offer one for the tc1 but I didn't find one for the tc2. Or does it work anyways. And was it easy to install?

Install was super easy, just stuck right on. For some reason the tC2 one isn't on the HIC site but it is on eBay.

This is the same guy I got mine from.

i just put one of these on my '11 and i couldn't be more happy. its loud but it sounds amazing. very deep very mean sounding exhaust and can redline without any rasp whatsoever.

dunno if it fits the '14 though.

Awesome thanks man I appreciate it. Still wondering how it would look with the low profile rear spoiler I have.

Does the 2014 tC have a cabin air filter?

I ask because I went in for my first oil change today and they gave me a run down of the next service, which was inspect/replace cabin air filter and an oil change for $120, but I remember reading that the tC2's didn't come with them.

Of course it does guy. Do you think you draw in anything from outside, or do you think they might filter it first? Especially dirt. You're face would be covered in dirt if there wasn't a filter. That filter is very important. Get it replaced. Catch my groove?

He's actually right. The 2011-2013 didn't come with one, nobody knows why. Scion might've given the 2014 a filter but I doubt it. Thankfully its a cheap fix.

Since when do you own a tc2?
The car didn't come with one. Unless you are talking about some internal filter in the system, then ok. But the replaceable one behind the glove box did not come with the car. You have to buy it separate. My car did not and everybody I know with a tc2 did not, either.
Believe it or not, you're not right 100% of the time criminal...

Hang on hang on. I'm thinking this guy is saying there's no spot for it and that part has been eliminated. You're saying there is a spot for it, but Scion didn't slide the puppy in there? Because there is a spot for it. So my apologies, that's what I was saying, that it "can" have one I guess.

Haha. Yeah for sure. We eventually got it though.

That's what the service guy was probably letting this guy know, "hey, you're gonna want one of these." And $120 for oil change and filter is not bad at all. I think that filter is like $40 or something, so that quote is right.

Hey Jake, thanks for putting me in my place though. Much appreciated. Haha.

Thanks guys. For the record I looked up how to get the glove box off and had a look for myself. The 2014 didn't come with one either. I may grab one my self and chuck it in before the next service.
