Hiya TJ; finally had time to read your whole thread...

Whew!

Don't pay any more attention to the haters; the Box is all about fun, and mods are a huge part of that! My husband and I love what you've done with Willie. You've given us lots of great ideas!!! We're lucky to have a Webasto dealer just a few miles from here, and like I told you in my PM, we're seriously considering putting their panoramic sunroof in (after your great recommendation).

You're not still considering going the Woody route though, are you? I like Willie just the way he is. Oh well, I'm sure whatever you do, it'll look great. Keep at it!

This post has been a joke. If it had been serious, you would by now know it.
That looks like my satellite antenna.............


maybe not

Thanks for the nice props, so to speak.

No, that was a 'flash in the pan' kind of idea. I like how ole' Boxcar Willie looks now.

Webasto, via my Dealer. And, about $1500.00 is what I paid, installed. Three years covered. So far, so good. My FAB FAV MOD, so far.

Hope that helps! And blackbow, let me know if/when you get your sunroof! Love to see pics of it!

Ok, ive been to thier website. I see a small sunroof and a ragtop version for the xB. Nothing as big as the one on ***** Do you have a model number or a link to more information on it ? I REALLY love the way it looks.
Thanks!

UPDATE coming very, very soon. I have been busy doing stuff to the Box. PICS as well.

Let's just say, that my friend Joanie will think I have moved all the way to the Dark Side, as she puts it.

Yes, and I guess this means you are as well.

How did you find out my Dark Secret?



Hope to see you at the various car shows we have this month, but if you can only make one, make the one on the 17th At King Toyota!

Thanks! Yeah, well, here is how it goes...I got the ENKI'S, then when I got the KROMS, the ENKI'S went on my xA. THEN, I got the lower 'skirt' painted BSP, and it looked so odd with the chrome. SO, I got the STAUS wheels, which are black with chrome lips, and thus, put the KROM wheels on the xA (it gets the hand me downs, just like a little sibling should)

Now, you may ask, 'TJ, what about the ENKI'S?'

My dealer is selling them for me, and when I get money from them, I will lower the xA.

Thanks for the props!
