Added a UPR ORX, SLP Powerflo's, MM XD LCA's, Sumitomo's, and a CDC Light Bar...











Check out where my buddy and I put the light switch so when the top is up or down. ($.99 from Radioshack and a straight blade later..)

Looks real good. Nice wheels!!

I have an auto light switch for the bar. They are wicked cheap.
Wish you had posted here first, I would have told you how to install the bar without cutting those holes in the front of your trim (and then using those ugly plugs to fill em).

Thanks man! No one around here runs these wheels, actually except two guys who run the SVE replicas.

Thanks, actually in doing a search I found a post you had regarding simply bolting in the bar without drill the front holes, but my buddy I and both said it wouldn't bother us at all after installing the thing. I didn't feel like spending the money on the switch since I bought the bar used, I even bought new hardware and used a self tapping screw, not a rivet to hold the bracket in place.

Corbeau TRS's. I need to buy a new drivers seat as driving it daily has killed the foam, but it has been either in my buddies S2000 or mine for the past two years so we got our money out of it!

The TRS's are a really nice seat, but I believe the the CR1's are better if you want a lighter bucket with a high quality cloth than can hold up to a DD. My TRS has a lot of wear right on the side where I slide in and out of my car. Next go around I might be getting the CR1's or going up to Forza's. They will hold you in your seat 1000% better than the stocker leathers I had.

Haha! Thanks, if my digital camera didn't take such crappy video I sure would!

Wasn't hard just need some specific tools (certain hole saw sizes and confidence to cut into your panels!) and an afternoon of working. My buddy and I did it in about 5 hours including drink breaks and wiring up a sub in my trunk since I had the backseat out to run wires.

If I had to do it again I could probably do it in 2 hours including breaks. I had a helper do the cuts while I disassembled the panels and removed seats etc. We marked and measured everything 3 times and then cut. I bought new hardware and even wired up the switch as I bought mine used. If you need help when installing it PM me though!
