Rey we just put our coils in a month or so ago so we are familiar with the job. Definitely not something you want much help doing, there is enough room under there for one person and that's it lol.
This weekend may or may not be open but if it is maybe we can link up. Ironically doing springs is even more of a headache for obvious reasons since it all has to be pulled apart but none the less its ok. I wonder if there is any difference from the 2WD to the AWD models as far as steps? Anyone know what shops are charging for these installs. Hit me up if the other guy can't get it done for ya. |

Were you referring to my post? Wasn't sure. Thankfully Blisstik has been kind enough to offer help in putting my koni/h&r setup next weekend. I'm ecstatic and very grateful to the community on here. Amazing bunch of people always quick to offer help, advice and knowledge. I will be sure to post a review, photos and step by step for the xi sedan to try to put a nice thread together for others out there. There are good DIY's but not one from start to finish fr this exact car. Needless to say....I am stoked to be getting these installed and rid my car of the atrocious fender gap and squishy ride. Cheers! |

Thanks for the tip, law! Hope to get more involved with the local community.
After the suspension I'm looking at new wheels and possibly mtech bumper. Thinking of plasti dipping my window trim. Have had all the stuff sitting around for months but haven't gotten around to it. Sedan makes it kind of a PITA. Got a nice bit of advice from another member and might just give it a go. Can't stand the chrome. |

Man some of these mods can be a total PITA. Was putting in an interior LED kit today and couldn't change out the map lights at all. Just couldn't get a good hold on the bulb with my fingers (I'm looking for someone with smaller ones).
Don't even think I will be attempting the Lux install myself.

Don't use whoever the Elk Grove dealer recommends. I think there's a couple good ones out on sunrise near the scrap yards.

I think the sedans are the ones that end up with streaking. If yours is good, I might have to retint.

lol I actually need to know a good one too. Got a chronic CEL light on my old car (Corolla) that randomly comes on and goes off without there actually being a problem. Won't pass smog with it on. About to sell it but need to just smog it first.
