    Yeah, it would sound better with the amp and head unit replaced, but that's a project for another weekend. The sound is still 10 times better with drop in speakers.

    I've got a Pioneer AVIC-7100 in there already. Think I'll do speakers and reassess. I've looked a Polk, Infinity, and a few others.

    The DM TMM is amazing. Almost no trans noise at all. It's the only one like that of all the aftermarket options.

    I would highly recommend the Polk's. I also have them on my bike. They have been on there for years now with no issues whatsoever. That's including through rain, hail and snow.

    Not super noisy, but you will get some clutch chatter. Vibrations are actually better now that all three mounts have been swapped out. I'm very happy with the setup.

    Washed it, replaced spark plugs, did some pulls, and then pulled the bumper off to put in the grill to somewhat protect the tr1235

    untitled.png untitled3.png My new addition is Drag DR66 wheels in 18X8 +48. Nothing too extravagant. But waaaay better than the GenJuan wagon wheels.

    I like those, any chance to get a pic from behind to see how far out they poke? What tire size suspension set up?

    They are pretty much a perfect fit. I had no clue the DR66's existed, let alone in this offset. I originally ordered DR9's in just 18x7 +40. But, Drag came back and said they were discontinued in that size. I lucked out and Discount Tire gave them to me for the price of the DR9's.

    DR9's were $130 each
    DR66's are $150 each.

    So if you want to try to get the same price as me order the DR9's and set the appointment online. They will call you with options. Pick DR66's. I'll get the Pics from the rear, tomorrow morning.

    P.S. My tires are 225/40's, suspension is Corksport Strut/Shock/Springs

    I still gonna get you a full rear shot tomorrow. But, here is a angled shot to show fitment. Looks like I wont have to roll the rear fenders. we will see. I had stock 7 inchers with 15mm spacers prior and it rubbed, over severe bumps.
