I see that you are from toronto, on and in your pics is a US car.

I was wondering how were you able to import a new car? Last year when I was in the process of purchasing a new car, I went to Buffalo, NY and Washinton D.C visiting friends there and was told that if I buy a new car, I am not able to import it back to Canada, used is possible which I wasn't interested at the time.

Looking good so far! I like the orange led lights so they match the OEM look. Can't you just tuck the driver side LED bar up under the dash more? Too bad that you didn't get a 2 DIN HU for better looks & built in BT & navigation though.

Yes the LED lights came out awesome.
I am going to figure out a way to tuck in the DRIVER SIDE LED up a bit more so that its more secured and hidden.

I didn't want to get a 2 DIN deck/ receiver, i just want something simple so that i can simply hide/ remove it for the sake of security.

QUESTION:

1) I am looking around to find me some LED Headlight kits, Anyone have any good recommendations?

2) As far as smoking my tail lights, should i go film? or just Spray?

looking good. Should be able to tuck the lights back a bit further. Or you could make some brackets for them and hide them if needed.

Looks nice! But strongly recommend you replace your floormat on the driver side! Get some genuine toyota ones or weathertech! It looks like your throttle could got stuck by it!

That single din HU will draw more attention than a stock looking 2 din HU. They always think that there may be amps & speaker upgrades hiding in the car. If you keep the HU stock looking they tend to not get stolen nearly as much.

I think i can see what you mean. Makes sense, perhaps down the line i might consider a nice DVD + Navigation unit and sell my Alpine one

Those are some good speakers

I've got the Alpine Type-S speakers all around, why didn't you upgrade your front ones as well since your doing the H/U, subs, and rear?

A double would've looked alot nicer Check out the Scosche dash kit, I have it for my Xrs. It matches the metallic dash almost perfect.

Also how did you wire up your LED floor lights? To the cig lighter, dome light, battery, with or w/o switch?
