    Aftermarket car stereo head units with good screen resolution?

    Same. I have a Kenwood with the same resolution and it's fine from my driving position. I was concerned it would look bad compared to the higher resolution units (I mean, hell, my phone is like 230ppi), but it really isn't noticeably low-res in use.

    Y-pipe install

    I just did a full install with an aFe intake, Magnuson blower, URD y-pipe, and Borla Touring exhaust. (I don't half-ass things, lol) I love the power. I'm not that thrilled with the exhaust. I haven't found anyone with that exhaust combo with the blower, and for me it's not a winner. It's...

    Any tuners out there that can tune a Magnuson Setup?

    I just got my kit installed and haven't had to deal with changing the tune, so I'd suggest you check with them directly. If you have the tuning module that comes with the SC kit, I know its pretty straightforward to put a tune in. How you get the tune? Dunno.

    2nd row seat removal quick release?

    3/8" cordless impact wrench and a 14mm socket and they're out in less than 30 seconds. Small enough to just keep in the car. Don't use different/replacement hardware for all the reasons above. That said... IIRC, the seat belt anchors are on the seatbacks not the bottoms so that hardware is...

    Any tuners out there that can tune a Magnuson Setup?

    Nope. That was the case when the kits were released two years ago. But they actually have tuning parameters for most intakes and cat-back exhausts now. Pulleys, injectors, and headers... yeah, probably void. But they're up to speed on the basic upgrades. As far as who can do it? Sorry, can't...

    Finally getting around to that last little... something.

    Hah, I actually meant the forum member TheWraith, but yeah. It's a great terrible 80s movie regardless. Think I’m gonna have to watch it on Hulu now...

    Finally getting around to that last little... something.

    Thanks! I've had four years to plan my upgrades, lol. I was looking at another Trail or a Pro, but was interested in the Limited for the better climate control and leather. They offered me such a good deal I couldn't pass it up.

    Finally getting around to that last little... something.

    Yeah, I also got a URD y-pipe and had it inconel wrapped á la TheWraith. But they didn’t put it in a fancy fancy box, so I left it out of the pic, lol And you your earlier question, I’m not installing it myself. It’s not a difficult job by any means, but a 30k warranty on a boosted motor is...

    Finally getting around to that last little... something.

    Had my ‘15 TEP three years and just 38k miles. Did wheels/tires/leveling kit on day one. TRD Pro trim the next week. And that was about it for mods. Always hated the garbage HVAC. Always tolerated the gutless drivetrain. Lots of fun adventures in it regardless. Had the Nightshade two months...

    2014+ T4R Tri-LED Projector / Sequential Headlights

    XD/Morimoto could be the only company I've ever heard of that thinks a 10% initial rejection rate is perfectly reasonable. Most companies would be losing their mind getting a proper fix in place ASAFP if they had that kind of failure on their hands

    *Another* Limited key fob, lulz

    I already have a different one secured to the car in case I lose my keys on a bike ride, so taking it off the fob seemed like a reasonable thing to do. Even after just a half a day, it makes a noticeable difference in my pocket

    *Another* Limited key fob, lulz

    Yeah, I didn't really NEED a different fob. I mean, this isn't a serious project. I was just bored at work running parts on the CNC and didn't really care for those other erector set looking options so I whipped something up. Really just wanted to see how small and how few parts I could get away...

    *Another* Limited key fob, lulz

    I was bored, so I did a thing. I wanted to make it about as small as possible without losing usefulness. Goal achieved?

    2014+ T4R Tri-LED Projector / Sequential Headlights

    Right? I don't care for the sequential so I'm good with it where it is now with just the single resistor. And I'm on the same page as you guys. These lights aren't what they SHOULD be, but they're *so much* better looking than stock and they work great for 95% of the driving I'm going to do...
