What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Finished my Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe power inverter install! :rockon: It is on the light duty side of inverters but I don't plan on using it for anything over 100W anyway. If I do end up needing more power it wouldn't be hard to replace with a larger unit since I am all ready wired up with a relay.

If you want to duplicate this install the following links will be helpful. PM me and maybe I can fill in the blanks for you!

I've been at work all day, I've driven about 5 GTI's. This one is a DSG which isn't as fun as a manual, but I guess it's great for being stuck in traffic. More pictures tomorrow! It's pretty fast and pretty fun.
 
Decided to keep it. Also put on some new 315/75 16 Duratracs to replace my old MTR's and new center caps to replace my rusty ones.

Gave my truck a little TLC since my wife's Focus had been getting too much attention as of late. Still needs a few things to tidy it up but for now it's all good.

I will be posting pics later today when I put it on, I wanted to let the clear coat dry a little longer as well as the adhesive for the 4Runner emblem.
