nice! i love that color. i'm still not a fan of the single-DIN HU's in our cars but at least it's a pioneer. that's the model i had in my old car, or close to it. <3 pioneer!

yeah they do cost around there....lucky my friend with the s10 knows how to put them in and hydros, but can get the kit for me for around 500 apparently, then ill just need to work with him to install it. Install is the expensive part but if i do it with him it will be free install....but i also need to come across 2 12"s to finish my system.

a true HID shouldn't melt anything as they run much cooler and less wattage than stock lamps.

the beauty of HIDs is that they consume about 1/2 the power and run cooler as the stock lamps, and give 3x the light.

Welcome. I think bagging it would be a great idea. I'm sure other similar cars have had it done, so I don't see why you can't.

Welcome to the forum!

I think if you want to spend the money on the air bag system, go for it.


I wasn't involved with the deletion of your first thread. But it was returned. So I combined the two threads into this one.

Sorry for the confusion.
