nice place to mount the bluetooth. very clean. yeah, it's amazing the price and quality of these new bluetooth 4.0 units.

Installed my Kinivo bluetooth-aux unit. Super clear sound quality! Phone calls sound a little distant, but I only bought this for music.



Ran the power to my splitter and ran the aux cable under the center console. Just a hole where it used to be.

oooh nice! always wishing the arm rests could have just a tad more padding
awesome! would love to increase the side bolters especially on the door side of my driver's seat.

did you do this yourself or have a local upolstery place do it? how much does something like this cost?
lights look great! was amazed how much it helped when i did the same for my mother in law's accord.

as much as i hate the headlight washers splashing all over a clean car, i does seem to keep the front headlight lenses clean (or perhaps volvo uses higher quality plastics than honda)
45 profile is great for pot holed streets here in LA. i’m going back to 40 for performance and looks but i’m sure will be back to 45 again.

wouldn’t do 30 unless you have perfect asphalt
