    feeler....I would be removing this lights (LED/DRL) before the month ends (I'm just waiting for the replacement lights).... and I will be selling it...

    RFS: will be going on a different direction on how the front would look...

    * please note that lights are use and are on my car for the past 5 months....

    would be selling it for $325 (this would include a set a bnew/unused H3 3000K HID kit (kit is from Japan) and would be looking for local pick-ups so that the buyer could inspect the lights before buying it....

    they are black chrome bits.... so I think I will remove my lower door mouldings (and sell them) as they don't match these bits... (I have another set of door moulding that are coming in and hopefully match these better...

    hey, bzyrice, when you installed ur tanabe coilovers, did you need to remove the rear seats ?

    Also, how is the level of comfort of the ride after u installed the coilovers ?

    stiffer ride ? softer ride ?

    what's the setting u used ?

    thanks

    No need to take out rear seats.. There is an access panel on each side.
    Ride is firmer
    My wife drives the car mostly with my son and she told me the car feels much better.. There are no firmness settings on the tanabes I have..
    Btw wierd place to ask me this since this is bino's thread lol

    that's fine.... :D

    bzyrice is correct on how to access the rear suspension... I could take a pic of it on sat since I'll be removing my Tein coilovers this weekend.... I'll try to see if I could take some pics on where the rear suspension bolts are.....

    yes I'm selling them.. but someone is already going to pick them up as soon as I take it off my car....

    I have the Tein Basic only... for the prius I think the basic is just fine because you really don't have to play around with the dampening.... I got this from Japan.... but I believed I've seen some on Ebay for $900....
