Changed my interior switches to chrome ones. Such a cool cheap mod.

Now have some old switches for sale :)

Kinda a enforced mod offered today, albeit one I wanted anyway. Drivers side headlight bulb went, so ordered myself some Osram Nightbreakers. Damn this Christmas post!

Will throw pictures up later, at work now. :( Bluetooth will be going on soon hopefully, want to wait and get it done with Highline clocks.

Also washed the car again today to make sure it's clean for Santa
