Looking at possibly purchasing one of these 2 items in my next Walmart Adventure!





1. Platinum Burner White LED Racing Lights - $20
2. Racing Pedal Pads - around $16, me thinks? Is this a FAIL?? Lol


Undecided....oh well, i'll wait and see if anyone else has any comments on the matter!

Under $4, Mini-Win!!



Custom Accessories Non-Slip Dash Mat - under $4!!
Rating: 4/5 Stars

Tip: I actually purchased 2 mats (One mat is used as instructed, sitting in dash area. Works very well, as advertised), with this idea in mind:


I, like most (assuming..) have that 1 inch or so storage shelf!? sitting right under the single-din aftermarket head unit. Here is a pic just in case:



After noticing that items slid out of the space rather easily, I got the INGENIOUS idea to fix this little issue!!

So, after cutting down one of the mats to size, it fits in there nicely, and there is no need for any type of glue or adhesive as well....

Slip Problem fixed!!

Your Welcome!

Finally got the LED Fog Lights I have been wanting. Cost was about $22



Installation was kind of a bitch, but they look OK in my opinion:

I want to mount the switch to LED Lights on the "plate"(for lack of a better term) that 4x4 vehicles have a button on, or whatever. It is just a blank space in the 2-wheel drive. While I'm at it, I also want to go ahead and put in another switch, probably to control LED lights for the interior. But I could put it in now and decide what to use it for later.



(The 3 holes were already there when I purchased the vehicle, probably someone mounting a cell phone holder, etc.)

This will more than likely be a pain in the a** to do and make it look good, mainly b/c the plate is not flat, but curved. Will uptdate later!

I bought the Scosche 4x6s for the dash the day before Christmas... I think I already blew them LOL

Only other thing I've bought for the Shaver there is one of those black fuzzy mirror covers.

Same here, I also got the Scosche 6x9s for the rear. For the $$$, they are good, and definitely better than the cardboard factory speakers, but I do regret getting them now. The quality just isn't there. Also, it is my opinion that the rear speakers are not even needed, thanks to the info I gained here!
