Dop you have the heated dots for the defroster on the top of your windshield? Or maybe the darker tint strip at the top?
Thats the only reason I dont mount mine up there too :-\

No tint strip, and no dots. The defroster for the front window is the blower from inside.

Exposed ECU wires are the new Pegs. Hope you don't have to pop your hood in the rain. Might want to install a voltmeter. tongue.gif Looks pretty cool though man.

My dealership is nice and mod friendly. I mentioned it to them before I installed it and they asked me to bring it by so they could see and hear it.

Very nice, I really like it.

Watch that 8500, mine keeps giving me a signal that it needs service. Pilot told me it'd be $79 to look at it. I ended up taking it apart, taking a can of air duster to it and it seems to have fixed it. I've had mine for 4 years now, so it has seen a loooooot of sun behind that windshield.

that "fasten seatbelts" light on the mirror is a total saab ripoff

but sweet hookup, I really like the new small volvos and I wish I could afford a V50 t5 awd...

the painted ignition cover is also damn sexy, though I'd think about painting it in a more contrasting color (and polishing the cam cover instead). that would rock the big one
