    Hey CorollaGT, I saw what you've done with your corolla and I really like it. I just bought an 01 corolla LE and want to add fog lights but the damn stick with fog light controls is pricey. So, I'm thinking about doing what you did. I really like how you have a separate switch for the fog lights. You gotta give me some instructions man. I have some questions too:
    Where did you buy the kit? Any links to shop online?
    Did you use the wire that came with the kit or did you plug the lights to the wire that's already there? (my corolla came pre-wired). Either way, how did you install the switch inside?
    Did the lights fit in right out of the box or did you have to cut/modify things?

    Thanks man. Here are the pictures I'm talking about:

    Thanks Daniel. "Moar low" would definitely be nice, so eventually I would like to go for adjustable coilovers, but also do a complete suspension upgrade at the same time (larger front and rear swaybars etc). Make it feel like it's on rails :cool:. Next plans would be to get some different wheels, engine swap and find a few more rare parts. Unfortunately it's a waiting game for the perfect set of wheels to come up, an engine with low mileage on it to appear and for rare parts to come out of the woodwork. Lady luck has been good to me in regards to my car, so fingers crossed that all of these things aren't too far away in the distant future :D

    This car is beautiful. Very functional, clean, and very JDM. Nice setting and awesome photography!

    Gold, you dummy look at all his new pics. How many of them can you see the back of the car? I can only think of one, with all the pipes. I was too distracted by the pipes to look at the window lol. Most of his pics are from the front.

    I fitted these today - Rare OEM factory option tweeter pods. I've wanted some for quite a while but they're hard to find as they were only available as an optional extra:

    I think I've seen those in the US, but I never wanted to go to the trouble of wiring tweeters inside.

    Really? Always thought they were uniquely JDM. Or do you mean for your Lexus? Wiring in the tweeters is a piece of piss. Just tap into the speaker wires lol. I've already got 6.5" 4-way speakers in the front doors though so the tweeters may be overkill in treble, but they sure do look nice :D
