Well it's Winter and it's not getting warmer anytime soon. Any suggestions for mods to keep myself busy over the winter? I prefer suggestions on small things like lighting mods/LEDs, and stuff like that.

What have you guys done with LEDs/lighting in the interior. Just curious for ideas. Been browsing through the old pages but way too much to go through. haha.

What's everyone elses plans over Winter?

What I've done so far:

1. Oil change before it got too cold.
2. Winter tires.
3. RainX Wipers - These are seriously the best wipers I have ever used.

You should throw some deicer windshield fluid in too go along with those new blades. ha

The only place I'd like to have some leds would be in the cup holders and the little storage thing under the radio.
You could also try "baking" your lights and painting them along with your engine cover...would help if you had a garage.

Headlights are done with projectors. I have a garage. No engine cover, doesn't fit with the turbo and I dont feel like hacking it up lol.

I think the cup holder would be the best..I saw it in a Scion Tc and it was a nice little touch (factory option I believe)
Some Audi style lights on the outside are sexy too.
