Yeah, it came with those rims, I'd love to have the 03-05 6MT rims...
I got an overhead console with HomeLink and ambient lighting, but he didn't have the harness for it.... so I don't have any way of hooking that up..

I know... exactly... I've always had a sunroof, and now... just headliner and metal...

Thought about putting in a skylight

Just bought a leather wrapped EX wheel off eBay, then used an aftermarket adapter for the audio controls and the aftermarket head unit... Stock audio controls won't work with a LX stock head unit...

You can fake a moon roof. Install a moonroof visor.

moonroofs **** anyways, pay an extra grand for less headroom, 50 more lbs of deadweight and top heavy CG...no thanks...

That's one way of looking at it. I know people who feel the same way. I owned one car without a moonroof after having one always. I will never go back. It brings too much warmth to the cabin as far as extra light and the vent is indispensable for a little air in the rain or anytime. I like that the 7th gen has an above average size moonroof as well.

Beautiful car! But leather is totally over rated in the summer time.... hahaha! Luckily for the winter, mines got heated seats.

I miss my sunroof.... just simply for the fact that I've always had one...

The thought crossed my mind...

Coming along great! What kind of red leds were you looking for? To go in like the map, dome, and courtesy lights?

Now do a V6 mod to it.

aka add a turbo! I myself prefer synthetic leather over natural leather. it doesn't crack or anything. Nice car though. I didnt notice if you did the drum to disc conversion?
