Installed Rohana RC10's today
Could use a little more drop, but in all honesty, out here, ummmm that's a death sentence.
Even now with this mild drop its pretty treacherous trying to get around the city. WITH the wheels on.

I finished installing power folding mirrors today. Took a set of Aristo mirrors and swapped the power folding frame over while reusing the stock US parts to retain the memory and electrochromic functions. I replaced the factory door computers with "Taiwan-spec" ones (for the folding support) and ran two wires to each connector where I inserted the folding motor's pins. The stock body computer will tell the door ECUs to fold the mirrors when pin 7 is grounded, so I hooked that up through a factory switch and magically everything worked.

--- I like the black logo in the steering wheel bro. Great job man. Post pics of the end results if you can, please. We're all very interested in seeing the finished up, cleaned up pics.

Well, this isn't going to sound sexy but, about about a month ago I had my alternator replaced because my GS died on me while waiting at a light with a bunch of motorcycle cops swirling around writing tickets. I was issued a ticket for using my cell to call for help while my car was in traffic lmao 
Then about 3 weeks ago I had my water pump and timing belt replaced (along with a free oil change, which was cool). While test driving my car my mechanic noticed it was shifting strangely and I already knew what that meant..."The transmission needs replacing."
So today my car is at the shop having a new (used) transmission installed, getting a tune up, and having my valve covers changed.
Let's hope this is it for now...I'm tired of the little repair spell I've been dealing with for the last month and a half or so!
