Picked up a set of ambers for the front and red for the tail lights can't wait to get them on weds


Also picked up a bulk pack of 192 LEDS for the interior for a bargain http://m.ebay.com/itm/20-PCS-Super-White-T10-Wedge-5-SMD-5050-LED-Light-bulbs-W5W-2825-158-192-168-194-/251370483066
Tackled the map lights dome lights, door lights, vanity mirror lights and puddle lights (by the mirrors) although not the brightest I've bought, I found them slightly brighter than OEM which prevents blinding myself everytime I want to check myself out in the vanity mirror DD let me know if you guys want install pics

Sorry to burst your bubble - but I had one of these 6 months ago. Per Tanabe, its only for RWD cars as my actions forced me to learn this the hard way. Imy car is AWD). This part is the exact same as the GS. As well, you will need to remove the dust covers to the AVS for install. If Tabane releases an AWD version, I'll be all about it. Please let me know how it works out for you.

My car is RWD F Sport without AVS - should have no problems, right?

You're good! I really wanted this due to having this mod on all my other cars. I love how it changes the ride oh so slightly and makes a car feel tighter. The problem lies in the undercarriage and where the " square part" bolts up. After getting under the car, its an easy install. You just need an impact wrench / gun to get the initial bolt off and you need to torque to spec. Since my F is AWD, the front was oh so slightly different. I would need the part to be different or a bracket to be formed for the part to bolt on. Please let me know how it installs and how it feels after. Good luck
