What did you do on your car today?

[CJ_lancer_772]

I took out my single stack CD unit as it had stopped working, and put in a 6 stacker that i got from a fellow Club CJ member

Ta Akram!


I've got some genuine Mitzi foggies already - going to get them installed at the first service hopefully...

Unis reckons the ECU can be set to allow them to run as DRLs, so I'm gonna get LEDs for the fog lights and leave them permanently on.


I've got a colleague in Cairns who's picked up an Evo wheel, so I'm getting his leather VRX one (with all the controls!) - mind you, I've been waiting since mid-december for him to swap his out!

I think the skirts were worth doing - even the guy who painted them liked the look - he said they were "subtle" - which is exactly what I wanted!

That's good, yeah the reason I said get aftermarket is sometimes OEM fogs go for a lot on eBay, when the aftermarket ones I have are the same, I'm just getting the harness and will program it t work as factory with the Lexia I ordered.

Unis I knowledgeable I have some things on order with him too

As to that steering wheel, I have a vrx one with all the fruit I got to sell know, Australia post messed up and was 2months with it and I found the evo one in the meantime. Install is very easy, honestly I stuffed around more running the aftermarket fogs harness to the cabin.

I'll be getting my skirts painted and fitted soon. Just too busy lately.

Yeah, I would like an Evo wheel, but I've only seen two so far, both with blown bags...

Yeah bags cost a lot so to find a complete wheel is a find, check with Unis but I think the outlander VR and VRX have the exact same steering wheel.

[Zaphod]

Same as the Evo?

[lantourismo]

Yes. Double check, but mitsubishi did take a lot of te technology and design from the ralliart lancer when making the outlander vrx. The front grille is blacked out, same steering wheel, and other choice bits

Very nice martin!

That's not the one I'm talking about

Here is what I mean Martin:

@Tomo: - thanks mate!, appreciate your feedback

I've just got the rear diffuser to go (for the dual-exhaust look) and that's about it for the exterior mods!


@Akram: - yep - that'd be the one! - wonder if the new Outlander / ASX wheel will go into the next Evo. Or some weird x-cube4 flight control system...

Finally put tint back on after my last defect - had to go clear in the rear privacy glass and 35% on the front to avoid any reason for being 'randomly pulled over' so light, but really notice the tint working in the heat

Put my Factory fog lights on:



Finishes off the front end nicely!


They don't work of course, the ECU doesn't recognise them...
