its an ISR mod, Citrus. ( Intake silencer removal ) basically adds the "air induction" noise when you push the gas.

uh anyways the intake tube is from a Mazda percedia its a wee bit smaller than the original 3vze intake tube but its better than having all that troublesome junk in the already tight engine bay. Plus it feels more torquey!? >_<

rear spoiler to match body color. Distinctive look and functional as my SR5 never had one to begin with.

its a factory light. normal 2 prong plug with about 10' of wire to a light that is like 10 times brighter than the dome. hang it on the roll bar, under the hood, looking under the dash. its super useful. one of the rarer sr5 mods ive been told.

ah yes, i see how you 'deleted' the spout. i don't know what program or tool you used to cover it up, but i swear i can see a ghost-like duplication of Sam's right eye where the spout was.

Sam's looking pretty cute sitting in that pond. hah! dogs are so damn funny!

thx, Brandon. that is pretty cool. i've never heard of such a thing. i've been considering putting an additional cig. liter right about there for a hand-held flood, or maybe even cutting in one of those cop car spotlights. ANYONE HAVE ONE OF THESE ALREADY?
but it sure would be cool to have the OEM accessory. i'll have to keep an eye out for it when i'm junk yard scrounging.


ANYWAY, i guess my best cheap mod is my matching remote control holder and pencil-can cup-holder. i just took them from my desk at work because someone gave me a nicer one. (interesting story: i rec'd some lady's mail by mistake, it had a check in it. i looked her address up on the web, and actually found a phone number. i called her, and she came to get it. a week later i received a thank you note with a hand made little cup!)
