    Today i decided to install yellow LAMIN-X on my fog lamps. The complete job took me 35-minutes and could actually be done faster but i like to take my time
    1. Remove fog lamp bezels, there are 6 plastic tabs to release and they are easy to get to by reaching down from top (use a flashlight so you can see tabs)
    2. Clean fog lenses good, i used a micro fiber towel and isopropyl alcohol
    3. Peel backing off the LAMIN-X film and hold by tabs .. i sprayed a light mist of water/Dawn dish soap on the sticky side
    4. Center the LAMIN-X on fog light lens and work from middle out with your fingers to smooth the film
    5. Use razor blade to cut the 2 tabs off the LAMIN-X
    6. Re-install your fog lamp bezels by just pushing in till you here the tabs click
    ... and you're all done, this was an easy mod and i like the looks of the yellow lenses, i plan on adding yellow fog lamp bulbs here soon ... any suggestions? Mine take the H16

    Tinted my front windows but not sure on the percent - 23% maybe? It's very close to the factory color on the rear doors and back glass. I'm happy with it.

    I also had the sunroof tinted with the 70% ceramic to help with UV and maybe help some with the heat. I didn't want it to be any darker as the light that comes through the sunroof is part of the charm to me of having a sunroof.

    I highly recommend- https://www.amazon.com/Nokya-Hi-pow...d=1466803068&sr=8-2&keywords=nokya+hyper+lime I pulled them out of my WRX when I traded it in and installed them on the Taco. Been running them for about a year and absolutely love them. Not sure how they work with the Lamin-X though.

    Nice, I just bought a set off the LaminX site because of this post. Used the 10% coupon. Thanks for the write-up.

    For all y'all who installed caliraised stealth light bars, did you have to trim anything? Trim the air dams back there?

    Question about Homelink Mirrors? I see 2 different prices? One is around 600$ and the other around 200$ what's the difference?

    Same issue here on my iPad, but can access on the computer or via the website. Thinking they no longer support the App

    Ok,

    My first piece of the puzzle arrived today, or should I say 4 pieces! Vin and every one at SCS you do precision and detailed work that may have other makers envious! Excellent packaging and top notch materials!

    Thanks for my Matt Jet Black - SCS 17" Ray 10's plus the black rivets, lugs and locking lug set! Simply Amazing!

    This is how I looked when I saw the UPS guy!
