You know whats funny, I was going t recommend the Esky rack but I didn't want to look like a "flaw finder." That will be my next mod after a get an Audio swap going.

Haha yea that esky roof rack really would complete the car. I'm in the process
Of upgrading all of my led's to SMD led's also. I don't know if I got a bad batch or something but my 212 and 194 LEDs are burning out real fast. What are you doing in the audio swap? I LOVE my bose speakers with the avic-z110bt. My old tahoe had an awesome system (infinity components/kicker l7 sub/alpine 4 channel amp/lunar 2 channel amp) but I think Bose sounds just as good if not better. I could use a little more bass though : /

Now that you mention it, non-SMD mini bulbs always blow. I went through 2 sets or regualr 194 LEDs license plate bulbs, then I got 194 SMDs in there and they have been fine for about a year now, comapred to 1 month of before.
For the Audio swap I am going to run the MTX stealth box off of my Pioneer 4200DVD HU and amp it with a Kicker 200 watts RMS amp. Should add just the amount of bass I want.

Woe that is good to hear! 3 194's and 3 212's of the "normal" LEDs have burnt out for me within two weeks of me purchasing/installing them. Alot of flickering and individual LEDs out...So aggravating. I can't wait to get my SMD LEDs in. Just ordered the full SMD led set: fog lights, DRLs, 194 exteriors, vanitys, and 212 exteriors. Wasn't cheap so hope it's worth it.

What sub comes in the mtx stealth box? I was thinking of adding just an amp/sub to my setup. I want something small but powerful and will fit in a small sealed box in between my two captains chairs in the center aisle. I was looking at a 8" JL audio w7 with a mono block JL amp to go with it. What do you think?
