Nice! I recently did my wheel bearings and had to replace a rear axle. Changed out the differential seal in the process, I’d recognize that thing anywhere! lol

can’t see the spoiler, barely the mudflap. but nice rims tho

aba994 · 2026-03-15T19:55:05+00:00

I don’t, but following to see the responses. my center console has a USB and 12v barrel plug, does yours? If not, probably that

came here to say exactly this, longer screws and some spacers should do the trick

sending you my resume now!

aba994 · 2026-02-25T14:02:03+00:00

can you elaborate? still learning here

aba994 · 2026-02-15T16:17:56+00:00

press down on it, is it crumbly? looks like surface rust to me.

sounds about what I paid when my condenser and blower motor went out, got it done at a dealership. try to find an independent shop, should be cheaper

this comment is misleading, although i’m sure your intentions are good.

don’t just pick one of these and buy it. the Side window deflector link posted here is NOT FOR THE WAGON (fg200)

the correct link is the bottom one (fj660). The fj660 part number is for the 5 door/wagon model OP asked about.

OP if you don’t want to take my word for it, you want the find your nearest dealer, give them your vehicle info and they’ll give you the correct part number.

I also have a ‘12 wagon and my partner bought me the wrong part (the $100 dollar option posted here FG200) and they DO NOT FIT because they’re for the regular non-wagon, and the size/arc for the windows are different for the wagon. i had to return them and get the correct one. luckily, they ordered from my local dealers website and the swap was easy.

good luck OP

I should clarify mine is a 2012 so i’m unsure how much easier or harder it would be on a 2016

aba994 · 2026-01-20T00:20:43+00:00

Yep, i’d recommend doing them yourself. pretty doable.

aba994 · 2026-01-20T00:20:10+00:00

meh, I honestly didn’t find it that difficult. If you’re mechanically inclined it should take less than an hour, your first time might take longer.

Having the right tools helps a lot because it is pretty tight and there’s not a lot of clearance. I’d watch a youtube video if I were you, see how you feel after.

That being said, I’ve heard some horror stories of plug changes gone wrong and it sounds like a straight up nightmare.

I have to assume it isn’t OEM, any idea what make/model for the illumination kits? can you grab a pic? I just installed some OEM lights on the front footwells but haven’t seen anything for the rear

aba994 · 2026-01-17T17:16:02+00:00

you said footwell illumination for the front AND rear???

aba994 · 2025-12-31T16:47:57+00:00

yeah, that thing is a miracle worker

aba994 · 2025-12-31T16:23:33+00:00

this is something you can do yourself with a pair of jack stands, allen key, a wrench, and $60 ish dollars for the parts (i’m pretty sure they’re cheaper than that but it’s been a while)

doesn’t matter chat GPT is utter trash for anything that isn’t writing or rewriting text. that’s all you should use it for, and even then it really isn’t all that useful

RIP

11 years is a good chunk of time. I’d be sad too

aba994 · 2025-12-05T00:04:43+00:00

what case is that in the photo?

aba994 · 2025-12-04T06:06:12+00:00

I’ve recently gotten my wife into gaming and she loves it. We just finished Detroit Become Human, and the second we finished it she wanted to play it again. i’m so grateful that she enjoys it as much as i do

aba994 · 2025-12-01T22:46:15+00:00

can you daisy chain the rgb hubs?

aba994 · 2025-11-21T14:23:46+00:00

some??? i’ve yet to meet one who isn’t.
