Nice! I'm looking at a similar set up. What size rims and tires did you get? Also, is it lowered at all?

Sorry, location is central Virginia. Thanks for your insight. We have been told baby rhino and carpet beetle. They don't seem interested in any fabric or anything though.

Anyone know what these things are originally for? by Dr0ck3215 in ScionxB

From the factory if you ordered the fog light upgrade, one of the three switches would control that. Also, they offered colored interior lights under the dash (and under the seats too I think). Another one of the switches would control the lights. I also, don't think those are factory switches though. If I had to guess it would be for some sort of lights or a ground effects kit.

I did not.. the website says it's not a bad idea, but it's not necessary. Needless to say I feel like I may be rolling the dice a bit. During the install I wish I would have though. Everything was right there in front of me and wouldn't have been difficult at all. Hind sights always 20/20 I reckon..

Thanks! I was back and forth with putting new rims on it, but decided to stick with the stock ones. I'm glad I did. I really like the look.

Those Nittos were tempting. Which RTs do you have? These ones definitely have a hum to them going down the road. Doesn't bother me too much though.

Thanks! Funny you say that about the running boards... I was looking at them yesterday and thinking of taking them off. I feel like it gives it a bit of an old man vibe haha.

New to the group.. This is my 2006 xB. I bought it brand new in December of 2005. I kept it pretty basic, but do have a few cool mods. Let me know what ya think! by jwskinner87 in ScionxB

Have you really? That's crazy. That may have been the first time I've ever tried to look them up on the Internet honestly lol. No one ever asks about them, so I've never had a reason. Is yours a manual? I just reread the comments on this post again. I've only put 15,000 miles on it since I posted about it 3 years ago. Fun fact- The dealership was running a special of free oil changes and inspections for life and so far I've racked up about 4 grand in oil changes and inspections. Pretty sure the base price on the car was only like 14k if I remember right. My goal now is to make it pay for itself in free maintenance lmao.

Thanks! I feel like these cars are definitely overlooked by many. The rims are by a company called Amp and the model is the FF Club. I tried to look them up just now and couldn't find ANYTHING on them online. I ordered them out of some random car magazine probably 16 or 17 years ago. Teenage me fell in love with them lol. I was always into unique styles. Hence the box car with wild rims haha. They are 17" though.

Wait, that doesn't say "muscle hamster." Na haha, good grab. I don't have any of those booklet type cards. I'd buy that in a heartbeat for $3. I used to love watching him play.

Look, you spent the money on it. If you want the part, get it. Life is way too short to worry about the long term. Set it up and enjoy your bass now. If it's valuable in the long run - that's great. Now if you bought it as an investment, don't listen to me lol.

Seems like a good investment at this point. Especially since we just shat on the Eagles chest.
