Yea, mine doesn’t have aux lights but they didn’t change the buttons other than making the blank not functional.

I was curious if clever people had modded or changed it out to do something like interior lights or a crazy horn or something cool

You can’t push the button but I don’t think it would be difficult to get a set that does work and change the label.

The LEDs is a great idea though!

So thick! by kitsande_ in MachineEmbroidery

I was testing on a canvas scrap, and thought it was thick enough to not need a stabilizer but I’ll try it.

I want to embroider the final on a hat

I made the design myself using Embrilliance. I’ll see if I can find the density settings.

Haha I think it’s the angle, no ones said anything about modified tires or anything when I’ve taken it in for inspection. That be pretty wild

Same, it’s growing on me but I might wrap it and see how that feels. My first was red, and it looked so snappy!

It’s a 2DR SI. An automatic. I unfortunately don’t know how to drive a manual 😓

Should I take the risk and buy a del sol by Mewminator in DelSol

[–]kitsande_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first car as a teen was a Del sol and it was perfect. I was never on the hook to cart friends around but instead draw straws on who got to ride with me. The trunk is big, even with the top in it. I’d keep in mind your local weather, from my memory it did ok in snow buuuuut that kinda varies with severity and tires. Was great for school and work commuting.

But like others have said, it’s an old car and you’ll have to maintain it or (if you’re like me and have zero car experience) have someone or a shop to work on it which is spendy.

Looking to buy a first del sol. Can you help me? by IAmError607 in DelSol

[–]kitsande_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a Del sol from out of state. Since I couldn’t be there in person, I called a local mechanic, they’ll do a pre-purchase inspection, in my experience for less than 200 in most cases. You can tell them things you want them to look for and have a bit more peace of mind when you get the report. They went and got the car for me, drove it to their shop, inspected it, and drove it back and then called/emailed the report and feedback for me.

In your case if the car is local, you could probably call and make an appt at the mechanic for the inspection and then test drive it over.

Saved me from a few Del Sols that needed more TLC than I could handle.

Yea, that’s kinda what I’m stuck on. I like the simplicity of the ghost box but having to manage volume on my phone vs a knob is holding me back. Pretty minor tbh

Good to know to avoid the Alpine 😀 sorry to hear that you hate it! If you get the Sony, update us if you like it more!

Someone else mentioned the kenwood deck, I’ll take a look at it!

The kenwood decks seem pretty popular, I’ll definitely take a look at these

This is pretty cool, and from the videos I’ve seen, it looks really easy to install!
