What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[DaJackson]

Doesn't look bad, but I think the white looks much better

Agreed but $30 vs $2k+ for new headlights, I’ll stick with black or go back to amber.

it's only a matter of time before used ones start popping up for sale overseas. Even our friends from Mexico can help too as they also got the clear reflector.

So only Canada and US got amber? I guess it must be a local law.

Correct

One for which, in my state, someone who's modified the amber would get ticketed.

You inspired me...

Hmmm. I think I like it! A pic of the whole back to see how it balances might be helpful, though.

I want to cover up that ugly airbag warning on the visor

Finished the install. Not too bad. Took me a long time as I took my sweet time and didn’t force anything.

A lot of screws (takes notes on where they are).

As far as the air bag removal (second step after battery disconnect)... long flat blade screwdriver. You basically are pushing a retaining wire that runs around the airbag (sides/bottom) out of a L clip.

As to the question of the heated steering... works fine after.

Pics are when I “thought” I was done.

Yep. Forgot to actually install the center retaining bolt. Lol. Pretty important detail.

Only took a few minutes now I know th trick to take the airbag back off.

Also... center bolt is a 21mm if anyone cares.

Tight to the right, is there a left center justify option?

Kia already had the GT on there crooked. You expect me to waste my time pulling a mismatched GT badge off and recenter so it looks good??

Shit. Now I’m gonna have to.

Damn you.

I thought of Alan Rickman in "Galaxy Quest" when I read that. May your quest for badge straightness be wholly successful and fill you with satisfaction!

Thanks, I like it. Seeing what comes of centering it...may end up on the tail of mine.

Would you be saying that it fixed the drone? If so has the exhaust note & volume changed significantly?

We purchased the mid-range with zero options, with 11.5k down it was $597/month including tax. It was around 46k. Insurance was $64/month with full glass coverage and new car replacement.
