door sills, and footwell lighting, a nice blue color would be cool, or maybe red. Hey Red, you should wait for the X-Box, heard it was really cool. I have actually talked to some people who have worked on the development of the product at Microsoft.

Doesn't necessarily have to be for our TLs.

Whatever we have enough people to go for!

Well, Nate you should of posted this on the Legend forums. there ar alot of parts we want. HID visions making us up guage faces as of now.

Im guessing you owe gary a favor for that beautiful S-AFC install

How about you ask for some Ka7 Legend Headers? You would make this legend owner very happy, and others as well.

Thanks

TL Balla, door sills are the plastic piece that sits where the door opens... kinda hard to explain. Anyone have a pic?

Hehe... you guys should ask HID Vision about the container he wants to bring over from Japan. I'm sure he'd toss a few parts in there for ya!

sorry dude, I dislike Microsoft... some of their products are sweet (Windows 2000 and Windows XP), but... I thought they should stay in their own territory on PCs. cuz if you look at it, X Box is a PC without the OS interface. I still like Sony better for video game consoles.

Ok, this is moving. Here is what I'm asking prices on:

Honda Inspire:
Auto folding mirrors
Door rails
"Inspire" badge
Rear spoiler (no camera)
Rear spoiler (with camera)
Footwell lights

Misc:
Ka7 Legend Headers
Blaze Grill for the TL/Inspire

If someone is serious about a Value kit, let me know. Any other parts I should price? At this point I just am getting a feel for how much this is going to cost.

I am in for everything too!!! I think they have the folding mirrors of the older MB S series, where when you shut off the car the mirrors fold into the car. Also, I am going to HK later this summer. Can I get the Japanese parts there or would I have to actually go to Japan?

Anyone try to run PS2 games from Japan? I'm pretty sure they have different coding them ours. I have a chip in my PS1 to play them so maybe you need the same for PS2. Anyone???
