what did you do to your Sonic today?

[SnotRocketRS]

How long does that tire lettering last? Is it worth it?

It's just a white paint marker. $3 at Wal-Mart will last about a month before it gets really bad, depending how your roads are. Well worth it in my opinion if you're not afraid to do a little work.

Well, went to check my oil this morning and was good but saw the coolant was a touch low and had a small puddle on the plastic splash pan below. Checked the surge tank and low n behold coolant all over the underside of it.

Cleaned it and left a white towel below it and yup tank was cracked and leaking.
Replaced without having to drain anything and good as new, the old one had 3-4 stress cracks in it that where leaking under pressure.

I took about six months to decided which company to go with. I read all I could,asked questions and watched YouTube reviews.

I thought long and hard what I really wanted to do with this car, how far I wanted to take the mods and what my end goal was going to be.

After all that I decided that Trifecta was the best choice for me. I went with the elite tune because of the ability for re-tunes after any upgrades, if I do any.

I still need to do some data logging that was asked of me by Trifecta. That should happen this weekend. This will also give me the time I want to really put the car through its paces so to speak.

So far I'm pleased with the results.

Installed some interior led lighting. I think it really adds to the car. The pin stripe light looks way nicer than I expected. In the daylight it’s a nice red stripe that adds to the dash. Super pleased.

TITS! Good to see another Texas Sonic here too!

LEDs look good! Did you use the double sided tape, or did you zip tie them in like me? Mine are blue 90% of the time to match my car color, but the red looks so much brighter!

I actually bought two separate kits on amazon. Like $45 for the two. I don’t have the links, but the floor Leds are just two giant strips that I ran through the paneling to the front seats. The dash trim lights have a super small fin that you place in between the paneling that holds it nice and snug.
I tapped into the sunroof fuse with a fuse tap in the fuse panel right below the headlight controls.
I used zip ties underneath both sides of the dash. Since both led strips were like 15ft long, I just zip tied them to whatever was available under the dash, still puts off great color.
Both kits come with a remote to change the color and turn them off as your please.

I bought these a while back so I had to do some searching for the links:

Here are the exact under dash leds I bought:

NEW 2018 LED Strip Lights Kit Waterproof – TWO 16.4ft 600 LEDs SMD 3528 RGB Light with 44 Key Remote Controller, Extra Adhesive Tape, Flexible Changing Multi-Color Lighting Strips for TV, Room https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07548DJ1R/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_P4yCBbF12JG5D

These aren’t the exact ones, but here is a set of very similar leds I used for the dash trim:

Atreus Car Interior Decorative Atmosphere Light Trim 5M Lamp Strip Cold Strobing lights（red,196inch） https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0794SRZZN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_06yCBbP8HY19Q

It was a 15ft strip, so I literally just zip tied to anything under there that wouldn’t cause any issues haha, it’s not pretty, but it’s functional. The floor AC vents are a great place to attach the led strip on both sides, just don’t put the LED strip over the vent opening.

I paid $12 for mine. Has 4 small strips that connect with double sided tape. They all connect to a control box and get power from the 12v. I just tucked the wires in. I've got 2 under the seats and 2 in the footwells

I didn’t want to run mine from a 12v, was going for a cleaner look. I wanted everything hidden. It actually wasn’t hard to wire it into the fuse box. I went with 15ft strips to get more light. When they’re turned to max brightness it’s almost blinding lol.
I mean for less than $30 they change to 15 different colors, are programmable, dimmable, can blink to audio, and have a remote. Dang good deal if you ask me lol.

Oh yeah for sure. I originally had these lights in my Sable, so I mean I had two cars lit up for $12. And the only wire you see on mine is the little but that runs from the 12v to the center console and that's it. I wanted mine to be clean too. Only thing mine don't do is the flashing to audio
