It's a little more $ but I think it's worth it (true wide angle camera).

That's perfect. Thanks Tri.

Now does that plug directly into the AVIC headunit or into the small adapter thing that the other camera uses?

Backup Camera

CHILLS,

Sorry for the late late reply been very hectic. The backup cam comes with a separate rca video wire that plugs directly into your AVIC system's rca cable for backup camera. And then there is just the matter of the wires for power which is super easy.

Almost done...who am I kidding

Chrome gauge rings and clear side markers. I am so close to being totally deambered. I just wish there was something more interesting I could do other than clear headlights. Give it time, I might produce something for resale too ha ha. But for now here we are with the mods.

-Gauge rings
-Clear side markers
-Chrome Lug Bolts & Wheel Locks
-Gold crest valve caps

You could always try to fabricate something yourself. Not too many, if any, Boxster owners have done that. I've seen it done on FD RX-7's and MR2's though. If you have the money you could always do the 2002+ 996 style headlights.

Here are a couple pics to give you some inspiration. If you look closely at the headlights you'll see it looks like they took apart a clear halogen light housing, painted most of the inside black, and installed a blue projector light for the fog light. Interesting any way....

That helps

Hey Kirk thanks for the pics. Yeah, I need to figure out what to do with to make that amber go away. I been doing some design work using Illustrator but haven't come up with something worthwhile that I am excited about yet.

Be nice to come up with something that everyone could do for cheap and looks sharp. But yeah, those pictures are pretty cool. I would love to use the current amber headlights and modify it as well. Less waste in so many aspects.

Happy 4th of July everybody!

Latest mods

I got my mats a while ago but haven't had much time to post much on the forum. They are the Lloyd mats, all together I am very pleased with how the interior is turning out.

Now working on the exterior parts. I got my rear diffuser the other day and will probably have it installed in the next two weeks. Got to get it painted first. IMO, the 986 bumper really do need the rear diffusers to complete the look.

Got my piano black headlight covers coming at the end of the month, it's gonna look pretty sharp on my boxster.

I like it. Very clean and not overly done.
