Plenty of mods, the vents going green or blue ? I would put a blower on ur engine save some money the stroker will cost you alot more than a bolt on blower,why not go a 4.2L stroker in ur wagon with some goodies or Ls1 where there is so many off the shelf parts and easier power made for your dollar?

Sweet Vn,good stuff on the mods! TUFF.

Have you got pics of the climate control and gearstick lights blue? I've done all mine blue but looking for a pic of someone thats done the gearstick lights all blue, but the R for reverse with a red LED and the up arrow on the climate control with a red LED as well.
