| Rear done with the exception of the rear lights. I'll wait until some LED lights come up cheap. It's funny but I thought the original 2007 rear lights were quite good looking, but the car looks 'odd' ... |

My installation is a retrofit of signature lights into a 2007 halogen spec car.
I would like to see a picture of the 2014 lights to see if there are any differences, I am running a black grill sur ... |

| Just checked, I'm using 'Classic start menu' which it says is a clone of older versions. So I don't know if windows have brought back the start menu yet. |
