How do you like the sound with the new lers?


Pretty nice, deep and mellow, not too loud. :burnout:

Thanks for the pix.  I was curious as to how the flow tubes matched up to the h-pipe without being lengthened.

Love the dome light, light years ahead of the stock one. Looks better, and lights up 5 times brighter that the old one. Might change out the carpet tomorrow, and dye the headliner we'll see. :burnout:
