Pheonix modifications: Part 3

Fine. I admit it. I am a Craig’s List junkie. I scour it form time to when I don’t have much to do. So while looking for my next modification I ran into something. Remember I mentioned that nothing was really changing in the new Scions except minor things and from the 2008 model the grill changed? Well turns out someone got a new tC, switched out the grill with an after market one, and so they were getting rid of the OEM for cheap. So I figured why the hell not!

So here’s what Pheonix looked like before

And here is what she looks like now :)

And for those wondering, I didn’t find what I was originally looking for.

As many of you may or may not know/remember, soon after I got Pheonix I added an iPod connector to the setreo system. This was largly due to the annoyances of switching FM stations for a good reception of the FM transmitter sitting in the car (Monster iCar Play Wireless) and creating mixed CDs that I actually want to listen to all  the time.

Yesterday, while scouring the interwebs in search of other information, I ran into this site, Your Scion tC .com. And it had a few more tricks that you could do for cheap or gratis. So what’s the first thing I did?

Before I start, let me just mention that yes I still get excited when I see another Scion tC on the road. May be not as excited as I used to get, but I still do. Nowadays the tC have become common place. So much so, that I have started seeing more and more tC’s in the same color as mine.

Though I was stumped when I saw a Midnight Pearl tC at a local Target. Not really because of the color, or the fact that it is yet another tC. It was because of the content of the car it self. You be the judge.
