Not sure if it's going to show up, but I decided to start off small with the changes to my car; and I went with what I can do easiest, which is changing the lights for the number plate at the back. ~

Flashed ECU with latest GST basemap beta v30.07. I was already running v30.06 so it wasn't that much difference.

I took out my air filter for a look. I was surprised by how dirty it was. When I first bought the car 7 months ago it was new, spotlessly clean and the filter material was white. Now ~14,000kms later it had a disturbing number of full size bugs stuck in there, and the filter was turning brown in colour. However long these OEM air filters are meant to last, I'm guessing it's not going to last that long for my application... aftermarket reusable here I come!

Unfortunately there isnt a how to with pictures but i could do a text only version. The trickiest part of doing it is desoldering old and soldering new SMDs (LEDs)
