    Horn

    I believe you can just add one and wire it in. many many years ago I wired an air horn on my Ford Fairmont. Mind you back then the cars were so advanced as they are now.

    Rotate Tires

    manual states to rotate tires from rear to front on same side. my question is can I rotate from side to side? my last ride the manual indicated to rotate the rear left to front right, front right to rear right etc. I don't think it will do anything bad but should I just follow the manual or can...

    2013 Corolla Crap Car!

    I realize that maybe you had no choice but get the corolla but what bugs me is why get a vehicle and rant and complain about it? Did you not know what the corolla was? did you not read any reviews on the vehicle? Why not get a used BMW or AUDI or a 20 year old vehicle. I test drove many cars as...

    2013-Mods LED's , Halo

    yes Ric People get away with many things but if there are no people left to do the right thing then everything will go to hell in a hand basket. There will always be those that will not respect and try to get away with anything they can but that does not make it ok for everyone to throw in the...

    Intro Me & my S

    that car look good. And I don't say that because I drive a 2013 S that is also white lol. but seriously with the windows tinted it looks bad ass. I plan on doing some appearance upgrades as well just not sure what and when. It also makes mucho sense to keep it as high mileage (or kilometerage as...

    2013 Corolla - Upgrade to 17" Wheels

    If your ok with getting 17's and are ok with a minimal gas mileage penalty then when the deal comes up on the rims get them and slap them on your ride and don't forget to post pics ;-) now the question is if jay andre is ok with 17's lol

    Corolla 2010 XRS

    I think the question is asked is to find out to what the reason is as a vehicle can be lowered several ways depending on what the final desire/outcome is looking to be accomplished. will it be a daily driver? a show car? ETC

    2013-Mods LED's , Halo

    hangfire makes some good points and I would only add as I have said before why mess with something that works fine? Clearly Toyota invested in making a headlight that works why mess with it a ruin it? each ride is personal and do what you want but you must live with the consequences

    Rims

    well, lets see here, the corvette has two different size wheels (front and back) and the rears are half as wide as the corolla so I would suspect they would not fit lol

    Air Intake Upgrade

    In all honesty a "cold air" intake will only help modestly. Unless it is combined with other mods like, headers, exhaust, and all the other things just one thing is not going to improve much. if nothing else will be done then just putting in a K&N replacement filter should do the trick.

    Auto On Headlights

    Well, when a model is being replaced sometimes the manufacturer will de-content a vehicle and/or re arrange the options in the packages. Maybe your 2010 was bought with a particular package that you were not aware of. All I know is even the 2013 S did not have auto lights unless ordered with...

    Driver Side Headlight Loose?

    Are re refering to the housing itself or the bulb? In either case the housing might be damaged. Maybe getting one from the wreckers or ebay and replacing the whole unit

    Matrix Review

    Corolla_mike the reason the Matrix is a goner is because most consumers in The U.S. Don't like hatchbacks and sales are very poor. Nothing to do with Pontiac. Here in Canada the Matrix is quite popular and is still sold into 2014. Not sure if it will be sold on the new platform in 2015 or not...

    Matrix Review

    I like the Matrix, I find a hatch to be quite practical. I did just buy (two weeks ago) a Corolla S. Reason I did was because it is a manual transmission and it was an S model. There were no Matrixes on the lot that were manual or I would have definitely have considered getting a matrix.
