$20 for 4 Audi Q7 wheel caps, that only needed slight modification to fit! They were brand new, and I think they were even OEM pieces You can't really tell from the pic, but there is a chrome ring on the outside of the wheel cap.

And figured out you can turn the radio on without the key in. Is that normal?

That's the thing about ECS. They have a lot of good **** and pretty good prices on most of it, but if you don't buy a bunch of stuff at a time they rape your bum on the shipping charges.

AudiUSAParts.com

They have cheaper prices and shipping isn't as expensive as ECS.

I love this. The look of amazement and shock on peoples' faces when they see you using the radio without the key engaged is priceless.


Washed, removed tree sap, and waxed a little bit today.

Checked the gap and condition of my spark plugs. Looked alright but decided to pick up a new set and a quart of oil anyways.

Also inquired about a job at my local VW/Audi shop.

I am loving this radio thing!

Carbon wrapped my grill trim today. Not sure how I feel about it yet.
