Last few things for my Lanos, then it will be finished.

Post by TheGreatAndPowerfulOz »

I have carefully thought about what my Lanos needs and what I know I can do with it on a limited budget.

No matter how much I would love to put in a turbo 2.2L and a 5 speed transmission, I know I will just not get around to it.

So, the following things will go on my car some time in the future as I can afford them:

1) New seats
2) Sunroof
3) Sport front bumper with fog lights
4) Cruise control

After that, I think the car is pretty much finished and all I have to do after that is polish it and not hit any deer. :lol:

If I can, I'd really like the sun roof to be mirror silver tinted.

Cutting the roof should not be hard.
I will use a guide and a sheet metal nibbler so I can not cut the roof the wrong way.

As for the cruise control, I will read about how to insall them before I buy one and try it. :lol:

Yeah... I wouldn't mind a cruise control in my Lanos.

Would be awsome to have a moonroof :D I would prefer one of those over a sunroof. :)

I'm thinking about getting a power sunroof from a car at the junk yard that has a similar roof curve, such as a Hyundai Tiburon, and making it fit.

**Edit**

Forget the junk yard, I found a complete Lanos sunroof assembly on Car-Parts.com for $125! :)
I'll get the head liner and the switch to open and close it from them, too.
