My first MOD...
:D

I saw another member did something like this so I thought, after checking my oil for the first time(it was perfect at 525 miles, my currunt miles), it would be a great mod. LOL

I probably don't need two of them but I rather my baby be stay safe, than sorry.

More MOD's to come but at the pace I'll be going at I"ll probably save up and do everything at once to make a HUGE difference!

Be careful everyone, this MOD takes about 1-5 sec of brain time plus another 20-40 sec of working with your hands and the strap. Becareful after I finished it I got a migrane and my hands cramped up...

LOL

Note: Be weary of hitting your head on the trunk lid...LOL

Great idea whoever came up with it! I've been using that back-seat storage bin up to now.
