Definitely have the mod bug...next will be chrome exhaust tips, the non-smokers ash tray, center console, and Angel Eyes. "Hi, my name is Michelle, and I'm addicted to modding my X."

LOL, too funny!
He's a friend of my fiance's. He lives near us and own's an autobody shop. He's been getting my Jeep all fixed up to sell. We were there last night and I mentioned the rings and he told me to "go get them."

I just don't want to mess up the cluster.

The rings look great Michelle! I have 'em too and love 'em! It's amazing how such a little thing can make such a big difference!

The rings definitely look great. I think that mod has big bang for the buck and I would love to have them. Too bad I'm too much of a panzy to mess with warranty voiding things.

I just did mine over the weekend too, you can call me "Bloody Knuckles" now. My smaller rings didn't fit that well so I had to Dremel / Force them in, hence the bloody fingers. I don't want to discourage any from this mod, it's easy to do, takes roughly 15 min total, but you may have to dremel/shave it.

Nice mod Michelle, did you happen to buy Angel Eyes yet? If so I'm close to your area if you need help installing.

*Jeremy, do the mod! There is nothing you could possibly void, its a very easy mod - even if you are not mechanically inclined (not saying you are). If you took the car in for something, 99% of the dealers wouldn't even notice them, even if they did they wouldn't void the warranty (or you could just take them out before you take the X in).
