Just got my 08 LB (back in JAN, b4 hack, after backup :)

I joined YW in September '07 and learned a lot here. But I didn't post anything until I picked up my 'preference order' Yaris in January of '08. That was a few months *after* the last pre-hacking backup. Oh well. We shall rebuild.

I've posted a couple of pics in my YW garage. Here's a pic shortly after getting the LB, when we took it over to St Pete Beach here on the Gulf coast of Florida:


That first day, once I got my new baby home, I popped off the front bumper and swapped the stock horn for some dual FIAMM horns. I wanted to ensure that I had something LOUD.

My wife thought I was nuts tearing into a brand new car on the very day that I got it :) ...here's a pic from that evening:


That was 10,000 miles ago. I just changed the oil again today, in fact. I absolutely love the Yaris - even more than my wife likes her Fit

I know what you mean. I put a cheap-o FIAMM horn on mine, too. Next step in the future is to add some auxillary air horns. Keep your eyes peeled for that DIY, lol!
