hey all

have got the option to chuck XR vents onto my car for cheap - so the question is, should i do it? :? i can have either EF or EL vents, but seeing as how i've got the EL XR front, the EL vents make sense!

what are peoples thoughts? again, not trying to pass it off as an XR at all, but for the price its pretty hard to turn down!

cheers :)

I'd go EF vents personally. Or EL one on passenger side and EF on drivers. And yes, put em on!
