The New Tucson and Sonata (leaked)

Tucson

The Sexy Utility Vehicle. It reminds me of a Nissan Murano mixed with an Hyundai i10.




It looks much better in the video than in the pics:



Sonata

Can ANYONE tell me whats this about?

Old Post, New Looks... from Lowyat Forums

Spotted this posting at an old thread in the Lowyat forums. I believe its hand-sketched by the poster, ydingo.

The front reminds me of a Proton Gen2, maybe due to the blue colour and the similar looking lights. But the bodykit is quite unique.


The back looks to futuristic for this car.


The centered exhaust reminds me of the lambo's:

Argh, poisoned again...

Thanks to cK, who brought up CCFL Projector Headlights on the Club Hyundai - Avante Club forum.

Installed on a Gen2:


Depending on whether choosing the Hi/Lo projector or Single beam projector and installation costs:

Projector Headlights + CCFL Rings + Smoked base = RM 630 - RM 930

Go to the poison website at your own peril:

The projectors and CCFL have 1 year warranty.

Black Hummer H3

This THING is HUGE! You can't imagine how big these rims are, coz there's nothing to compare it to. I was driving wife's kancil when I spotted this fella. The tyres are almost the height of the kancil.



Spotted near Jln Tun Razak.

Sightings @ TTDI

While driving back from KL, spotted this Silver X20 coming out of TTDI traffic lights, turning towards LDP (D'sara Utama). He/She was driving kinda fast, but I don't blame him/her... as the roads were clear to utilize the 2.0 engine well:

No plate: BKK xxxx (sorry for poor quality, using nokia E63 without night mode)

Self Poison 3

OMG, this is crazy. First it was the grills, then smoked headlights, and now, a Lumma-Design kit. The original pic is here.

1. Incus







2. Roadruns

Self Poison 2

Downloaded a free cool software called Paint.NET, and did some photo editing.

I can't decide on the Incus or the Roadruns. Help!

INCUS:


ROADRUNS:

Self Poison

I've self-poisoned myself (again) wanting to change the X20 grill and replace the headlights.

After hours of searching the internet for aftermarket headlights, like these Civic lights below, I've come to conclusion that there are no aftermarket headlights for the X20 at the moment:


My black car and gun-metal rims look so UGLY with the chrome grill and shiny silver headlights... :`(

I need a new grill (Incus or Roadruns) and SMOKED headlights:
1. M&S Grill, Eyelids, Smoked Headlights... *drool*


2. When it comes to the grill, I would prefer the Roadruns...


3. ...or the Incus over the M&S.


4. ANGEL eyes (taken from ManCanDo website)! Some calls it angle eyes.

Sightings Down South

Went to Tiara Beach Resort in Port Dickson over the weekend. Spotted 5 X20/Avantes throughout the journey. Managed to shoot the 3 below:

These 2 dark blue Avantes, one with RED number plate.




This is a pathetic attempt. I have another shot of this Avante in my friends phone:


Btw, the resort is a 3-star place, which looks better in the website...

Driving long distance in the X20 is super comfortable. All my friends agree...

Cabin Filter Replacement Tutorial (Aircond Filter)

The air con/cabin filters are recommended to be changed every 15,000 km. I bet most of you didn't know this, until Steven Chen brought this up in the THM forums.

Take a look at your glove compartment:




This is what happens when you don't change your cabin filters for 40,000 km. Bugs, leaves and dirt is trapped, and you and your passengers will be breathing the air.


What you will need:
* cabin filters (buy HERE!)
* (-) screwdriver
* maybe a plier
* adequate lighting (torch light if installing at night)

1. Remove everything from your glove compartment.


2. Remove Left Clip:


3. Remove Right Clip


4. Remove Glove Compartment Rubber band
(a) Here it is


(b) You can't use your finger


(c) Use a screwdriver and gently remove the rubber band


5. The Glove Compartment is out




6. These are the cabin filters:


7. Remove the cabin filter cover using 2 thumbs, applying pressure downwards to remove the clips.


Cover out:


Cabin filters exposed. Only the right filter is visible.


8. Remove the Right filter by its "handle"




Pull the right filter "handle" towards you. There maybe some resistance (eg. stuck), but be gentle and try to "wiggle" out the filter.


If its really stuck, a long nose plier helps to get the job done.


Be careful not to pull too hard or risk breaking the handle.


Its out :)


The empty slot which the right filter came out of:


9. Remove the Left filter
(a) Using the "handle", slide the left filter to the RIGHT.


(b) Make sure it goes all the way to the right:


(c) Pull it out gently...


By the "handle"...


Its out! :)


10. Replace with the new cabin filters:
- The left cabin filter has a groove on the bottom right so you can differentiate them. Make sure the "handles" are FACING YOU when inserting the new filters.


Ensure that the left filter is pushed ALL THE WAY to the left, use a long screwdriver to make sure its snug in place.


11. Replace the right filter.
- You may need to use a little force and wiggle the right filter back into the casing.
- Make sure it sits back all the way in

12. Replace the Filter Cover

13. Hook up the Glove Compartment rubber band

14. Replace the Left and Right Clips

15 Test the Glove Compartment:


16. Test the air-con and feel good about the fresh air you're breathing! :)
