What are you getting your car(s) for christmas?
« on: December 12, 2011, 10:52:57 pm »
I ordered some goodies both on and off the internet for my car. 

nothing major, but i said to myself that i wouldn't buy anything for the car until summer but i couldn't resist.

pics to follow, but in the mean time, what automotive things are you guys getting for your car?

new scented deodorizer?  new jack/stands?  work mat? decals? or are you getting your car anything at all for christmas?

The GLK got winter wheels and tires and a garage spot.

The Z4 gets a vacation in the garage.

The TSX gets fresh oil and the chance to slug out another winter as my DD ;D

The Subaru is spending a week parked under the on-hill condo we've rented at Fernie after Christmas.

If I get all my other errands done, I may get the B&M short shifter currently sitting on my filing cabinet installed in the Elantra Touring by Christmas.  And an oil change!  Though I suspect she'd appreciate a wash as well...
