Swapped out the Nakamichi Head on my 00’ LX with a Kenwood DNX577S Head Unit and spliced the 22 pin connector.
Replaced one of the lighter ports with a USBs for CarPlay/Android Auto. Swapping out the stock amp and speakers soon.

Relatively new to the group but LC activities this weekend and last:
1. Installed projectors and HID lights. Got the wiring all figured out this morning due to a lack of directions, can't wait to drive it tonight
2. Installed 2nd battery tray and battery. Ordered RedArc battery isolator kit will install when it shows up.
3. Installed Old Man Emu 865x rear springs
4. Installed Slee rock sliders but until I creased the running boards.
5. Ordered LED kit from FullyLitLED

Whew, ready for the week to start "work".

Also, over the past two weekends, I went through the 68 ohm conversion and added a Alpine head unit and replaced the factory amp with a 5 channel amp. Added a 12 inch sub and box for some bump. Added some new charging ports for the front and back with the 3D print from Ben. Now I just have to figure head unit mounting.

Can you provide a link for those charging ports?

Had a Magnaflow muffler put on to replace the original after 390k. Sounds nearly identical to stock and must be lighter. Also had a heat shield for one of the cats under the driver taken off- it was rattling like a MF. Much better now, back to normal besides the manifold tick at startup. The shop I took it to said they wouldn't even do the manifold job.
 
Any modifications to the hole size to make those fit up front? I'm about to pull the trigger on a few and just curious.
Usually not required. I've replaced my cigarette lighter with USB ports on my LX and several other cars. Never had to expand the hole. The USB port may need a little coercion to get into that socket, but that also makes for a good snug fit. One point to remember is that the USB port will usually stick slightly outside (~.1" - 0.15") to compensate for the lip.
 
Not even a 1 banana job, but i noticed that my high beams were not working, took out the aftermarket headlight assembly to diagnose and found that the PO did not push the connector down all the way to make contact when the high beams are activated. PO did this on both sides. Now I have to buy some more whiteish H1 bulbs to match the LED low beams to some extent.

Thanks! There are so many choices of these on Amazon and other places, I assume one might fit great and another might need a little coercion and another might need the hole widened slightly. Trying to find one with Dual Type-C ports and no LED's or at least something not too bright. Maybe this one or one like it.

I had to open up the cigarette lighter hole about 1-2 mm. I just used a utility knife.
