It's cold. Really cold. So I decided it's time for the Winter shift ****.

The Titanium **** is sitting on my desk now, collecting dust and waiting for Spring.

My 2012 X sedan rolled over 100,000km today. Bought it with 68,000km in May 2015. I'm surprised I've kept a car this long. It does everything good enough that it's hard to really justify upgrading it.

Nice, they really do just keep going. I got mine with 65k km in 2015, just hit 120k yesterday.

I replaced my reverse bulbs, trunk bulb, and all of the my interior bulbs with LED's. The difference is AMAZING!

I use this one in the winter because it's made out of copolymer, so it isn't crazy cold to the touch with low temps. My summer **** is the same teardrop design, but in solid titanium with a brushed surface.

Do the license plate lights too!

I back into my garage and the combination of LED reverse and license plate lights really throws a lot of light, especially now that it's dark by 6:00

How much of a difference do they make for the backup cam? Which bulbs did you go with? I agree with the license plate lights, makes the car look better too.

You have sunlight until 6:00 pm... lucky you... It's dark here before 5:00 pm. I hate this time of the year.

Snows suck, no argument. On WOT, the car is all squirrelly and TC flashes at you. And obviously sweeping turns are slower.

On the upside, it makes Springtime a rewarding rediscovery with the car when you get proper tires back on.

I'm glad you have a positive outlook on it.

I get to enjoy proper tires year round and run the risk of working from home if it snows. I'm ok with that
