may bumili na ba ng fog lamps for our 2011 commuter? planning to acquire kasi.
i prefer sa banawe or to our local auto shop, basta out of the question ang casa bcoz of the price difference.
hirap daw ipang byahe ng malakas ulan at may fog kapag headlights lang - sabi ng driver namen.

^ how much fogs kevs?

anyway, guys anong pinakabit nyong alarm? i've heard good stuff about sa Force Alarm installed by Jemson sa banawe but im kinda hesitant sa durability. Worth it ba magpalagay ng Code Alarm or Autopage? Mga how much kaya?

Thanks!

2009 super grandia owner here, what tire did you replace the stock with? any reviews? i replaced the stock fortera with bridgestone h 964, and not happy with the bridgestone. other options are goodyear wrangler hp aw or geolandar g012 a/t.

also, is there a shop that can disable the reverse sound of the super grandia? it is annoying and serves no purpose as it simultaneously beeps with the back up sensor. i want the back up sensor lang sana

Yeah, the Bridgestone HTs aren't too good per my experience with them before (they easily wear out, wet weather grip isn't as good, and we had a few bad blowouts on them... take note that we are mindful of tire pressure, suspension and alignment maintenance). We tried the Goodyear Wranglers on a Ford Escape just a couple of weeks back and so far, noise level and comfort was better then the Bridgestone HTs previously installed (still too early to give it full feedback though). The Yokohoma Geolandars are also good per my experience with them before (albeit in a/t form).
