harooooooo pick up seciality parts for max??? no where. however some parts on the new cefiro in taiwan maight be interchangeable with our max here. so go to the dealership for some stuff and there are stores alll over the place in taiwan.. but there are a few specialty stores for cefiros.. pick up a magazine called "taiwan motor" and u'll see a bunch of ads.. i'm from Tien Mu. so on chong chen rd. there's a few shops. and on i'ts real hard for me to tell u the road names becaue i dont' know some of the english translated street names. cuz chen can be pronounced with different accents. but there's alot in shing dien.. which is not too far from taipei. but keep in mind as long as u buy domestically made products (mit) then it'll be cheaper. but if it's import, might as well get it here int eh us. unless taiwan joins the wto before u get there. have lotza fun in taiwan, eat all their grub.. i miss home. and i doubt i'll be back ne time soon again. oh yeah and u can go online in taiwan, just go to seven eleven and get one of themz internet service cards and check up on the board ever once in a while.. hahaha ihave a favor too.. if u see or hear of any cool products for our cars can you please share the wealth.. and also misc. products, like when i was at the KFC i bought happy meals so i could get pikachus for ppl.. hehhehee. happy meal toys in taiwan are hella bomb. well good luck bro and "ee lu swun fong".

don't even trip about that. u'll find hella better lights there and hella more interesting. u can get these lights that cover the screws for your rear license plate it looks nice but mad illegal, you can get the parktronic sensor, halogen reverse bulb and lotza other LED type lights.. u'll love what u find there. but if u do get the halogen reverse lights don't make the same mistake i did. make sure the back of the bulb is flat.. because i got one that is round and doesn't fit the max (want the one that is like a huge wedge bulb) they have a lotta neon lights that go on the dash similar to kev's. and also many other things that make your car look more luxurious.. i suggest u bring back your side mirrors and have the turnsignals custom made for u if u like, and u can get teh removable smoking (tint) spray, and also this cool spray that goes on your license plate that makes it turn all white if photgraphed. also u can get tinted side mirrors that are convex at the end so u have a wider angle. its' reall cool i really suggest u bring back your side mirrors with u to make sure u buy the right part. i learned that lst time.
