My 2017 Sport has the under-seat drawer on the driver's side. As far as I know, the distinguishing factors of the Sport trim were:
- No fog lights
- Black mirror caps
- Nogaro wheels (these first three items were, AFAIK, unique among US-market GTIs)
- Lighting Package
- Performance Package
- No sunroof
- Cloth interior
- Standard HVAC, manual wipers and headlights, no BSM or other active safety options

I did see that, I figured. You could buy a base durango or even a good used durango for like 25-30 and put the crate hellacat in for lets say 25, then your all in for 50, vs buying it for what im sure would be like 80Pony up, there’s a Durango Hellcat for 2021
lol, ulitimate sleeper?

H&R Sport springs installed together with 15mm front and 20mm rear spacers. Some might find this too low but to me it looks perfect. The car has DSG and the drop is very even front to back. Not much difference in ride quality unless on rough roads and RR tracks. If you live in an area with lots of pot holes then definitely get a milder drop. I can only say that I FEEL the turn-in to be sharper and flatter around a corner. But it's nothing scientific as I don't have a way to measure it.
Providing some pictures so someone else can compare the drop to other brands.

Damn a Hellcat crate engine is only 16k, drooling about putting one of those in a 68 Coronet.

I've used mine just as much as my cruise control. Made sure they worked once, haven't touched them since.

yeah they are not too bad on price. I added some buffer as I wouldn't do the install but you could really put a hellcat engine in almost anything. I know there was a miata hellcat lolDamn a Hellcat crate engine is only 16k, drooling about putting one of those in a 68 Coronet.

Bought some used Urotronic 15/20mm spacers. Makes the car alot more flush with the DG springs I installed.
It’s the cloudy moisture stuff that OEM fog lights don’t help with lol

So stupid question. I've got the fogs in the bumper and the battery tray out. I'm attempting to figure out the best path to run the wiring harness. If you bought yours premade, where did you ground it? I bought mine off carsystems.eu and the length of the ground isn't long enough to reach the earth lug behind the battery.

These grounds are right below/aft of the headlights. I think that's where the fog harnesses get grounded.
