  1. Let me engage in some gratuitous self promotion and post a link to my LED upgrade photos too. :)

    See your car can look fabulous too, inside and out.

  2. thats what im using, no problems yet, no flicker, been a couple weeks. They are bright as hell too. I would recommend greatly.

    Is there a specific site you got these from? Did a little search and came across some stuff but not sure if its where you got it.

  3. I've already gone through several sets of 9-element, 44mm, 39mm festoons and 5-element 194 bulbs.

    I like the 'Super Star' LEDs because they come as either one or two incredibly bright LEDs per fixture and they have a nice metal case which acts as a heat dissipator.

    I currently have the 9 element hyper white leds in now. I had the 1 element leds in there but the effect isn't as prominant. I have 6 element led bulbs in my instrument cluster. They better last til i move to FL.

  4. Nice Nice.

    Thanks Thanks.. you wont believe the hassle i had with these.. Tis an easy mod but as usual i screw it up.. I broke my trip computer (would not light up and would not read mph/mpg/temp/ etc. found out i stripped a few connecting wires that i fixed...

  5. wheres your boost gauge? oh right. haha. Your licence plate and dome lights look just like mine. Nice job on the gauges, now just gotta do the rest of them!

    BACK OFF!!!! :angry::lol: haha... yea yea.. What's merlins sig say.. If i can't have turbo power i want to look good going slow :rolleyes: I even tried the trip computer but got pissed off and just ended up using blue sharpie on oem bulbs. Not as blue but still kinda matches. Yea about the rest of it.. I don't know if I have a year like you to spend haha

    Thanks

    P.s. Yea the license plate bulbs i used were 9-piece 194 bulbs. Incredibly bright.

    Nice job on the LEDs. Do check on your license plate LEDs from time to time. I've noticed some LED elements failing after several weeks of use. I'm assuming you are using the LED festoon bulbs on your license plate.

    Thanks.. funny that you mention the license plate bulbs.. I have one flickering from time to time :ph34r:

  6. For a great throaty sound disconnect the maf from the airbox. Connect some aluminum tubing on the end of the maf and put it next to the ign. coil. I don't even have a filter on the end, and i've had no problems. Probably not a wise thing but the maf has a honeycomb protector over it already. Plus no real harmful contaminents get up by the ign coil in my humble opinion

    Rob

    P.s. Alot of people will disagree with me, but the sound is awesome.
