damn, and I thought I was anal by attempting to wash my car once a week. taking of the wheels, that's too much work for me.

I understand why you like keeping it clean, your Solara looks "fresh"

You really put in the hours for that show man! Sweet mods. And I think you're the first to cut the speedo signal for the top. No trouble finding it? I'm assuming the '06 was the same wire colors.

So once I finish R&D the PLC install will be no problem for you. Should be all in or near that kickpanel. Speaking of which... Where did you get the 3M wire taps? I need to stock up for my testing. I'm assuming they're the skotchloks like CP-e uses.

Yep - works great too!

Got the connectors at Pep Boys - I'm sure you can get them anywhere...

Thanks everybody for your kind words. I'm really enjoying driving around day and night now!

Here's a couple more shots I took tonight with the new tails and the side LEDs:

dam Jeff the ride is coming along great. those tails set it off for sure :wink:

Love the look of the side LEDs. Plus letting the plethora of road-morons see more flashy lights (and the glow of the door beneath) when you're changing lanes has to be a good thing. (I actually use turn signals... rare these days.)

Only hitch I can wonder about is do you get any glare when you're driving or is it not that bright? Looks like there's a line of sight there. I love my autodim sideview... it would be silly to install something to blind me on a dark night. For comparison sake I'm 6'2"ish and my seat aaaaalll the way back and reclined.

by **PXLpainter** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 5:57 pm

No glare but yes, visible.

I'm an old guy, so I forget to turn my signals off sometimes - hard to ignore them now!

LOL!
