i thought it was just plug and play apparently not sucks </TD></TR></TABLE>

Heres a quick and dirty write up

Remove USDM aux lights.

Cut the connection harness from wires.

Buy H4 headlight harness

Strip existing wires and test to find which one uses the low beam. (or wire the hi beam if you want to fee like an ******* driving at night)

Use a crimp type of connector or solder the wires together and then wrap in heatshrink tubing or electrical tape.

Mount EDM Auxs to the car

Install bulbs and plug into your new H4 connectors.

Enjoy.

I dont think i missed anything but for you others who did it differently I would like to know.

Wray, unless you got a killer deal I would ask a little bit more than you paid and see if people try and talk you down. Also depends how quickly you want them to sell. Yours look mint!

i'm sure i'll get flamed for this

but kind of thought about the idea of starting a "team"

called....(get ready for this)

Team JAPANDA

LOL

only black and white cars...
or white cars with some black parts (panda style...like mine)
or black cars with white wheels (sasha?)

Ideally it would be for black and white DAs (my buddy has one)
and the decal would say JAPANDA

ownage,
for ryan who asked a long time ago if I got any parts in CF

biggest part with CF:
???

Lucky. You and your carbon fiber. If I PM you will you tell me the biggest piece of carbon fiber goodness??

As for Team JAPANDA. I don't think there is anything wrong with a team [seeing as I am a member/team leader/first lady of one], but team JAPANDA! Idk about all that.

well it only cost me $40 since i had some store credit and a semi-hookup. it retails for $100, but it comes with 2 jack stands (that are pretty shitty IMO) and a cool mini version of the jack. i'll take pics later.

someone tell me where i can get a polyurethane lip for my car besides JDMshit!

Chris, I could do that, but **** gets misplaced all the time in my garage and my car is never in the same spot.

I may have to go look at that jack soon..maybe convince my dad to buy it.

My dad bought a similar one a while ago for like ~$160 IIRC
super super light and works great (1 -1/2 ton i think...)
great/ideal for the track
for switching back and forth with slicks...
and changing and axle if you broke one

low down ramps
just found these yesterday on weksos:

takata makes them (haven't seen them available for a while)

speaking of which
how you u guys feel about those wheel stands for shows??
you know, they usually say "falken" or "toyo" on them

just some small things
haven't splurged on anything huge in CF....yet

I might tell you if you promise to keep it on the DL and don't spill the beans
only reason I haven't let the cat out of the bag myself is I don't have a pic of it mounted yet
and it would be "premature" if i just posted the part...

you know you're just jealous cause you don't have a black or white (or both) car
and cause you didn't come up with the name first cause its hella clever

your wheels qualify though
don't paint your car just to get in
CGP suits you...

Start with tint since its cheap and easy
Then you can at least cross something off
work your way up

thats a great deal/price
might be worth getting one from my own just for the garage
so i don't have to keep borrowing and lugging back and forth if I want to do something at home, i.e. fluid change, suspension drop/lift...

the mini version sounds perfect for the trunk

So I got like the worse news today. I dropped my car off for some body work before the big Northwest meet next Saturday. It was supposed to be coming back to me this weekend so I could put my parts back on but I called in today and it won't be done if at all until next Friday.

Biggest meet of the year and I might miss it

Will you'll be getting PM here in just a sec. I'm not changing the color on this sol. One day I plan on owning a different color one tho, CBP. Wouldn't wanna get too far from CGP, lol. I agree with you tho, CGP does seem to suit me. Of the two cars I've owned, they both happened to have been the same color.

As for my potential membership in Team JAPANDA. I will just have a distant supporter, cuz i'm stickin to green. Altho, if I have my way, eventually I will look like a Sea Sick Panda. I could be the InTransitPanda member, on my way from one zoo to another, lol.

So who wants to play a little game of guess what Ryan's avatar is a picture of?? LMAO

It is a dog. But what else? And the breed is wrong. It is actually a mini dachshund, but everyone tells me he looks like a beagle. This is what he looks like upright.
