Now I still have a problem: Levels 2, 3, and 4 work, but 1 still doesn't! I changed the climate control (inc. fan switch) and the blower motor. I'm wondering if maybe the resistor has something to do with it? Something is not letting the fan turn at level 1. Hmmmmmmm. More diagnosing to do.
Nick, its the resistor, happens on most, usually 1 and 2 go out.

Oh and CBE, kick *** shifter, I like it and the price is very fair. Ideally I'd like one just in between that height and the FLP. I think that would be perfect.

I know, I know, but the blower was the biggest problem. At least now I have HEAT! YES!

Yeah well I'm already winning on 16's so I hate to dare change it up. But the sw388's would be temporary / dailys / track ****** while the Volks get taken apart again.

I just don't want to spend a grand on lightweight steelies just b/c they fit my brakes

45 or bust

I must say when I had my 16" sw388 my ride was a hell of a lot smoother. Actually felt like my car was gliding when I would turn. It was even easier to maneuver but I needed the money which is why I sold them...
