What have you done to your P5 today?

[blinduno]

does anybody have some suggestions for how to go about doing this? Maybe I can go to a junk yard and take one out and experiment with it so I don't ruin the original one.

reach in the top part of the ebrake cover, pull up, that will come out. next pull out the piece under the silver gear selecter cover, start at the back side the ebrake and lifting up. this will remove all the way up to the cup holders. next look at the silver gear selector cover, there are 4 taps that you can pry up with a small flat head screw driver. done. everything just naps back in place. let know if you need more help.

Tomorrow!

If I'm feeling ok, kinda sickly...

1) Celica Clear bumper lights
2) AuxMod iPod adapter

I haven't wiped off the dash since about June, so shoot, If I'm feeling froggy I might wipe the grass off of it that flew up in the front when I took the lawnmower to work to sharpen the blades. A/C was low on coolant that day, and it was HOT, so rollin with the windows down put grass all over everything.

It'll also probably need some more oil to burn, gotta keep those valves from ticking...

Found another set of the wheels I REALLY want on craigslist. He's asking 500 for the set with one new tire. Why do I never have any money? One day this car may look sexy.

I didn't say I don't know how to take it off lol, I already took it off to clean it and buff it so it is nice and shiny. I was wondering if anybody knows a good method of painting/making it black?

I love those wheels. If I had the money, I would buy them for my P5. $500 is pretty steep, btw!

Snow was drifted over a foot in some spots tonight.... Roads were a mess so I did a little hammering to get my car out of the front of my girlfriend's and more to get it into my parking spot!(drive2)

They appear to have no damage at all from the pics, and with one new tire, I would meet up with him with 400 in cash and probably leave with them. I just need to find $400 somewhere which is impossible at least until january.

haha, no problem! I'm sure it will help another member out sometime soon if they want to clean their part up.

 

[imola.zhp]

Those are the wheels I've ALWAYS wanted on my P5...

$400 might not be so bad, if you ever need to sell them, I would think you would be able to get that back out of them.

Took it to my regular mechanic who is a friend of the family. As for failing, I just need to replace them and then they'll do a visual and slap a sticker on the window.

And wouldn't low pads be a good reason for a failure???

yea true, that is a good reason for failing, i was just surprised they actually checked the brake pads

A scam?!? On craigslist? I have never heard of such a thing.
Some deals are too good to be true.
