    LittleRedWagon5 - I'm only looking for the little repeater light that goes in the bumper. If you have that one available, let me know what it would cost to get it over to Sacramento. Nate0123 - Sorry about that. I haven't updated my profile in about a year. I got my location on there...

    WTB: P5 Front Bumper/Headlight/sidemarker

    Insurance check is in the mail. Because the damage is so minimal, I can handle the repairs on my own, then i'll send it to the paint shop. My insurance requires a $500 deductible. I'm pretty confident that i can get that money back by finding the parts and installing on my own. Any...

    Custom iPod Install

    For all you who have the Auxmod, you know how annoying it might be to have your iPod sliding around everywhere while driving. My search for an iPod mounting bracket came back dry and so i was forced to improvise. I was able to wire in the Monster Car Charger/input so that the wires were easily...

    Shaking with the clutch

    thanks so much for the help guys. i'm glad its a common problem and its not something that's damaging my car. I think i'll have to just let it go and learn to drive around it. Maybe i'll look into those long reach plugs. Anything's worth a shot. Thanks again, much appreciated, -wes

    Shaking with the clutch

    hey guys, i'm having trouble zoning in on the direct problem here. Occasionally, when i get going from a stop in 1st gear, the engine sort of shakes as i disenguage the clutch. The clutch is not slipping, but it is doing something funny. I'm realy thinking that this is an engine mount issue...

    Alignment After Lowering Springs

    Hey guys, Not too many have commented on uneven tire wear with their lowering set-up. I have been considering dropping my p5 for some time now but i don't want to sacrafice uneven tire wear.
