    How to turn stock alarm back on? 99 ES

    I have a 99 ES with the stock alarm. You can turn off the alarm by holding the LED button and turning the key, starting the car. It will beep to let you know it's off. From then on, the FOB just unlocks and locks the door. However, on occasion (when parked at a hotel) I want to be able to turn...

    Pro spotted in italian job

    Absolutely worthless post, but fun: I just spotted a 99-00 pro in The Italian Job. Here are a couple captures. It was on my DVR, and I had to take a pic with my camera. Someone with the DVD should be able to get a decent capture, if they are at all interested. This is in the end during the car...
