That's a great idea, I wish I'd thought of it. I'm not going back in there now to do it though. :/ I finally gave mine a long overdue bath and she was looking great on the way home from the coin wash. I was passed by a black 6 with a few decals on it so I pulled in and followed him for a bit, then passed before my exit, I think he got the idea and mini-convoyed with me before turning the other way at the exit.
Tony, the new car is looking good! Needs mods.

so what, tap the wires at the source (the fuses at the driver's left foot) and create male-female connectors between the gauge and the fuses?

yeah. But I'm also lazy. I will most likely try this other one (Xentec ballast) and put the warranty in play, since it will be off the car.

to be honest i hardly notice any vibes at all..i turned the ac on for a few minutes while sitting at a light and nothing changed .....i live in new york so i haven't turned on the ac for too long for obvious reasons lol...wish it was warm year round like you so-cal guys lol
when it comes to performance i notice a huge difference in response...the car launches alot better and shifts alot smoother...just a over all feeling of solidness and i am very happy with it...after doing this i really interested in the SURE Motorsports Dreadnaught Rear Differential Brace. but first things first and that is to save for the all expensive cp-e fuel pump lol

well that sounds promising. RMM and rear diff brace will be some mid year mods for me.
i wont need HPFP for a while, after a couple other small mods, ima go for an AP for Hypertech, not sure for how long gonna stick with conservative tune for a while.
but ill be waiting for a good deal on eitehr first i feel like i already get fuel cut tho. lol
aye, its USUALLY warm n sunny, unless it snows near Los Angeles like 2 weeks ago. haha
THIS wknd, sun is finally back after weeks of rain. So the club is having a MASSIVE club cruise in malibu through some canyons, along the PCH and to the infamous F&F restaurant, Neptunes Net. Tomorrow, gonna be so fun!

Got in my car today, and the entire car smells like piss...Well my daughter is still potty training. And had forgot she had an accident in the car seat the day before. Took the cushion out and washed it. But it still smells. Checked the cabin filter, just to cover the bases in case something weird was going on. Think I need to steam clean the interior? It's pretty disgusting, and for some reason it smells like cat piss also. Suggestions?

Try charcoal bags and/or Ozium air deodorizer in the cabin. If it works for potheads, it should work for piss smell.
I'll give it a try! Thanks.

Replaced front wheel bearings.
Yep, though in my case I used power extension cables for things inside a PC case, had the smallest plugs I could find that were three-wire plugs (I couldn't find any mini-molex plugs). So, the harness is two cables off the gauge to two plugs, with a second pair of cables that plug into that and run down to the tapped wires and the sensor case.
Ironically, after driving around in the Sun I think I might want to change the lighting to white during the day, the red is a bit dim, which means I have to redo things a bit when I get to it (either a new plug or rewire for four wires).
Actually, make the harness, then run the wires down through the hole in the vent (so the plugs can't be pulled through when unplugged). I tapped the wires ahead of time for testing, and then just ran back to the taps once the wires were threaded into the hole. It all worked until I closed up the kick panel, I think something happened there (like a pulled wire) that I haven't figured out yet. Nothing is ever perfect.
