What have you done to your P5 today?

Does anyone know where I can get a new bracket for the ebrake cable at the caliper? The ass the owned it before me didn't use the right retainer clip for it and it fell off on me yesterday when I was checking my pads. And, to top it off, the head of the bolt has been snapped off since I got her and I have to drill out the rest of it. AND... the bracket is bent all to hell from something. Might as well replace it if I can find one.

which side do you need? I'm replacing my passanger side rear caliper tomorrow.
 
Can some one get me the roof rack dimensions? Cross bar length and max and min of the spread between the cross bars. I tried to google that s*** and got nothing. I need to know soon because I may have found a cargo box for cheap and need to know if it will fit.

duct tape will make anything fit

And bricks...depending on what you're fixing...bricks will hold it up, and duct tape will hold it in...

I checked my stock for duct tape and bricks. I have plenty so I bought the cargo box (~3ft by 4 ft), $75 and only used once. So if the duct tape and bricks don't do the trick I can resell it and most likely turn a little profit.
 
Went for a check up on my alignment. All is well, even the guy was surprised the car held the for so long so he just tightened up stuff under there.

Came home and decided that I need to get my CR3 on. lol

Barry was great! I wanted the same color gold that was used for the M247 logo, and he wasn't sure so he sent me two different cuts. Can't recommend enough :)

I just installed a new axle shaft after breaking at the track last month, with just having surgery on a hernia it was a pain lol. I also will be installing new brake hose, you really cant see in the photo but the new shaft is a lot thicker then the oem one.

Spent about 8 hours this weekend rebuilding the P5 and Probe GT wiring harnesses. Slowly but surely. The pile of wires to the far left are snipped from the P5 engine bay harness. :D

Just bought a set of perfect E46 bixenon projectors (I know they're not most popular but i want foreward lighting vs width, and modded the E46 is a potent little sucker for cheap)
So we'll see how a retro goes when NOT using the Plug&play mini H1's goes

Starting to accumulate parts for rebuilding the wife's lights
 
Hmm... after a trip to the wreckers:
- MVP wiper switch - awesome mod!
- VICS solenoid (was broken)
- Driver's door panel (was torn)
- air box (was cracked)
- vacuumed it up finally LOL
