I'll check it.

Pics come tomorrow! I wanted lower, as I wanted to tuck and be hella low, but the drop is good. Ride quality inproved a lot I say compared to stock. I'm pretty amaized how much shorter these springs are then stock, but thicker.

I've gotten very tired of my PNP light coming on and throwing a code, so I've decided to try and fix it. i have a slight assumption though, could my cable be misaligned? I was not able to start it one morning until I dropped it into neutral and wiggling it around until it started. Also, when driving in the morning before my PNP switch desides to cooperate, if I go to the bottom of Drive, and press the button in and go down a slight amount it desides to go into the right gear, overdrive, and shift when I need. Is it possible that the cable is mis-aligned? Any help of re-aligning it?

Poooo. Monies.... I mean, we can live with it but it is just annoying when everything is running well, then all of a sudden it flashes. I mean, it still works, it just sometimes doesnt decide to go along. Is there any way to even adjust the cable?

You can try adjusting the switch. It is a 50/50 shot. But usually the contact inside go bad/get dirty.

I think there was a post here about opening it up and cleaning it.

I played with the adjustment a little bit, so we'll see now.

Oh and what does the ECC Blinking for the REC and AC lights mean? I read somewhere, but I forget .

OH ****, that's right.

Ahahah, I should hop on that. My friend was supposed to bring his camera, but he never did.

I'm thinking about getting H&R Trax+ Wheel spacers too.

Halo headlights off. Time for retrofit again!

Bahhhh I'm so indecisive

I just got the pictures, time to upload them and convert from RAW.

I found a guy wanting to sell his halogen projectors for 30 bucks, so I'm going to pick them up and attempt a retrofit again. I'll keep everyone updated.
