Damn that camera thing is sweet, but mine seemed to work pretty well considering what it is. I know I'm about not having the power there. I'm mailing the speed sensors (again, ) to Joe so he can finish my harness so we can see if we can get this thing running right.

It actually runs up to the monitor on the dash so i could tell where the camera was aimed for the different shots i was taking during the day.

Well I know when I get the harness my speedometer will start working (because I would have the speed sensors wired up with the new harness), but Joe is still working on getting VTEC working. He is doing a custom turbo kit on his car right now and once he gets his car running, he is going to finish making the harness and try to get VTEC working (he's making a harness for his car as well (he's running TL-S auto ECU, TL-S auto motor, CL-S manual trans)). Once he gets his working, he's going to send me my harness.

Well, I heard a knock this morning before I went to work and it was a UPS truck. I wasn't expecting anything but it turned out to be a new side mount from Tim at Innovative. They redesigned them and sent EVERYONE who bought the first set of mounts a new side one. I called him today and thanked him personally.



On another note, one of my headlights went out some time today (don't know when I just noticed it was out a few hours ago). When I turn the HIDs on, I hear a buzzing/clicking sound for about 1 1/2 seconds. Is that the ballast?

Sounds like it, although they buzz regularly as well, sometimes its just high pitched whine. Is the dead one buzzing too? Usually when they burn out the sounds stop, but not always the case.

The sound is coming from behind the drivers side headlight which is the one that is out.

I guess Joe's working on the harness still. He is doing this turbo project on his car at the same time so I know he is busy.
