Overall everything went smoothly. As you can see from the earlier pictures, his headlights were really hazy on the outside. I hit those bitches with the Mothers Powerball (sounds dirty ) and was able to clean them up fairly nicely.

His switchbacks flash amber-off-amber-off and I tried to capture that sequence with two pictures posted above.

He considered blacking them out but I'm glad he decided to stick with the clear!

Also, we followed Roger555's thread about soldering in a resistor to the turn signal relay in the fuse box. We spent more time trying to get the damn cover off than we did soldering anything

Oh and I haz Smart Water beecuz I iz smart bruhhhhh!



You can thank me now

If you have air tools and a nice environment. If you're using hand tools in a parking lot, yeah that is not fun.

Not when you have bad ass air tools.

You must have teh teeny-tiny air tools that couldn't even turn a hand tightened nut.

some just won't budge.

Depends on the torque of the tools though.

My dad's can take off my lugs with 2 quick pulls of the trigger.

Funny...was emptying the attic of stuff I don't need...almost tossed an old office chair and decided to leave it in the garage...so far, it's been useful too! Gotta preserve that back!

I need some smaller pads for headlights...it's hard to maneuver my 8.5" ones...

if you could zoom his avatar out, you'd see it's actually a donkey nailing her. Morgan loves to visit Juarez, Mexico.
