I don't have a garage to park in. I typically look at the 10 day forecast from time to time, and if all 10 days are clear, then I wash my car! Haha

We're supposed to get like 2" per hour, last I heard. I probably won't be going anywhere Thursday or Friday. Work from home!

Yeah I had issues with the white light on the drivers side not working correctly when the car was running while the amber signal portion worked fine. Called vleds and they said to add a load resistor to the turn signal circuit. Luckily I still had my old ones before I did the turn signal mod. Adding in the load resistor fixed the problem on the drivers side (passenger side was fine on install). Everything has been great since. Just wish the 6ks had a little more bluish tint to them.

Anil, you cooking that chicken this weekend in the snow?

Sean, I want to do some plastidip work soon; wheels, grill trim, etc. I'm buying new tires soon, so would it be better to dip the wheels before or after the new tires? I'll ping you at work tomorrow if you got some time to talk (and if i remember to).

I did have them installed originally but took them out when I did the turn signal relay mod to prevent hyper flash. Didn't need them after that... until now on the drivers side.
