Btw.. Anyone have a DIY for the switchbacks? Also, a link to the bulb itself?? Ideally I'd like to get that done in the next month or so.. Along with clearing out/blacking my headlights

Look at Vleds for the bulbs and resistors. Or look in the garage. People have been replacing our factory ohm resistors with different ones for the switchbacks.

Nevermind on the switchbacks.. Just found a few articles on them. Looks like I can just change a shunt resister to eliminate the hyperflash..

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/g-109-diy-eliminate-led-bulb-induced-hyper-flashing-without-load-resistors-815219/

Just need to research a little more and make sure this works on the 07/08 model. Also, Makana, how many LEDs do you have on your switchback? I'm thinking I am going to go with the 60 led one once I clear my headlights.

No, my camber kits haven't come yet. Plus, I don't have help this weekend so even if I did have them I couldn't do it this weekend.

So what's the final word on this meet on the 14th then? Doesn't sound as though there is going to be a ton of people, so maybe just meeting at Pineapple's would work out.

Again...I'm fine with whatever, but we NEED to finalize a plan otherwise you know what will happen....it won't happen.

Well if you're going to be home, and there aren't too many people going, why don't we do it at your place then?? Seems to be the logical choice..

Also for those of you who are going to Boost for Boobies, check out this link...
They are doing a day cruise and ending at MAP for the event. There is pictures from last year, and at least 1 TL made the pictures. It sounds like it would be a fun drive. I was thinking of going, just seeing who else would be interested?
