Hopefully, I'll be coming out to a meeting sometime soon. I try and get on here as much as I can, but that's not always the case. If someone shoots me a text, I might be able to make it out. haha 815.980.1942 I saw JDOSS's car on beltline last week I believe, it looks clean.

Here is a updated picture of my car.

Yep, can't make it. Taken enough Saturdays off work & just managed to get May 3-5 off for my niece's graduation which comes before anything else.

I'll try to make #14.

Good lord, that looks good. The Elise has always had a special spot in my heart. Hopefully, it will have a spot in my garage sooner or later.

I was searching through the old post on here for tint shops. I was quoted 300 for removal and tint @ tritek....seems to be a good price seeing as how removal cost 100 more. What do you guys think?

Okay, this is one for the Believe it or Not files. My trunk won't stay closed.

The open/release mechanism is working fine. After removing the latch assembly I checked all the functions. They all work fine except the catch mechanism. It closes fine, but the slightest pressure will release it. So the result is that when you push the trunk lid down and hold it, I can feel it catch. But as I start to let up on pressure (to hold the trunk lid down) it will release before I completely let off.

Some there must be something within the catch mechanism that is "weak" or something, and it can't hold it in a closed position.

Note, this has nothing to do with the electronics or otherwise. I've tried all the function with it off and disconnected. I manually place it in the closed position, and then I insert a screw driver and start to apply pressure simulating a force to pull it down and pop, it doesn't take much force to cause it to release.

Since there's nothing I can see that can be replaced, I'm assuming a replacement of the latch assembly is the only option.

Yes, one of the weirdest problem I've encountered to date.

Dallas Peeps!!!!!!

Anyone here from the DFW area that can recommend a shop to do a tranny swap for me? I'm going the route of either the Odyssey or Accord swap. Everyone I've called to ask for an estimate pisses their pants when I say the trans isn't from the same car. Thanks guys!

Moving this into to the Dallas thread. You will get a much better response! Best of luck.

I thought I saw you the other day at Friday's in Garland FADE, now that you're posting. But, as soon as I was about to say, "Hi", I remembered you had a younger son instead of a little girl & that might have been awkward.

That would help out the driving for the people out in ft worth arlington. Around the lake sounds good but its getting hot so depending on people. I do like burritos locos out there which is a good mexican place. Parking is a bit tight but the food there is worth it. That could be a place to meet up. Its been a while since I have hung around the Grapevine area so having people chime in would be great.
