Re: Ebay Glow Gauges

as far as the lighting goes, I dont want power wasted by any extra bulbs that arent needed behind the new gauges, can I take those out that are used to illuminate the oem ones, or should I leave those in, and what will happen when I turn the original dimmer knob?

Re: fuel needle

unfortunelty i have never performed an install using those types of gauges. Do you hook those up directly to the headlight on/off switch and the dimmer switch, or is there a separate switch to change the color, and turn them on and off. Lastly, if there is a separte switch, when the head lights are ...

Re: cold air intake from street-import.com

So you mean that the filter is too large to fit behind the head light hole, so it needs widening? Also, does this filter need to be protected from water, or is the setup ok? Lastly, what are the horsepower gains? :froggie_red:

Re: front and rear topspeedauto.com strut bars

front and rear topspeedauto.com strut bars

just got these and was wondering besides the straight forward install, is there any adjustments that need to be made to the bars such as tightenting or loosening the bolts that would affect performance? Thanks
