i say screw AC all together XD
but i say sand it up a bit to get the last of that crap off.

Here's something to add to your list =D (actually i could add LOTS, but don't want you poor XD)
Euro Vents (maybe a nice big euro hazard switch =) )

alright, I'm now debating as whether or not to go stock look on the gauges or that absolutely tits German set...with the stock look I wanted to change the backlighting to blue with a little help from this link:

also, I'd be doing the HVAC panel with the blue stock conversion:

ECU has finally ZE'd the car! There were some issues before putting it in that were getting to be * cough* annoying, to say the least. She runs like a real jap now :mrgreen:
and yes, this biatch is getting a good scrub down soon, all pending the start of the warm weather season. any pointers on how to do the clean right or do i just get in there and start scrubbing??

both =P

actually i heard you can just cover the disty and than pressure wash the crap out of it (just dry out any water that gets in the spark plug holes after)
i'm lazy so that's my idea, but probably safer to just get in there and start scrubbing.

....now that i actually think about....i'm the slowest mx-3 in calgary on this board....at least she looks pretty :crying:
