Haha. Thanks Colin!

Whats up Angie.

Christian, just search 8gauge Amp wiring kit or Amp wiring kit. It will pull a few up. Here is one $29 shipped: Street Wires 8 Gauge Amp Wiring Kit
or $40 shipped JL Audio 8 Gauge Amp Wiring Kit
There are also some Rockford ones for about $50.

Tin, lets see some installed pictures of your rims!

I just installed rims on the GS fellas. It looks okay. It will do temporarily. I'll post some pictures up after the rain stops this weekend. Anyone know a good place to get an alignment?

mr.asian.m2 · 02-04-2009, 05:29 PM

ok...i can't figure out how to remove the mirror in the center of the car. i see the two cover for the night light. do i remove that to get to the screw? if yes....i try that and couldn't remove it. hard as hell. or do i just pull out the whole plastic. which i was scare it might break. help guys

Mark_Dorman · 02-04-2009, 11:14 PM

^Yeah dude...just pull. Push the back of it towards the window and pull down from the little gap where the mirror stem comes out. After the it just pops off. Probably won't break. The you have to remove the lamp housing and the mirror screws will be right under it

Maybe I should just come out there to help you take your car apart

Mark_Dorman · 02-04-2009, 11:53 PM

Hey Colin...didn't realize this but those seats you have are only found in G-limited MR2's

Here's the guys car I found that has the same interior...

Davis · 02-05-2009, 01:08 AM

Dark Purple Mica is the hottest colour.

EDIT: Oh Tin, thanks for the lights! and hit me up next time you guys go to pho for breakfest, yeah!

Mark_Dorman · 02-05-2009, 01:22 AM

It's gonna take me awhile to get used to your new avatar Davis...

Davis · 02-05-2009, 01:27 AM

Haha, I know right?? I think I'mma go back to my old one in a few weeks.

My old avatar was taken by Kay in his old accord and even though those wheels I had on were butt ugly, Kay took the pic.

masagsxr · 02-05-2009, 01:34 AM

91 mr2 turbo

Davis · 02-05-2009, 01:36 AM

Add a spoiler and it will look tons better.

Mark_Dorman · 02-05-2009, 01:47 AM

Doesn't look too bad...

masagsxr · 02-05-2009, 01:54 AM

Yeah just browsing through CL and saw that. I thought since Colin's car is red, thats how it looks... Pretty clean and simple.. i like it!

randomxzero · 02-05-2009, 02:01 AM

a little bit lower and it would look better i think..
but i like wingless 2nd gens..
o0o0o so sexy!!

Cjung · 02-05-2009, 02:05 AM

thanx ji, so... sould i get the 30 bux one? cuz it looks like it comes with everything I need, or do i need more?

Mark_Dorman · 02-05-2009, 02:08 AM

Yeah...I think the MKII wingless looks good if it's low enough. Otherwise it looks really funky

mr.asian.m2 · 02-05-2009, 02:42 AM

wingless.....

nooooooooooooo

again..thanks mark. i could not figure out how to take it off so i just call it a day. will try again tomorrow.

Mark_Dorman · 02-05-2009, 03:19 AM

You've got my number. If you ever need help you can just call. I've taken the two completely apart now so I know how most of it works...

honda_bar · 02-05-2009, 12:30 PM

Mark, that's cool about the seats, I'm still looking for the g-limited badge... can't find em.

Mixxer, If I did mine, it would look way better than that one, but I'm in the process for looking for a new trunk so I can have everything ready to paint. Plus mine is a hardtop!

thanks for that dude, it's close to the right color and I like bronze rims, just not those for my car.

masagsxr · 02-05-2009, 01:28 PM

Colin.. check this out Help with Seafoam...

I'm thinking maybe they just don't know how to use it? Anyway good to know i guess...

Davis · 02-05-2009, 03:08 PM

Old avatar > new one. I couldn't stand it anymore! Even though it was cute I couldn't get used to it haha.

mr.asian.m2 · 02-05-2009, 03:41 PM
