Bran, you've had your LED taillights for awhile now. What's your opinion on them? Good, bad?

I don't recall who did that mod here before, but it was a nice idea! And an easy mod to boot.

I backlit the side intakes many years ago, but have never wired them in or used them aside from these photos. The forum consensus was that they were tacky, but they’re not. They’re awesome. I need to get them wired up.
They are very subtle...I have them on a larger (ohms) resistor, so they are quite dim and give just the slightest green glow at night.

They are also technically illegal, which is why they’ve never been hooked up.

PROJECT MINI SUB...is in full motion. The wiring is basically done, the Sub is already working. BUT it still needs a bespoke body, so it can sit (invisible) inside the front dash (there is a lot of space on the passenger side).

uhm...i cannot believe it...rubbing my eyes...it NEVER really was below 10liters (per 100 km)...actually it was more like 11+liters average.
After using the (not affiliated) gas System cleaner (1/2 bottle per fill up)...I see that


Less consumption, better pull? Can't believe it!
