I grounded the lights through the "supervision" wire on the dome light so they go out when I lock the car and light up when I un lock it or open a door.

Awesome! I plan on doing this in the Spring. Do you have a write up or makeshift diagram that could help? These look great.
Nice idea but Too bright IMO. A more OEM looking, more subtle & dimmer light would've been more tasteful.
Its still pretty sick and a great idea. maybe ill tackle it one day. you think amber would look nice?
finaly put in my eclipse seats :) i might post up some pics tomorrow or sunday.
Please do i wanna seeQuote:

They only look so bright cause I took the pic from pretty close with my IPad. In terms of a wiring diagram they basically get 12V directly from the battery, I ran the ground wire up my a-pillar and tapped into the "supervision" wire on my dome light for the ground... If you need more info PM me. I think amber would look fine if that's what you want. We like to say in my CC... Build Your Own!
Still really cool. Great idea
Looks good i pm'ed you a quick qestionQuote:

I bought this Movado quite a while ago but decided to take it out for a spin last night.
Very nice man! I got a limited edition Movado chronograph when I turned 18, was my dream watch. Been through a lot, love it to this day!Quote:

Nice Carl! My mom gave me one for my birthday back in November:

Dknight3 - looks good, I was thinking about doing like a two tone of black & gray on the door panels & dashboard using black cloth or suede. Yours is making me want to do all black, lol! Just not sure what color I want to do the shifter, radio, door trim yet.
do red and black
^^Red and Black. Listen to him!
Looking good dknight!
wow it is looking good. since my car is already black it defeats the purpose of two toning. i already painted my shifter bezel and door handles gloss black and plan to dip the rest. i was thinking black and white or black and red
They look so good when new. I would like coils because of their adjustability, but I don't need 'em, so I'm going cheap with my drop (whenever I get around to it). Gonna be a minute though, Uncle Sam isn't being friendly with my tax return this year.
Looks good! Mitsu should've made black interiors as an option.Quote:

Coilovers are so much better because I didn't get the drop I wanted with the AGX's and they didn't handle as well as as my BC's. And the ride isn't as bad as I bought it would be either. It's about the same as AGX's and Tein S-Techs when you have the dampening dialed down to soft.Quote:

^^That sounds like good advice Will. I've heard conflicting things about D2's, some say they're good, some say they aren't. Martin kinda sold me on his AMR's, but that $1700+, that's why I keep thinking I don't need them, but if I go all in, I want something that will last and not give me problems, or have some sort of guarantee if something does go wrong.
And yes, Uncle Sam is raping me for my income tax return, putting more strain on my finances as I come up with this down payment on this house, pay these bills, and pay a second mortgage ($2K+ a month) to my kids' childcare center.
2k/month on childcare? jeebus.
I wouldn't touch D2.
i did the exact same thing. went from stock gtz to tein and agx, then to megan and agx, then got a good deal on some ksports.Quote:

i would recommend saving up for coilovers, and you don't have to get the real expensive ones, i don't think you plan on doing any racing..
+1 on this ^^^Quote:

Buying a set of AGX and lowering springs is almost buying a set of coils.
Just save couple hundred dollars and get coils. I like my megans coils but when I bought a set of BC coils I like them better than megans.
2k a month on childcare damn dude thats nuts
I freaking take home 2k a month!

Nice truck Bryant, they get up too when they want to, ask Bernard (Mante) lol, the diesel Excursions are no joke!
<---pays $509/wk for childcare. Paid $21K total last year. Price we pay for having both of us working, no other (free) alternatives, and wanting our kids to not sit in front of a TV all day. And living in our area, $509/wk for a 1-yr-old and a 2-yr-old is cheap, I could easily pay 50% more at the more well known centers around here.
Back on subject though, I'm going to look more into coilovers. I want a Diamante next year to pimp out, I know I'm going to have trouble finding coils that fit that, so AMR might be my choice since I know they can make a custom set if you send them your strut/spring setup.
QFT, speaking of which I have the BC coils that you had sold to Dion lolQuote:

Were does one buy BC's at a good price?

Mannnnn that's so much for child care. Good thing it only last until they're 4 or so years old.
The Internet lol! J/k! Idk of a specific place, like I said I got mine from Deeznutz...Quote:

Screw JM, his prices suck. I have never once gotten a quote from him that wasn't more expensive than alternatives. You can always find it cheaper on eBay or Amazon or somewhere else where purchase takes 5 seconds and they ship immediately.
BC's are nice but I got the D2's free so I have no complaints.
Looks great!Quote:
