    You need a foglight bulb to help pass inspection, WTF?! There are cars that don't have foglights to begin with, how is 1 foglight a worse thing than none. LMAO.

    I was wondering the same thing, but sure enough, on the printout, there's a spot for pass/fail of fogs, and if you don't have them I guess they just put N/A.

    You need them, now say it 80 times. LoL.
    X2!!


    In other news, I got the inspection done, put in a new 893 bulb and got two used tires with a healthy amount of tread, mounted and balanced, for $70. They don't match though, one's a Bridgestone Potenza and the other's a Continental ContiTouringSomethingOrOther lol. They're gonna be on for a week only, I'm getting the spacers this week as well as mounting the tires on the rims.

    Also, since I'm tired of driving a GALAN around, I hit the JY and got a T to go on the back of the car, and while I was there, I found a wrecked GTZ to grab the center dash speaker and passenger side tweeter out of since mine didn't have working ones. The system sounds so much better, I'm just gonna keep the front setup the way it is, I like it that much!

    I also grabbed a 8G-b (all chrome) Diamond emblem off a trunk and bunch of GALANT letters off of three trunks and scooped up some Diamante rear seat lights, I have two pair each of grays and beiges, not including the grays I'm about to put in mine.

    All this before 12 noon!

    nice!



    Wanted to hook up my JDM tails correctly and wanted my blinkers to match my car color more. I searched everywhere and couldn't find an "Orange" color bulb. Amber, white, or red is all I came across for the correct bulb. So I ordered the 30-SMD led's in the Amber color. It appears to have a yellowish color to them when they are on:





    So I ordered 50 Red SMD led's to replace some of the amber ones to make a red/orange appearing light.





    I found the duel red smd's are not as bright as the single so I ended up leaving 1 amber per strip and making the rest of them red. Total for both bulbs is 48 replaced.




    I don't have the resistors yet so they aren't actually in the tail lights, but here's what color the light is now:





    I did put it in the light just to see it and its a mix of both colors, it looks pretty cool though. They are bright too!

    Replaced my starter again for the "ump-teenth" time! LOL! That shit is a bitch! Only because of the placement of the bolts for the 4 Cyl. Works like a charm now though...

    Yeah it's coming off, I got a soft plastic non-marring scraper thingy at work, when I go back to work Tuesday I'm gonna take care of that. My other one didn't have it. I may use it on this mesh grill I picked up from Zobgel.

    Sounds good, try "Goo-gone" and or a blowdryer/heat gun to help remove the adhesive also.

    GooGone, fishing line, and the "G" and "A" from the Galant tag to pick off the rest of the adhiesive residue. lol when the GooGone dissolves the adhiesive enough, it can be picked away like that, and not scratch the paint at all.

    Finish off the debadged areas with polishing compound, all badging seems to leave an outline of where it was, the compound takes care of that.
