Well I'm getting them. The car is cool but it's been a year and its starting to look average again. I want to spice things up. It's like sneakers, they're hot for the first few months and then you want a brand new pair. I'm not one of those conservative people that can like things to be the way they are forever or until nature interferes, you know what I mean.

I have a blacklight in my trunk. Its hard to see it because its next to the neons. I would suggest blue neons instead. A few guys already saw it thou who came out to the meet last week. They can tell you how it looks Hank has neons in his car too and looks really good. I believe they are around his Amplifiers. There may be pics of his car around the net. Look for the white E32K.

Well, Im still mad about that. I was on my way down to HIN and my fuse blew out for the fuel pump booster. Since it was Valentines Day it took 6 hours to get towed! And by the time I got to Evosport with the traffic it was 6pm. I couldnt do anything by then....

Well I had it professionally installed but you can install it yourself. Its only 2 wires, positive and negative. Not that hard to install. If I were you I would wire it to the trunk light so it comes on when you open your trunk.

Its from 02Impressor's sig. If you search the forum, you can find the thread(s) in which he memorialized his exploits of hi-rev dropping the auto tranny from neutral and reverse into drive.
