ok i decided to do a little modification to my HU harness. I liked being able to turn on the radio with the factory HU without having to put the key in the ignition. In the harness you have to tap the red wire (ACC) to the cig. lighter acc wire. If you connect reds together in harness the HU will stay on instead of powering up when the car turns on. So I decided to connect red wires together on the harness but I'll put a switch in between the two wires so I have the option of turning it on without the key in the ignition like how the factory HU use to. I like sitting at meets and watching DVDs or listening to the radio without the car having to be in position II. I'll post a pics after I do it later this afternoon.
Think i'll mount the switch in the ashtray or someplace concealed, maybe under the dash, we'll see.

ok.... made some extra cash this weekend, THANKS MIKE! lol So I'm going to try and do my exhaust this weekend hopefully wed before I go to austin, if not it'll have to be saturday. going to outline my bumper so I cut the opposite side exhaust cut out. I'll record the exhaust on my T1i so it'll be the best quality I can get out of it.

think i'm going to run it like rolands and remove the secondary cat. That way if it gets too loud I'll just put a vibrant resonator where the cat use to be.

It was good meeting you, and riding in your UTRA LOW 230! I still can't believe that the ride stayed so smooth with the ride height, and you are an expert at dodging pot-holes Can't wait to see the exhaust.

maybe we'll get a texas meet going like we said. We can all meet in Austin or something. I still must go lower. I think this weekend I might do my little perch removal to see how low it'll go since I'm already all the way down in the front.

I use to park as close as I could to a car if the a$$hole took up two spots. Sometimes I would park on one side and my friend would park on the other and just sit or hangout where we were going and wait and see the punks reaction. Sometimes my friends would put gum on the inside door handle too lol
I'd rather just park far away instead of caddy corner some spots.
