I just installed the M17 today, they look much better than the one I had before(N17). The M28 for the rear is quiet complicated to me, can anyone tell me what's the easiest/proper way to change them? Thanks in advance

yup I saw your plates
My girlfriend thought it was weird that I got excited about seeing a forum member on the road. Was gonna track you down to see your modifications but I didn't want to confirm to her that I was a clk freak. Did you get to go to the tuner show?. My one year is tommorrow and I wanted to start adding mods. Guess I'll see some our forum members on the fun run on March 9th and check out everones clks. Mach430 I can't wait to see yours in real life. AolHoward did/do you work for Aol and/or make a lot of money on the stock?
I'll see you around Irvine!

lowryder, i got the access panel off and the popped the clip off the second panel no problems.
but I found the bulb in the fogs to be a h3 instead. it was incorrectly reported as h1 on the autowerksexpress website.
i may go with super plasma, 5100k now...

Silver !! I don't work for Aol but profits from Aol stock helped me paid for the car, but that was 2 years ago, with the way Aol stock is going, I may have remove the plate soon
I got my interior lites done with the Hid look bulbs as well, they look great !!
:p
My car is stock w/o any mods at this point, I found myself not having enough time or MONEY to spend on the car, I am not in school anymore, now is work & taking care of the house payment.
