Asian? *Thumbs Up*

I've always wanted to get a set of folding mirrors. Get them installed and snap some pics and you might just convince me to get a set.

^^ yessir!

Installation of the mirrors will not happen until I have at least one full day to get the wiring dealt with.

Anyways, I will snap a pic of the boost gauge I installed yesterday. It is working great and I like how it brings everything together visually. No more random hole in the cluster bezel pod!

Also, I will be holding off on installing the LCAs until a little later since we got the tracking number for the ASR brace/sway bar/end links yesterday! The estimated date for delivery looks to be Friday!! If all goes as planned, everything will be installed this Saturday! It is supposed to be in the high 50's/low 60's this weekend around here... woot!

Pics or ban.
LOL.


Glad to see the progress. Let me know how it goes when you get it painted. I'm having the same done after some unfortunate events lately.

Received the ASR kit today, and attempted install. Unfortunately, it looks as if the longer rear LCA bolts were missing and I could not install the brace/sway bar.

However, I was able to install the Skunk2 LCAs, and do an oil change. During the oil change, I fixed the sender wires which had dirt and junk all over them, cleaned everything up, and installed the billet oil filter I had. After cleaning, all the oil gauges work again!

Nothing too special. I plan on doing some sort of install guide for Rear LCAs. Then another for the sway bar/end links when I get the replacement bolts.

Gauges!

Kinda off topic but do you still have the stock mirrors? Both driver and pass..

Yes, but the passenger side is broken on the insides. A lot of gorilla glue and metal brackets I fabricated are in there. The motor does not work on the passenger side either.

If you are interested, let me know. I will be able to sell the stock mirrors once the power folding mirrors are installed.

Looking GOOD!
I like how your gages match each other. Thats something i plan on doing.
BTW where did you get the pillar for the gages? Im looking to get some for my Sol, i see a lot on ebay, but not sure if im going to have terrible fitting issues with those.

Just curious..are those LEDs? the red,green and yellow ones.

Both Gauge pods are from eBay. The cluster bezel pod fit beautifully, the 3 gauge pillar needed some work. It fit basically fit, just not as well as I liked. Nothing a heat gun couldn't fix though!

The AEM gauges are digital and light up with the red, green, and yellow LEDs, with red number display.
