So I was getting coffee this morning and saw I was again sitting with one light on. I didn't want to get out and bang the crap out of it like last time, so I just broke down and bought new ones. I went to Schucks and got 4 silverstars (two high, two low) and let me tell ya... NOT CHEAP. It came out around 108 bucks, but I am mailing in a 20 dollar rebate, so that will knock the final price down to 88 bucks.
I got home and started changing them out and crap and I found that the previous owner had put in Eurolite bulbs (looked like blue bulbs, but were horrible at lighting the road, and they produced yellow light). So I start changing them and quickly realized that no one with a normal sized hand can do this without jamming into something (Relay box, headlight adjusters, wiper fluid resivour ect.) Well it is finally done, but I wont be able to fully appreciate it until tonight coming home from work. I kind of miss my MK2 GTi now, because it had Hella Brights on it and.. well they were exactly that. Plus the 16V or the VR6 swap was easier, cheaper, and ultimately faster than a 3S swap.. mainly because those cars weigh like 1700lbs. Anyways.. just wanted to share that. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
