Matt this actually just reminded me...I had them in the wagon, awesome bulb, super bright and a blue tint to them.

Well they just burnt out on the wagon, the highs worked but the lows didnt.

And if I remember right it was about a year ago when I replaced them. Ill check my records

No matter how bright the bulb, it's still going to be scattered glare by the lousy design of the lenses.

update: 05 RS Steering Wheel swapped in. I think it looks/feels great. My interior is nearly finish for now, once I get a stereo out of a WRX or whatever I find, and shift knob/boot still deciding on a short shifter/WRX set-up

finally got my Hallman MBC in the mail today. After some reasearch I decided that it would be best to wait until I have these 3 things on my car before installing it: K&N, 3" TBE, TMIC set-up.

The K&N should be here in about a week, the 3" TBE is just waiting on me to sell some other things I have laying around, and the TMIC I'm just waiting for the WRX coolant tank because I know mines gonna break. So I hope to be SAFELY pushing 11psi before the end of the month, and thats it until spring time!(motor-related)

OMG, just bought the cat back from my friends WRX. Its that Autospeedset-up, I cant wait to get it on!! Although the free no-muffler mod sounds pretty beasty, I just absolutely cannot wait to have a 3" TBE and the mods that will be shortly following it. PICS of the exhaust will be up tomorrow and once I get the charger for my video camera in the mail, Ill post vids of straight DP, and exhaust all installed. Thanks for looking!

02 Sensor changed runs quite a bit better.

Still collecting the parts (gaskets and such) for the TD04/TMIC install.

This last weekend, Jordan and I worked on our cars the WHOLE weekend. For my car we: replaced the starter solenoid contacts, cleared the headlights, finished my shift knob/boot/trim set-up, and painted alot of misc things: Some sections on the taillights, the spoiler, hood scoop, grill, emblems. I am letting them dry as we speak and will get pics up ASAP.

O yea! also just got my silencer delete in the Mail!!!

I almost forgot, I also got some Rally Armor mud flaps, and adjusted my e-brake.

The car looks sweet with the black! I can't wait to get my windows tinted and my black wheels back on!
