    So, I love working on cars and am a generally a nice guy, so I like to help others out. I bought a home and got the first time home buyers credit. I just got the money and decked my garage out in air tools. So, if anyone needs help. let me know. I have some experience with lift kit installs and am pretty smart and can figure things out. I'm also an electronics engineer and can do stereo installs. including steering wheel interfaces. the cost is usually buying me a six pack of some good beer. So, feel free to PM me.

    Seth

    Theyre in the lighting forum. They look just like any other conversion. I can do any color combo. My camera is terrible so the pics didnt come out that good. Here ya go. I did blue with white in the odometer and PRNDL, and red needles. The blue color is a little deeper than it looks in the picture. Its just because of my camera. Locals will have a chance to see them first.
