    No real noticeable difference. It is a bit peppier at the light, but that may be from the 10 pounds of dust I knocked out of my air filter. This thing is mainly for dust mitigation more than water.

    Wonder how the air filter clog happened...

    Do you have any pictures under the hood of finished work?
    Also did you have a template or just sketch it as you went?

    Drove it to work with a tight turning steering wheel. Now I gotta drive it home with snowing falling on the ground..

    Got a stealership appointment on Monday, would do it sooner but I don't wanna lose my OT.

    Do not see any leaks. The PS reservoir appeared low, so I topped it off the other day. I did forget to completely turn wheels left/right after I did. Still feels tight to turn. I did do the step when I got to work this morning, 2 full turns each way. Hoping that may have helped. Otherwise I gotta tough it out till Monday.

    /e: Anyone with experience on this matter with power steering, feel free to chime in with any thoughts/concerns. I used Mobil 1 Synthetic. I have not checked the belt, pump, rack, or pinion. It is too cold for that. I feel like doing a complete PS flush and refill. Never done something like that though, so I don't want to do it during the cold.

    Swapped auto store backup LEDs for some JDM ASTAR Extremely Bright 2000 Lumen LEDs from Amazonia. The original LEDs did not light up the ground. The JDMs are a vast improvement. First photo is the passenger-side first LED. Second photo is the driver side with the new LED. I can actually see stuff at night with my mirror and in the camera. What a novel idea!2019-01-28 21.05.53.jpg 2019-01-28 21.05.34.jpg 2019-01-28 21.06.07.jpg
