    Run by an auto parts store and have them check it for you, they do it free hoping you will buy there part.

    When my CEL came on last year, I got scared. It was just an O2 sensor that I had to replace. I bet that's what it is in your case.

    Haha holy cow, I have mine stuck behind the shifter. I wouldn't want to stick it in the pocket cause it would take up space, and you couldn't see it if it was where the E-brake was.


    You can see mine in this picture, underneath that other pocket:

    One of the reasons I picked up the scangauge, can read the codes, fix them and clear them in seconds. Plus it's nice to know how fast I'm really going with 33"s

    What dash mat it that? Do you like its fitment? Looks as tight as I've ever seen one before.

    I am pretty sure its the Original Dashmat. I have had it for a few years now and haven't removed it since I put it on, it was one of my first mods. It fits good enough for me, it doesn't completely fill in the dip on the passenger side but I could care less. I bought it off of AutoAnything while it was on sale for only $20.

    One for a 98 and up would look different, it would have a flap for the airbag on the passenger side that your not supposed to secure with the Velcro strips. I assume you want black to match the interior theme?

    I want to get some of those, but for now I have those blackmarket Chinese H4's. Might be the same thing for all I know.

    I know duratracs don't have the best reputation but I found a set on craigslist with 1500 miles on them for $650. Would $400 cash plus 2 10" kickers, and a rockford 400w 4ch amp be a good deal for them?? Keep in mind I do 99% of my driving on road. I don't get many chances to wheel.

    No I plan on ordering 5100's and eibach's soon. I am on mickey thompson wheels with 3.25 backspacing so they will fit. It seems like a good deal and I would just be getting tires before a lift lol. I just feel like I could get more than $200 out of the subs and amp if sold separate..
