    Silicone all the plugs shut on your new ballasts every kit I had before the retro that where they went bad at... Unclip the bulbs and ballasts and I guarantee you'll see expiration or burnt on the prongs

    This is the second time the ballast has gone bad on this kit. Messaged the ebay seller asking them if I was still able to get them replaced again(bought a few months ago) Hopefully they'll say yeah and will send me a new kit like last time.

    There's a whole lot of tacos down here in Greenville! I doubt the ones I'm seeing belong to anyone on this site, but there is a sexy lifted red first gen by the Dominnos pizza.

    Well I sold the truck. Thinking about picking up a cheap jeep xj to daily drive and play with on the weekend until I can pick up another truck. Can't decide if I want to go full size or stay with another taco.
