I do the same thing sometimes, it's because if someone tries to get it out they are going to get a steel toe in the face or get ther head stomped on. eq. getting the bootOriginally Posted by Overdosed A18A
ok as far as sleepy eyes, what works good on this car are headlights that comeup half way,in other words the blink. comes up,goes back down. it's pretty easy,just haven't had time to do it. what you need to do is fool the light into thinking it's all the way up. there is a switch that opens built into the motor,you need to create a magnetic switch on the arm assembly that triggers when the light is half open. in other words a Normally closed relay in line with the light up limit switch. the light comes halfway up the magnetic switch triggers,it interrups the circuit to the light up switch,and the controller thinks the light is all the way up. by using a timer module and a couple of relays to turn the parking lights and headlights on at the same time this will cause the lights to open,all three relays would come on at the same time,the headlights would come on, the parking lights would come on,and the relay that fools the light module would come on. the lights turn on,the headlight doors come halfway up,then the timer goes off,the light doors go back down.
they're just words... mean why do we call it a trunk? it doesn't look like anything like a tree or elephantOriginally Posted by mkymonkey

as far as the trunk,it's believed they are called that because very early american cars would often have steamer trunks attached to the back to protect peoples belongings from the elements
The word "Trunk" came around in the 1900's when Automobiles had "Trunks" strapped down to a carriage deck behind the rear seat outside the interior of the car. The first "Attached" and/or "enclosed" all weather trunk/boot was on Ford's Model T Turtle Deck around 1915.
Fun Fact: In Southern Asia a "Trunk" or "Bonnet" is called a Dickie/Dicky or in slang a Diggy because they have to dig the spare tire out.
Back to "Lazy Headlights." I don't think they look good or proper with the way the headlight doors are shaped. My personal preference is either down, or up (only if there is a mechanical problem with the motor).
^ The word bonnet also comes from the original tie-down trunk on the rear of cars, because the two straps tie underneath like a bonnet ties under the chin.![]()
