    I wouldn't know what to do if my car DIDN'T vibrate along with the engine. The vibrations help me know when something is wrong, etc.

    If your a stock 3G or a so so modded then don't do it. But for us boosted cars it's very hard on the stock mounts an it would benefit us as for better traction am less stress on the drive train. Ace showed me a insert that fits the driver side
    Mount so I'm prolly going to get that. An I'm good.

    Re: Pico's 89 LX-i Build

    You should do a write up, on the replacement of the old filament bulbs with LEDs. I haven't changed any of my buttons yet. They're all still originally colored. I think red for anything heater related, blue for anything non heater related pertaining to air, and white for everything else. I get mine from here though: http://www.oznium.com/led
    Those guys are so fkn awesome with customer support. I asked for a sticker and a few business cards, they send me 5 huge stickers, and 20 business cards. 2 of my Pink Superbrights wouldn't work straight out of the bag. I called oznium and informed them and 2 days later, i have 2 pink replacements plus 2 extra for free for my troubles.

    They're from colorado. 2nd day after ordering, standard shipping and they're at my house in the mailbox. I'd imagine, you'd get them next day.

    they look a bit dim from the pictures, is that just the camera doing that? Also how well do these work with the dimmer switch. I would assume they can only turn on or off , not dim if its a simple setup.
