    UUGH revolting!

     

     

     

     

    You better steer clear. J/K I think they are very BMW and if they are on anything else it is incorrect. Depo are the best for the money Glass lenses and what not. They have options for projector or HID. Up to how much you want to spend. The plastic is pretty brittle though so you will have to be careful when installing.

  2. I went to replace the post cat o2 when I discovered the o2 heated circuit power wire was cooked! Must have shorted on the chassis and just cooked itself.

    I followed it up all the way to the rats nest in the harness on the firewall!

    It was cooked like this all the way up to the little power wire junction crimp in the wire trough.

    I cut a nice long o2 sensor off of one of my other spare wire harnesses. It worked out pretty well so far. All in all it didn't really take that long and It wasn't really that hard. You just need a multimeter to find the wires because they cannot be removed from the rubber passage that brings the wires from under the intake up to the firewall trough.

  3. I was replacing the thermostat when I realized the clutch fan blades and clutch were shot. There was a crack in the shroud but not all the way through so I left it. I replaced the broken fan with a new fan clutch and fan that I had and it was fine until this happened:

    You just can't have anything nice. I think what happened was that the shroud gave way where that crack is allowing the fan blades to interfere. Now I removed it and need to figure out a nice way to wire up the a/c fan to a temp switch of some sort.
