Lol.

Seriously considering ordering a full leather seat set/brackets/etc for my Camaro, but that's $1150. Now with a code I can get 5% off, and on Nov 2nd they'll do a random drawing for one person using that code to get a full refund.

Do I go for it? Or do I hold off on doing anything with the seats in the car until later?

Hmmmmm

Gonna do that soon as well. Not enough time to wash the TB again so I figure the drive thru should work well since everything is fresh.

nonsense posts are still accepted in this thread right?

I say go for it. At least now you get 5% off and a chance to get them for free.

Unless you can get a better deal waiting until Black Friday which is around the corner.

 

[CaptainKD]

Excellent.

Pretty much got same results as me using my usual manual car wash joint. Only thing is the water pressure of this,touchless wash actually removed some paint off the rear bumper trim pieces I've painted. Door handles too......

I had to same issue with my home pressure washer. Had to buy a pressure regulator to tone down the pressure from 2800psi to as low as 1000psi. Most car washes are around 1500psi.

 

[Capote]

If there was a water hookup around here I would of gotten a pressure washer a while ago

 

[Mounce]

I've got an electric pressure washer but it's a pain to get out and deal with then there's the risk of chipping paint off.

More likely Hids since I believe they use a 9004/9007 style bulb which there are no crees for

I was hoping you'd say that. What temp?

Have you looked on Ebay? Many different versions. They might not be true cree LEDs though but you never know. They're in the $100 range.

Woo

Waiting for people to leave. 10 cars remain. 5.7 hemi jeep and an Audi are the only mentionables left.


Hoping the game doesn't go to extra innings.

Most likely around 6000k

Hmmm

I'd go with HIDs myself. Just a good brand such as morimoto if you can afford it.

Am I the only guy on GMTN without 6k's?

One evening I plan on spending a lot of time researching Hids again and talking to my supplier to see if our new ballasts are available yet

 

[Playsinsnow]

Get ahold of smitty...

Correct. I have 9004 HIDs in the F150. Interesting how they work to create the hi beam.

Good idea

4300K is where its at. If you want more lighting, they produce the most lumens. 5000K is even too high for me.

TRS is releasing their new Morimoto XB35 ballasts November 1st. Their XB35 HIDs are comparable to the Osram CBI. CBIs usually run $190 a pair. XB35s are around $50 a pair.

Nope, David and the other projector guys run 4300-4500k

That'll be the next color I get for the stang, started with 8k, now I have "5k's" from the same company that look like 8k...gap in quality control much? Only difference between the two is that they've updated their products. That's what I get for buying cheapies. I've recommended that company a few times because I was impressed with the first set, still am, but their new stuff appears to be garbage, at least their bulbs anyways.

Yea my old K3500 has H4 bi xenons...they basically use a little shutter to redirect the light pattern to the different areas of the reflectors.

Hmmm will need to scope that out..

 

[BlazingTrails]

I have 6k currently, I usually run 4.5k but I got these bulbs for free.

Good idea

He might he able to keep it simple snd he's reputable. Good luck, don't forget

I may end up talking to him about a retrofit on the blazer perhaps either way

9004/9007 variety runs a solenoid setup, no shutter deal. Don't know what order the pics will be in but, one is with it extended (low beam) and one is with it pulled in (high beam)
