thanks to rains_crusader i got white leds installed everywhere. gauges, window switches, hvac, everything. red leds in the cruise control and ac/recirculate/defrost buttons. modification to the gauge face was needed to really shine white and red. no it wasn't cheap, yes its worth it. lol

Those are the old plates, new ones will be on tomorrow and to order the custom plates as well. To be honest I probably will make some modifications, on another note I now have 3 sets of Ion Redline wheels...

Nice acquisition Andrew! Low miles too considering its age, great find.
I've been thinking about getting a second TC or IRL as my daily but I think I'll drive the Neon for another winter (if she'll let me) and hopefully get something newer and German next spring or summer.

I just think the temptation of modding a Cobalt or Ion would be too big and one race car is enough lol

For anyone on CL, $70. For you, $50. Give me your stocker and $35 if yours isn't melted like the one I got from my G5. I can't buy a melted one because no-one would buy it once I swap it too. This one isn't melted at all. And kinda yes LED, technically it is called CMD but you get the idea. Got the board from the Impala/Monte Carlo.

Today I transferred over the info from 2.25beta HP Tuners over to my 2.24 and flashed the car. I did NOT realize my MAF airflow in 2.25 was set to grams per second, and 2.24 was in LBS/HR. OOPS! Car ran like ****, way richer than 9.5:1.

Yeah, I know what you mean, I'm tempted to slightly mod it, but then again I really don't need to. But I have to fix the crappy shifter and get rid of these sportline springs. Did an oil change the other day and replaced some dry rotted lines.

This Cobalt lettering placement has to be one of the sexiest exterior mods Ive ever seen on here. Its cheap to do and makes the Black SS look sharp as hell. Well done sir. I absolutely love it!!!
