Well, what made it simple was labeling the end s of the wires with tape.Fishing the wires down to the computer plugin was the hardest part. once that was done the wiring took 10minutes.I put everything back together and cut the car on and the rpd came on.The contrast was real low but I realized the automatic lights that came on when the car was on created the low dimming lights on the rpd.I cut the lights off and that made the world of a difference.The rpd was bought through CRATE ENGINE CHEVY and the derictions was also posted on the website making it pretty simple.I had to read the directions realy good nite before,ALL I can say is that anyone that can take one bolt out of the pillar to put in a turbo gauge CAN DO THIS!

I would if I had not gotten the mx 5. In the last 10 years I've had like 16-18 cars lol, been trying to chill. The cobalt was the longest I had one car I think.

yea the mazda is great but not at the same time. Its neat, small and fun but I do miss the power of the balt. But once I take a turn I get a big smile, I still have yet to find the limit of the car on my normal bends . And its always fun kicking the rear out, haven't been able to do that since my last RWD cars, Lincoln LS8 and Marauder aside from my F150 but that is usually not on purpose lol

Trade the MX5 in on a SS/TC!

In other news...4 days and a wake up and I'll be back in NC from Texas. Medic AIT was fun/gay/boring/torture but I'm glad it's over and sad it's over at the same time. Ready to drive again, finally!

IDK what you have been smoking but I want some

My Cobalt has been a nightmare but the bitch has stayed beside me for almost 7 years... My best is my Junkyard rescue RX7 that I can't legally drive...

Installed the K&N SRI intake on my SS/TC...it's so much louder when shifting, love it.
