I have been under the weather since last week, and haven't even had the time or energy to go start putting the car back together yet... Had to tear out half the dash and ignition to get at all the body modules... hopefully I will be up to getting it all back together next week when the harness is here... Everything alright with you? New job treating you decent? __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.

Ok, well at least it sounds like you've got it figured out... And yeah, work is good. Been working long hours, which is nice for the money, but tiring! I may have somewhere to move soon, just gotta go meet with the homeowner, and see the place. Still on the fence about it though, so we'll see... I would like to get out there sometime soon. I will probably be in Vacaville on Sun rock climbing with a buddy, so if youre around, maybe we'll swing down there and grab a beer? | | | 12-06-2009, 05:19 PM | #230 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2009 Location: Chicago Posts: 111 | Subscribed. I will be doing the same swap in the next couple of months. Great info. __________________ "Never trust a big butt and a smile" 97- 328Ti (daily) 01- S2K (auto-x, cruiser) 96- JDM Integra SiR-G turbo (1/4 mile, auto-x, road course, show) | | | 12-09-2009, 05:58 AM | #231 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: norcal - 94590 Posts: 3,186 | Ok, 2+ weeks later, I have possesion of a replacement harness... (About Bleeping time!) I took it over to the shop, but I do not have any time until this weekend... The shop manager is going to try to get it swapped in before the weekend.

Shop manager had no time to work on my car, as he had staff out sick all last week and had to work on paying customers cars, and today, come to discover, vandals had broken into his storage yard and broken into all the cars... Seriously lucky that my car has been inside his shop during this whole ordeal... So, on the bright side, since I have all this free time, my first batch of holiday brew (cranberry liqueur) turned out wonderful, and I am bottling it tonight for gifts... After some serious quality control, that is... Tomorrow night is the first taste test of my pomegranate liqueur... Wish me luck! __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.
