Default Not much today

Stopped at the auto parts after church and got new wipers and some Mcguires to give it some shine. I will be ordering led's and resistors tonight so I can fix my dead needles. Thanks Lexucan for the tutorial
Also called a friend about some taillights he has for sale for 10 bucks each, I will pick them up tomorrow.
Thanks to everyone for the info found on here.

Grabbed a cup of coffee. Went down to my garage. Looked at my parked 2001 ES300 for things to do. It needed nothing. So just walked back upstairs, cup of coffee still in hand.

Default Fog Lights

1994 ES300
I got up this morning and at first I wasn't going to work on my baby because it was 5 degrees outside but later on it warmed up to about 20 so I took off the non working foglights and cleaned them up even cleaning and re packing the elevation adjusting gears, New bulbs installed and now they look and work great.
It sure needs a bath though, Right now it's covered with road salt.

She is getting her 150k service AND a new transmission. The transmission was quite surprising for us...

It is Japanese version, 2500cc only. My city is right side.
DIY parts are cheap. (elect. dirver, led, heatsink, wire, tape, soldering)
Satisfaction is priceless
