Default Updated Pics.. Lowered with a few other mods

Finally lowered the car. Custom mounted my passport hardwire unit and wired up my zune to the changer imput with a panavise mount and proclip holder. Also got the front end repainted to get rid of chips and threw on a clear bra.

Should've shaved the sidemarkers while you repainted it. And it doesn't look low enough.

I tapped in to the amp at the changer plug. Used relays and a switch to kill the changer and use the zune as a sorce. The plug I used works on the zune and my ipod. Its just like the input adaptor thread in the stereo forum.

http://www.escortradar.com/shop.htm its the direct wire smartcord. I just took out the guts and drilled the 3 holes and glued the board in. The sticker on the front will just stick right on and your set.
I went with sprint springs for the ride quality and amount of drop. Wasnt sure about them but rides better than it did with the factory springs and got 2 inches out of it front and rear. So far no regrets.
