I havent gotten any decent pics yet. I'm working on some interior mods right now (mainly lighting but will be doing some repainting) but the big stuff isn't happening till I do the engine swap this summer wink.gif
All part of a plan.

I guess all that rambling means is I'll try to put some up soon. There's 2 (crappy) ones in my profile, but I cringe every time I see how dirty the engine bay is. And I did those grounding wires before I really started thinking about full presentation or even the best functionality, so right now it's looking a little rough.

Pretty car - of course I may be a bit biased. laugh.gif
Silver FTMFW!!! good looking car man..

haha thanks guys. I didn't like silver cars up until I got mine.
Taktikal, your name reminds me of drum n bass.
Negative, are your gauges actually red!? If so those are HYPE! I'm doing a mainly blue theme in mine (all existing lights being replaced by blue leds, and I did the super white/blue gauges, just gotta change out my radio and get a blue tictac cover for the clock(told ya I've been reading!).
Thanks for the compliments guys. I just cant wait to put some nicer rims on her and get any little dings and paint imperfections outta there. And as previously mentioned... engine swap FTW!
beautiful! very clean and simple. just some rims and that's it wink.gif

Not just the gauges are LED but the dome, the key ring, the lighter ring - everything but the CC. Gives it that submarine underattack look LOL. See my profile for a list. Blue is the easiest [availabilty of LEDs] and ends up looking the cleanest too. Good luck with it.

Edit - BTW - I new you had been searching by the title - "Get em" - laugh.gif

it's been hell (and it's almost getting expensive) trying to get all the right bulbs together. After multiple failed ebay orderings because of incorrect part numbers and bulb lists, I've finally got almost all the correct bulbs on their way. Just need to figure out which one for the light ring and how to put it in and I think I'm done. Finally found a bright looking blue dome light today. Already got the clear courtesy lens (thanks to searching wink.gif) and the ash tray bulb was ordered today as well. Even the glove box will be glowin a nice blue. Can't wait till it's finished.

I'm probably going to get it repainted this summer after the engine swap because of some bad paint spidering in the back (not too noticeable, but I notice it, and I'm not a fan) and some paint scrapes on the RF fender from teh previous owner. I thought about putting a modest kit on it, but if I did anything with the body I'd probably go with the gt-four (I think) styling (I love that friggin' hood!). These things are already built to be beautiful cars, so I would appreciate mine staying that way.

I'm tempted to switch the guages to red now. Damn that looks smooth.
LOL. You've finally got the right ones coming in - don't back track now. Oh yeah I forgot the glove box is red now too.
BTW - A sharpie is extremly good for changing the color of the bulbs and or making a colored bulb more red [or whatever]. That's what I used for the cig, key, glove, ashtray, etc.
maybe that's what I'll do. Save myself the trouble of trying to track all these things down.
I'm gonna wait till I see the 5led super blues in the dash before I decide for sure... but yours look real solid. I like the polargs, but I thought they would honestly be brighter.

I couldnt find even in the hanes manual how to get the bulb out for the key ring.

BTW - Did you happen to notice the speed and RPM on my gauges in my sig when you looked? LOL. Don't try this at home.
I can hardly see it. looks like the needles all the way right though. I don't think my poor little ST could handle all that quite yet.
133mph @ 7K RPM's. The ST only goes to 105 or 115 I think.
There are a few of us in the area. I'm sure there will be a meet at some point. Welcome.
Definately looking forward to a meetup.

And Neg... I've seen mine go 115 wink.gif
Didnt get up there all that fast yet, but it's been there.
yeah i got my little st up to 127mph but i had a little help under the hood(turbo) and yeah i would be down for a meet hopfully i will have her repainted also, undasighted nice car i like the silver and welcome to the site
Thank you. I was thinking about going turbo, but I want to get a lower mileage engine first. Dont even know if I'm gonna turbocharge the engine I'm gonna go with. Right now I'm leaning more towards a silver top 4age, cause I'm more of a high rev kinda driver, and it will look real nice under the hood with the car silver. But I dont know. I'd like to go turbo off the bat with the 3sgte, but I dont know of any mechanics I trust to do the swap right.
