I have one you can have for cheap its in wery good shape I drove about 150 miles with it since I got it and then decided to scrap the car. I also have some other stuff you might be interested in if so I can probably make you a good deal on everything.

I pass that car every day. It's right across the street from Rush's and it's been there since at least June, when I moved here. It looks clean and all but it's been in that same spot for a while.. I hope the dealer's at least started her up a few times..

I cannot make Banzai's party. I propose that we still have a meet in Columbia in January. Chris just rebuilt my engine and I'd like to make a meet soon. Columbia meet. Someone pick a date and time and let's go. Too many people already have holiday plans to change on a whim like this. Anyone second?

that dealership is legit. unfortunatly that vert's autotragic. decent though. i won't be able to make it to any meet until dregg100 fix's my car, lol. i think that columbia would be better though since i can easily make it there .

I did tape them up right after the picture was taken. I took the picture right after taking the UIM off.

Has anyone done the simplified vac hose mod that could give some advice? Or any advice for doing this in general?

My advice - replace them ONE (uno, 1, etc) at a time. DO NOT pull them all off and then try to remember where they all went.
