know anyone with hptuners? would help to see whats going on deeper then obd2. I really think there is some wiring fault that you cannot see seems to be the only thing that fits.

Installed RE Mirrors and Dynamatted doors.

Mirrors look sexy.
But can't see worth a ****.


Anyone know if I can cut my stock mirrors to size or have custom mirrors cut?

Don't know about the mirrors.

How was the dynamat? Hard, did you feel like it made a difference?

Dynamat? Oh man. DOOOO IT.

It makes SUCH a difference that I thought something was wrong with my engine / exhaust after I installed it (yes, that quiet). Mind you, I had done the Dynamat before I reinstalled new carpet and that's there the biggest gains were I'm sure.

But just today I finished the doors - so jury's out on how much of a difference that makes. I *can* tell you that shutting them changes dramatically, they just feel much more 'solid'.

I will be doing the hatch next (later this week).


All in weight-wise... I'd say it's about ehhh, 15ish pounds. About the amount I can afford to lose on a diet. =)

I need to jack it up sometime and verify what mount is destroyed. I might just buy some nice race mounts as the parts arent that expensive. I'll let ya know if i need to buy anything.

Yep. I'll just give it to you. Shoot me a photo so I make certain to bring the correct part.

Edit: And this kids is why you are always friends with the guy who has a parts car.
