Just found out my license plate light was burnt out. Had some led strips laying around so I throw them behind my license plate cover.

I have a few led light strips too and am thinking about putting them behind the grills on the lower part of the bumper and wire them into my reverse lights and see if it helps since my tails are blacked out. Think it would help?

Ya that would work fine and probably help a lot with seeing. That's how my reverse lights are mounted. I'll grab a pic to show you. Careful you don't "offend" some, not all, but a small number of the deucebags here who think they have the market cornered on how this car should look, or what you should do with your own ****. Some are rich kids who've had mommy and daddy pay for their cars, insurance, and 12 grand in mods just so they don't have to hear them whine about how jealous they are of the other kid with the richer daddy and faster car...And they think you should only have certain mods and upgrades by specific companies, or your car is "crap man".... Then you find out they drive an automatic!!! Haha! God im glad i have a house to pay for and dont have the time to obsess over a 20,000$ chevy!!! hahaha anyway, rant for the day is done. Good luck, do your own thing, and get your own joy out of your own car. And there still tons of awesome people here who are a great help, and are great source of info, just keep your eyes peeled for the deucier ones.

Winter shoes on. Put air in them and inquired about a rear bushing tool. Both front and rears are shot.

Don't do it unless you're doing an oil spray.

What I did Today

I put on a carbon fiber license plate cover, replaced a dome light that was shot, redid my evo mod, cleaned up and Armour All'ed my engine bay and interior, and painted the bowtie on my steering wheel center cap.

Safelite seems to have done a good job. They used GM glass which is good. A few scuff marks on my quarter panel on both sides from the guy leaning against the paint but most of them can be buffed out.

Edit: just noticed the rear defroster tab is missing. What the **** can't anyone do anything right these days?
