So seems like my car didn't like the regular bulbs, took them off and my blinkers work perfectly. Who need the blinkers bulbs when you have 2 switchback halos rings and 1 extra switchback led strip

Suggestions?
Does your cruise control work? if not or its spotty try plugging the 3rd break in a different connector. otherwise you may need to put the incandescent back in or install a resistor

Don't mean to sound like an idiot, but what do you mean plugging it into a different connector? LED to powered wires? wires are directly connected with stock LED board plug. Resistor i'll try if needed, don't use CC often so i'll have to check it today.

A teenager in a colorado with his friend pulled up next to me at a light. Of course he started revving and jerking forward a bit like he wanted to race. The light was red and the intersection was clear so i did a quick little launch and slammed on the brakes just before the intersection. Then i see the kid go flying through the intersection, running the red light. Success

The stock 3rd brake has 3 incandescent bulbs. Generally you would plug the LED board into one of the 3 connectors unless you removed that entire piece altogether. So if is plugged into 1 of the 3 change it to a different one and see if that does anything

Just stalled. My car $#%^% knows better than to die for good. I would bring it back to life so I could be the one to end its life. And it knows that. I'm thinking it has to do with the really strong fuel smell I've had lately.

Fuel leak? salt and the brine are nasty on cars. Mine passed inspection this year, but on the drive home the fuel line sprung a leak from all the winter corrosion. I hate the north for that reason.

I've decided to put the SC swap on the back burner until I put a newer engine in it with lower miles. It has 183k But I don't want to play with fire.

I finally found a local yard that has a sedan with black door panels and I'm gonna grab em if the price is right. That'll be one step closer to my black interior swap. Still need seats though.

^ I have couple black leather fronts, but you're a minute away and shipping would probably be as much as I'm asking.

Got my car from the exhaust shop. Car is loud as hell under load, but cruising it's very mellow long as I'm under 3k rpm
