Default FOOKhonda upgraded my 05 to 06 headlights... Thanks

I bought some 06 Headlights down in Miami last week and kinda felt crazy installing them. FOOKhonda on here was very cool to say he would put them on. I thought the new 06 headlights were converted to fit the plug on the 05.
I was TERRIBLY WRONG! Sorry FOOKhonda!! He ended up manually wiring them and did a great job. This dude knows his stuff. We ran into some difficulties on the way through but in the end a PERFECT installed upgrade.
It was cool to find a forum member to help...

Thanks again brother!!

That's cool, Osmar.

A tip: In the future, please size your pictures to fit the page. Say, no more than 900 or 1024 max wide or so. It makes the entire page very difficult to read due to side x side scrolling when they're left full rez. Thanks.

2 questions:

1. When you think you'll have the kit on and painted?
2. What vendor you get those craft square mirrors from lol

Gauge pillar install with Autometer gauges....decided on this set due to Autometers reputation in the industry and the bezels match the interior very well...just wish the boost gauge had backlit numbers...

For the first time this year, I washed and cleaned my Z. It was just too nice today, and the car was pulled out of storage at the end of March. I really need to polish the whole car and get her ready for the road trip to Zdayz.

She is alittle dirty but she was rode hard and put up wet. (It was raining��)
We also did all 100 and something miles of the moonshiner 28.

I talked to a local and he put me onto warwoman road in georga right off hwy28. It was way better than the dragon but not as long

Drove it at am-Fest, lost the clutch in the 1sr session. Drove carefully the rest of the day and still did some good times.

Need to tear it down now, figure out why with good pedal pressure it does not disengage.

Last session, major fuel smell , can't find it.

Oil being blown out the plenum gasket.

I took my centercaps off the wheels. I'll take pics of what exactly I'm going to do (before and after) and post them up.

Good story,Lane! How funny- my inlaws live 3 miles north of Warwoman and Hwy 28. Nice roads for a Z!! Props for epic pics in God's country.

Hand washed her yesterday and put her back in the Garage before the thunderstorm. Then today I waxed her. No fancy pictures or anything.

Tail of the Dragon is on my bucket list
