I don't need anything like that though. I just want a single battery to prevent my lights from dimming from my el-cheapo battery with lifetime warranty

No worries. You surprised the **** out of me. I was spacing out & all of a sudden I hear my name called. I like the sound of your car a lot.

I shopped for a month-- gave me time to find a really clean one.

Oh, it has its flaws, don't worry. I had it detailed Saturday, so that's a lot of why it looks solid.

I hear you. I'm buying my friends MINT housings for my headlights so I can finally get rid of these hazy POS's. What were you looking for to fix your headlights? My boy is selling the housing (I'm buying), balasts, and bulbs. LMK if you need anything.

Btw, thank you for the compliment on my exhaust. I love it after I put those TP's on it. Night and day difference.

The ballast on my driver's side headlight is fried, probably due to the insane amount of moisture in the housings. Hopefully that'll all be fixed.

I DO need a running light on the passenger side. I forgot to ask Shawn about that.

My friend said 100 bucks and you can have both ballast's and bulbs. LMK if you want it.

I appreciate the offer, but I've already gotten the ballast I need. If the offer still stands in a few weeks, I may buy them just have a backups just in case. Right now, though, my priority is getting the car in perfect order so I can get an inspection sticker.

If you go to a place off of airline they really only check to make sure your headlights atleast turn on and blinkers...That's it.

Lol, I had a Red 91 Turbo (Production year was 1990, first set to be brought to America) and after that one got destroyed I got a White 92 N/A. I had all the JDM 98/99 moldings, 98 spoiler, 98 tails and fogs that I was installing on the white one and had a JDM 2nd GEN turbo motor on order before I lost that one too. I want to ideally find a 93+ but for the price I'm willing to spend I know I won't find one.
