Marlon,

You'll have to pick up the wire terminals- as mentioned you should be bale to find gold plated ones at radio shack for about $20 for 10.
As for the wire- get 4 gauge (nothing smaller). You need a mimimum of 12' but you may want to go over (13-14') just to be safe. I'll go by home depot sometime next week- pull one of the bolts off my manifold and get you a set of bolts and washers. I can bring the heatshrink as well.

So all you need to get is the wire and the wire terminals.

If anyone else is interested let me know and I'll pick up extra bolts and washers from home depot.

Hey Moodie, what brand parking lights are you getting? Price?
Rossel,

I think price is in the teens! I am going to Japan town and get them. I'll get the same ones as Brandon. (I saw him when he picked those bulbs up in Japan Town).

May be Brandon knows the brand of the bulbs!!

man, talk about living the life!!!

Hey Moodie, can you just pick me up a set as well? I checked with my bro and the said the highbeams are from SPP down in LA. About 30 bucks for a pair. I'll try to get more info on that and get the orders in. PM me if you want me to order you a set as well or once I find the info, I'll post it here and anyone can order and bring it over at the tech day.

Default Hey Guys,

Just came back from Japan Town and only got 1 set of parking lights for now! There are many different types with super white to HID look, the list goes on. I got the PIAAs for $18.99, but I know Brandon got Razo for $12.99. There is also another brand HyBrid (or something like that) for $9.99 a pair. Please let me know which on do you want and I'll get them before the 31st.

Brandon used size 194, but size 168 is exactly the same, just AMP difference! The few shops I went to all say the minimal difference in AMP will not make a difference.

I am going to LA this weekend and may get some bulbs there instead. Let me know!!

My Brickyard and I would be interested in a tech-day for some assistance in hardwiring a V1. Maybe I should look into a grounding kit, too, hmmm. And it's also be great to check out some other Zs!

Anyway, I'm plannin' to be there on the 31 if my work travel schedule is permitting!

Default I need Zaino or CrystalGuard

Hey, I haven't done crap to my car's paint yet. Absolutely nada. If someone brings some Zaino or Crystalguard or whatever you guys recommend, I'd like to do that on tech day =).

Default Hey Brandon,

I don't mind bringing you the Zaino stuff, the problem is if you haven't done anything to your paint, you may have a long day ahead of you! With Zaino, first you need to use Dawn to wash off the wax or whatever the dealer put on, then you wash the car again with Zaino car wash. After that, I think it's best to clay bar the entrie car, then depending on time and how tired you are, wash again or wax the car. If waxing, let dry, buff the car, and use Zaino Z5 or Z6 (forgott which one) to wipe the entire car again!

As for Crystal Guard, I still have the application and install kit if you want to buy it off me!!

Arghh what a pain. Maybe I can just skip the clay part. I've read both positive and negative stuff about that, or maybe I'm just too lazy, take your pick.
