Ya that sounds good. Chris, I'm pretty sure he can ride along with you but probably only with you or possibly Scott.

Just look up the DIY posted here on the forums and you won't have any issues. It's real easy.

Where exactly are you coming from? If you want to meet up with the rest of us you could take 121 -> 114 and meet us at the Valero by TMS at I35/114.

so my story on the window lock out... remember that hail storm a couple months ago, well the day before i stopped at the store and my passenger window wouldnt go up, and since i am really ocd about my car i wasnt going to have it at work with my window down so i walked to work, then later that day is when everyones cars got hailed on. so the next day i took it to nissan because i checked all the fuses and the switches on the underside of the handle, i couldnt figure it out. well come to find out i must have pressed the window lock button and that was the issue the whole time, yeah they were laughing at me and this is the first car i have ever had that the lock locked out the drivers controls for the passenger window.. but the good thing that came from it... my car didnt get all beat up from hail

About to start the header install *****. Hopefully we will remember to take pictures so we can do a good diy thread since there really isn't one that we've found and of course mine didn't come with instructions.

Yes sir it is. This is our pressure plate, we do everything in house. We do not reuse other brands to build our parts.
