    buying HID kit... need advice!

    Yeah righto, no need to get personal here. Just thought i'd share my input for OP. For what it's worth, you could have a 4300k light shining in your face and a 8000k light shining in your face.

    [VN-VP] [VR-VS] How to modify statesman/caprice rear seat side bolsters for a regular sedan

    Thanks heaps for the write-up! Just did this on my VQ statesman seats that were going into a VN. Since these seats weren't leather it was a little harder as the fabric was ripping a little. Also some of the metal rings just popped out so i had to improvise. Thank you :)

    lol that's what im getting done in the next few weeks. I hate how it looks being soo high, so some superlows all round should make it low but not too low. After that im buying a cat-back system, then that will do for the time being.
