Jon, I haven't used the CARAX fuses (or any of the other brand LED indication fuses). However, I'm generally not a fan of this type of blade...
@bspellerin , Looks great...nice job on the install! BTW, if you want to get the wire connections to match OEM housings, you can order these from...
Thanks @Erol ! Already replied :) On the dielectric grease, it's a fairly hot/contested topic in the automotive EE world. While the grease will...
@Erol Based on your pictures, you've got one (or a combination) of four issues: - Poor contact at the spade terminal: This is highly likely as...
Before taking them apart, I checked out the resistance across the contacts: - The "at rest" circuit was at about 2 milliohms (that's very low)....
Nice find, Brian! This confirms my suspicion -- the window system (at least the drivers side) has been rebuild at some point in its past. The...
Finally decided to tackle the window gear clean-up this week (after my driver's side cable decided to slip off). Everything came out fine but I...
Really kind words...it really means a lot. The goal in all my component projects is to build something that has the same look and quality as OEM...

I've really debated weighing in on this topic as folks seem to have such extreme opinions regarding electric power. We tragically live in a world...
I like the blue painters tape on the bumpers. I do that to all my cars to prevent scratches when I back up into the garage door. My only concern...
@derekw Few questions: - Will the aluminum be raw or finished (anodized, chromed, etc)? - Will the valleys be painted or still bare? (assume bare,...
Thanks Derek. Once the CAD is reasonably close, I'll definitely send out for quote -- altho I'm not hopeful, if they come back around $150 a...
So I've spent a bit more time looking at these grilles (and enlisted the help of one of my colleagues at work). Few conclusions on the original...
Richard, looks great and congrats! Altho I think someone stuck the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car. You might wanna get that looked at...
Few notes Interior LEDs (dash + lighting): - There is a choice in "temperature" of LEDs. Choosing a warm color LED preserves the original green...
Heh. I literally just started working on designing a new replacement this week :) I'm missing the passenger side and these seem nearly impossible...
