    I have bought a Freeway Blaster for my car. Figured it would be fun to have a little louder horn. Anyway. I cannot for the life of me find the horn under the hood so I can switch it out with the Freeway Blaster. I looked along the walls of the engine compartment, mostly around the battery since I figured thats where it would be. I must be as blind as a bat. So if you happen to know off hand where it is or where online I could go to find out I would be very greateful. Thanks ~MadroX

    Wow. This guy really cooks through the circuit: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/video_gallery...lap_record.html Also, I read for $215 you can pay a professional racer to drive you accross the circuit in a brand new bone stock 500hp M5. I think I might do that the next time I am in Germany! Especially after watching this. edit: fixed (I think--if you miss twice they make you log in)

    I was all like Yay! Cheap Xenon bulbs on eBay, and Elderado is just like... No, nothing good. (though I didnt ask about everything) So, is there anything even worth buying on eBay? http://search.ebay.com/9004_W0QQbsZSearchQ...gZ1QQsofocusZbs If not, ill go to the auto shop and get them, its just they are cheap here. So any reputable brands? Good bulbs, anything? Because he was telling me how they can explode in side your cover and I really dont want to deal with that, so if I risk that with every brand on there, ill just go to the store.

    Ok guys, I'm just looking for suggestions on tinting my taillights and headlights. I have an 08 Ford Escape and looking for a smoked or dark black look, but I want my brake lights to be decently visible. I'm wondering if you guys recommend any brands for pre-cut tints for head and tail lights. Or if you guys recommend any other ways to tint my lights, i'm open for it. Thanks and any suggestions are appreciated!

    Thanks to Xtremekustomz (Other message board) for turning me onto this website. I have to admit I hadn't heard of many of their products other than Mother's and Meguairs when I went there. But I went and got the stuff he recommended to keep the car looking it's best and not causing any swirl marks, scratches, haze, etc during washing, drying and detailing. Well I just finished washing my car today for the first since I got the paint color sanded to remove all the swirl marks, scratches and much of the factory orange peel, with all of the products I ordered. The products left the best finish I have ever had on any car

    hey guys! got some quick questions about struts/strut towers/suspension in a 2000 Avalon XLS. I'll describe the problem first and then tell you what the toyota dealership quoted the problem and solution would be. I have a 2000 Avalon XLS, pretty good condition that I bought from my uncle. 105,000 miles on it and all the options. I've noticed some problems with the suspension though. Some things I've noticed are a "clunking" noise from the rear when I go over bumps, the car kind of "skips" across the road, especially when i am like...merging into traffic at higher speeds on the turn and when it hits a crack in the road while i'm turning, the car feels like it really jumps …

    Ive run a very heavy system in my trunk for a while, and it dropped my rear suspension, and raised my front, ruining my acceleration and handling, this summer i plan on doublin the weight of the system. But before i do so, i need a suspension upgrade. at first i looked at an air ride, but i dont have room for the tank. so ive decided on a coilover suspension. The problem is, i have no idea what is a good brand, where to buy, what specs are good or bad. Im also not tryin to spend a ton of money. a quick search on yahoo gave prices from 800 to 1200++++. Id really like an affordable one just to help with weight. My car is a 95 accord, approx wieght of new system.....425lb…

    I purchased a 8,000k HID kit for my truck off of this site this past saturday. I was emailed a tracking number, but it still just says billing information received. I have sent countless emails without reply, and was also a little worried when my invoice number was ~48 or so. Has anyone had any experience or feedback on this site? I am considering filing a complaint if they don't answer the phone this afternoon. Thanks

    the beginning....86 fiero that i'm trying to fix up, just finished the headliner today. Process...remove the whole interior, because i'm going to fix anything that needs it, headliner came out and made the voyage to bburg with me. I started by removing the old headliner and the staples that someone else had used. I then brushed a ton of resin on the backside of the liner (not the front where the fabric goes so i could avoid messing up the contours). This strengthened the old thing a LOT and i ended up using about 1/2 of a (quart?) of resin. Then i layed two layers of fiberglass mat over the spots where the visors hold the headliner up since they had pulled away fro…

    Well im thinking about lifting my truck (03 z71 avlanche) but i don't really know anything about lifting or where to get stuff to lift it. I just want it to be lifted and look good. Don't really go off roading but i probably will if i get the lift kit. Not sure what kind of lift to do (body lift, etc, etc.) Not sure where to get stuff (which sites sell quality stuff at the best prices or should i buy local) Not sure how big of a lift to get (what would you get?) Also not sure on what tires to get (just want something to look good but also like tires with deep treads, also should i buy online or local) Open to all suggestions and comments.

    I'm lookin' at buying this 1988 Pontiac Firebird Formula 350. It has a 4 barrel Holley carb swap as well as a shift kit in the transmission, along with chrome valve covers and other misc. visual stuff under the hood. One of the main problems with it is that the speedometer is off. Way off. In fact, it's around 20 mph too fast. I'm thinking whoever installed the shift kit might have broken some teeth on the speedo gear. I was wondering if any of you have had a similar problem with the speedo being off, or know of anything else that may be wrong with it.
