BTW, I don't think I've seen anyone else say it, especially with all the arguing from the other thread, but hey.. thanks for trying to find an alternate source of lights, at least. So it didn't work out.. at least you tried.

Hate to say it, but it seems this place has painted itself into a corner lately. If action X (speaking hypothetically) is the generally accepted action to take regarding whatever thing on our car, like dealing with a headlight or swapping an engine or whatever, even discussing action Y or action Z will get some to say something like "oh just do action X and be done with it".. but then some will complain that they're sick and tired of all the discussions about action X. I've taken to discussing a lot of this type stuff privately with some of the people around here whom I tend to think of in a friend-like manner. It gets things discussed a little more thoroughly, and it also avoids stepping on the nerves of the people who seem a little burned out and irritable around here lately. (holy chit, he actually puts some thought into the feelings of others around here? *gasp*) Oh well. Hopefully it's just some seasonal thing and will pass. The apparent burnout, that is. :p


thanks  :ies:

and I've found that a lot of car forums are like that. like a mustang forum, somebody says they want to port their stock heads and save money. EVERYBODY running aftermarket twisted wedge or edelbrock $1,000+ heads says to get the same heads they have, and that porting the stockers isn't worth it. they don't seem to realize that not everyone has a well-paying job, and that there are far better things for them to spend a grand on than some heads. besides, if everyone went with the same exact combo, there'd be no individuality, and nobody's car would be better/faster than anyone else's.

oh, and many people have told me to not try to make the bird fast, just get a mustang  :shakehead if I wanted to be like everyone else, sure, I'd do it. then again, I'd probably watch reality tv, wear shiznitty clothes that cost a ton, and have natty, nasty bed hair every day like it's cool
