I noticed the little car image on the bags for my winter tires looked somewhat familiar...

It kinda looks like it's ready for hover mode.

Installed the same LED headlights with halos that Christian Dietrich did back in October 2017 as described further back in this thread. Thank you for listing the parts and letting us know what worked for you! Pretty straightforward and looks so much better than the original ones.

Picked up the sub box and kick panel enclosures from DMC CA. I'll spend the next month or two overhauling the stereo, replacing the foam under layers in the car, and refurbishing the carpet.
Note: The kick panels are sized for 5.25" speakers, not 6-6.5" like some of the previous posts I've seen here. They must have gone through a redesign?

Today, I installed Dave McKeen's (Bitsyncmaster) Fused Fan Fail unit and his Solid State Cooling fan relay. During testing, I saw my fan fail light come on for the first time as I just had the fused jumpers. (I previously replaced the bulb with an LED version.)
What a great upgrade! Very nice features on both units.

Today I performed a few speed tests to check the accuracy of my new SpeedBox. Very happy with the results!

Yesterday I installed new condenser, radiator, fan shroud, fans, radiator duct -- of course all new hardware/fasteners for everything -- plus weatherpak connectors for the fans. Also tested fans. Very happy with the new radiator & fan shroud from DPI.

Did a car show Saturday, I won peoples choice!
but....
Then later that night I was driving and noticed the temp was at 220 and rising. It never gets that hot. pulled over, to find My coolant leaking out!
I've replaced every coolant hose in the car all of the valley hoses and everything EXCEPT the two right above the fuel plate. The ones right in the middle of the car underneath.
Now they are ALL done, fixed her up this afternoon, and took her all around town, she's cooling like a champ now.
Heres the ruptured hose because I know everyone love war stories and the scars to go with them.
