    1 - Installed new inertia switch. The old one kept the pump running in either position.

    2 - Installed new US style cigarette lighter. This will allow me to plug in one of those dual USB charging ports, so I can plug in my smart phone.

    3 - Installed new MattAligner. Wow, looks great!

    But I have not tested these three things yet, ran out of time. Wife kept wanting me to come in for dinner. I don't know why she keeps on about such trivial things........

    Exuberance! (Ignore that it's upside down, it was fixed)


    Enron rollercoaster of emotions!

    Also, these were really hard to get out in the first place but now the screws don't hold it in. What am I missing?

    There should be little speed clips that are up in there for the screws that attach to. I got the same LEDs in my car and their stupid bright. Worst case scenario take out one of your tail lights and stick your hand up in there and see if he can feel a little speed clips that are up in there.
    By the way I got that same time a high intensity LED in the interior and in the trunk and also the engine compartment along with the tag lights.

    Hi there,

    I don't know if this is VIN specific, but there should be a metal bracket on the inside that the license light housing screws fasten to. On my car they were loose, so maybe they fell out of position...

    I'll look for the plates inside. Does anyone know if the little connector can be soldered back together?

    Sweet, it's a thing that they still make.

    Thanks everyone! I found the bracket after taking the taillight out, and now I see my Home Depot sells spade terminals at my store (now that I have their name).

    Yesterday I used some panel bond to glue those damn metal brackets in place. While my dad and i were working on the car I was telling him how much easier it was now. Came in handy cause i had installed the LED backwards in one.

    I also reattached both front fenders, both fascias. I drilled out the holes in the front spoiler and replaced with some stainless bolts. Ill panel bond them in place too later. I also reattached the hood and aligned it as best as I could. Thanks to the transmission going out on my accord I had to prematurely put my delorean back together before I actually finished working on it. My dad was working on polishing the stainless while I was putting everything back together.
