If i know manofwood, then they will be.

He did my set as well and they were awesome.

Like a factory finish, never got hassled by cops for them either.

He is the Angel Eye - Tinted Tailight specialist !!!

Yes they are done from the inside. I did however toast a bit of plastic when I was baking them. And also manage to snap a bit of the lens off. But you would never know from looking.

Dude, I hope that wasn't due to me and my 'she'll be right, mate's!

Was surprised by how many tips there were, definitely outnumbered us dude's with a third pedal

Special thanks to Bennoz, Rock It, Kitty & Binh, Aza, Kaz and of course Man of Wood who we will now have to call Man of Angel Eyes.

Youâ€™re all have Legend status in my book.

Craig, my bloody window, the saga continues. Sat in side, the top right hand corner has a big gap I can get my finger through. Back to the drawing boardâ€¦. Where could I take it to get this fixed? Maybe uncle Dwayne will take a look next weekend.

Grrr ... That bloody window ... It was behaving so nicely when we were all there... Maybe even a panel shop may be able to adjust it properly or have a look ... I just can't understand why it is OK for a while, and then not ...

I might not have a problemâ€¦

Last night I modified the headlight bulbs that I bought (you know the ones Aza?) Had to file the insides out and clip one of the corners off to make it fit in the side light socket. I fitted them and they look heaps brighter, but didnâ€™t take it for a drive because I was drinking while doing it.

Then I reconnected the window control on the drivers side and the window mustnâ€™t have been fully up when you last disconnected it Craig as itâ€™s fully up and sealed at the moment (crosses fingers)

So, all Iâ€™ve got left to do is connect angel eyes, try and connect folding mirrors to the alarm, and fix the alarm.

car runs better though

nicholas · Post by **nicholas** » Tue Apr 22, 2008 11:44 pm

dB: mate, if I were you, I'd be takin that car to a f*cking decent mechanic and getting them to go over it with a fine toothcomb.

After all the money you've spent putting in 2 replacement engines, I would think that it'd be worth a little more money just to make sure everything (EVERYTHING) has been done lol.

If you need some suggestions for a workshop, let us know - everyone has their favourites, and you can pick the one that suits you best.

ahh serious?? sorry I didn't check it, since they were still all bubble wrapped up when I gave them to you and I didn't open it assuming everything was inside, since I havnt really touched them since I got them, definitely don't have anything at home ><

I can refund u your 20 bucks if you want, sorry should have checked it first but didn't think anything would be missing since I didn't really even open anything since the day I had it =/
PM me with your BSB and Acc number cos my fault for not checking before I gave it to you
