Your car looks great Peter. I've been a little neglective with my 2002 Golf allowing the "local car wash" to perform the "WORKS" for $5.00 heavily discounted by the coupon in the Value Shopper originally for $13.00 The car looks good after the underwash, wheels and misc perks added to the 1 minute pull through of automation at its best.IndigoBlueWagon said:I didn't do it, but I had IBW detailed yesterday. I haven't picked it up yet but the shop sent pictures.
Not bad for 200K+.
I'll have to get some (embarrassing) pix up soon, of my nekkid Phatty. Innitially, I was going to use the housing from an old Kenwood unit & remount it 90 degrees off the orifinal orientation, but even that wouldn't fit in the bracket. We ended up making an aluminum bracket & mounting the whole ball'o'wax off the diagonal strap directly above the amp. I may still use the inner housing off the Kenwood, just for a bit more protection. Time will tell, but I sure am glad to have my trunk back.TDikook said:
Worse. Delvi still isn't capable of resizing his pics. LOLSootman said:Holy Crap Delvi...That's quite change. How are we going to fit that on the Dyno next fall?
Hi Steve, hey it takes 300 gallons total, that may cost some$$$$$$$$$ to fill up with syndieselSootman said:Holy Crap Delvi...That's quite change. How are we going to fit that on the Dyno next fall?
That's a beautiful looking tractor and those headlight look great. Now I can finally have someone bring me a load of Syndiesel!!
thankyou, they came out better that I expectedSBAtdijetta said:
Thankyou Brian, you are right resizing pictures is not my best areaBrianCT said:Worse. Delvi still isn't capable of resizing his pics. LOL
delvi,
Glad to see you're sooo busy and in a new line of business. Great lighting. Must be a slight change driving a tractor.
Best to you.

I know, I really wanted TL's(bi-xenon) but no room, and on the high beam area there is a bracket on the back that does not allow any projector to fit at all.TDICADDGUY said:Very nice Delvi...although I'm thinking a quad bi-xenon retrofit would have been even better.
Too bad there wasn't more space, you'd think there would be on a Kenworth.
It is always a red-letter day when the final payment has been made. I paid off my previous car in 1990 and drove it for another 13 years. My Golf was paid off last summer, and it would be great to get another 13 years of service from it -- without payments.TDikook said:
I made my last payment in Septembre 2007. I figured that as long as the car does not cost me more in repairs per month then a new car payment it will be worth owning. What worried me is down time, like last Decembre and a rack'n pinion leaking a litre of PS fluide every 20 miles.TornadoRed said:
That killed me. The upside was replacing it with an Audi TT Quick Ratio Rack, brand new - not a rebuilt with tie rods attached [long rack] for under USD$400.00 when all the local dealerships wanted USD$850 for a short rebuilt VAG rack [no tierod ends]. Evidently VAG doesn't offer any new racks for some time now. All their over the counter stock is china refabs.
For future reference: if the rack is already leaking, then it won't do any more damage to use bulk AT fluid at $1 or $2/quart, instead of PS fluid at $2+ for a 12-oz can.BrianCT said:What worried me is down time, like last Decembre and a rack'n pinion leaking a litre of PS fluide every 20 miles.
