So I shaved away my air vents, and put in gauges.

nice screen beck. what are you going to do about heating the car in the winter if you have your vents shaved? just run the defroster? and why don’t you get bored and fix that bondo’d dash.

OT: room mate’s SUPER pissed at me…you might be getting in sooner than we thought.

its for the lights in the gauges. and to power the dvd player ☹

a lil while ago i posted about how i fried my ignition wire going to my cd player…so the only way to get power to the cd player (that was easiest) was a switch going to the battery. I need to get it fixed and done before i get rid of the car.

meh it doesn’t really bother me… it was just i had them laying around the house, and was super bored…plus wanted some eye candy. I’m trying not to dump too much money into this car, just for the fact that I will most definitely be in something new by the end of winter.

when i do get the new car… Defi 4L

I KNOW I KNOW, I really shouldn’t have spent what I did.

But here’s how I see it. I wanna be in a new car, or slightly used car by the end of winter.

There’s no point in me buying a turbo kit, or rims, or something along that line, for a specific car (jetta), when I’m not going to be driving it in 2 months.

If my lug pattern was 5x100 or something universal 5 lug, I woulda had rims a while ago…but the fact that none of my new car ideas are 4 lug…why buy $1k+ rims?

Atleast with the money I spent, I can take the DVD player out, when I trade the jetta in, and then proceed to put it into the new car. Believe me, it crossed my mind to buy rims, or a turbo kit.

So in actuality… buying a $1k plus stereo thats pimp and the ladies love (oh god i sound like mordak) and being able to swap into the new car \>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\> turboing a 10 year old car, and running into all sorts of problems and downtime, to only get rid of it in 2 months.
