TheLoyale Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I can't say but i figure it might be hard to see it? I was thinking that too, but I figure if its night (Which it should be lol) there might be a deep blue glow or something. Anything has to be better then nothing :-p I really never knew the hazard button had a light in it (Wow!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL yah it has one.. also the AC button switch does as too.. but the dealer says it's not a replaceable light.. but if you take it out and look it's nothing but a twist lock like the air controls.. mine has not blown out yet which is rare.. but at least I know I can change it now..

TheLoyale Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Yeah the only lights that work on my Air controls are the Amber lights above each setting, thats it Lol! I thought that was kinda dumb if thats how it was factory :-p Yeah I took theControl unit apart, there are like 4 twist bulbs from what I can see.

Suba_GL_87 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 wonder if can fit on EA82? or just alittle bigger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quidam Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I was back at the drill press today, my friend jeff walked in, and I heard him say, "Isn't something missing over here?". The EA-82 block will find it's way in there ASAP, for a trial/test fit. I need studs and serated flange nuts to finish bolting the intake on. And some other stuff.

Tom, I ordered some extra "cool whites" for you as well when I ordered mine, just in case you change your mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quidam Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) My friend Trent sold me some 60 spoke, 6 lug, 13"X7" chrome rims cheap a while back. He had to junk the Nissan pickup, it just about rusted in half. Anyway. I've spent a bit of time with one wheel today on the drill press...and grinder. I'm going to do a test fit in the AM and see what/if I need to do anything else. I ground a 4X140 EA-82 hub down to fit the wheel from either side. I'm going to have to take a picture. Doug "MADE IN USA 13 x 7 JB DOT INTERC 05 18 1996" Backside. It's sitting as is. More grinding needed, possibly an aluminum spacer/insert, test fit. Cost: $10.00 plus labor so far.

Quidam Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) I took these today, Next is a test fit on a car. This is the hub I said was ground down...take that center cap off, insert the hub I ground into the front of that wheel... "PLAN? i AIN'T GOT NO PLAN." Something like these will work.

1-3-2-4 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Got a replacement grill yesterday for my outback but I cracked the subaru logo that sticks in the middle trying to remove it ($35 dealer part ) Anyways This is what I did.. I painted it flat black and giving it a glossy clear I'm about to check how it will look on the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricearu Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 "JDM"'d my tail lights. yeah its a direct bite from 1982gl4 but it looks better dangit! and I still managed to chip one. the second came out good. i just used the heat gun longer and let the heat soak into the glue more. (about 3x5minute heat sessions with about 2 minutes in between for the heat to dissipate away from the lens, then pry the little tabs on top and bottom and pull. BTW that friggen plastic gets HOT! Also had to go get my brother's wrx. a while back the drain plug fell out of the transmission... needless to say a new drain plug didn't COMPLETELY fix it. Passenger front diff bearing is gone and took the seal with it. Out she comes again... :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I might have an extra one I can mail you.

Ricearu Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 that could definately cause some oil leaks from blown out seals. hate to see the pcv valve itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLoyale Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I do not have one, I have a larger style one which is from a "Baja" its a little bigger then the other one. If you want a proper one, I might be getting out to a junkyard sometime in the coming week. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
