    Let's talk air horns....

    I pulled and installed a set of horns from an 80's Cadillac. Nice fat station-wagon tone!

    89+ Clear turn signals not avaialble anymore???

    Sell me yours and paint your stock set with VHT nightshades :). That would give you the look you want and still function properly.

    89+ Clear turn signals not avaialble anymore???

    I've tried HPF and MVP and they say that they can't get the clear turn signals for the 89-92. Anyone know of a place that has these in stock right now?? I really need to complete my car for paint. Thanks - B

    Differentials explained(Torsen, LSD, etc): Old article, but a good one!

    Mk4 diffs are Torsen. Depends on how beefy they are built.

    The best HID low-profile (sleepy) headlight mod for under $500

    I think you're overreacting in this instance Keith. The output of these are better than stock and the glare is, in my opinion, equal to many of the high-end cars that I get glare from as I drive by(Porsche, Mercedes). The beam pattern is very focused and aimed at the road, not at other drivers...

    The best HID low-profile (sleepy) headlight mod for under $500

    You rock CJ, looking more closely I can see that the low beam bulb has an "L" on the front and the high beam has a "U". The low beam bulb has extra beam shaping/diffusing surfaces in the glass lens. To my surprise, it is this lens that is causing the dimmer, poorly shaped beam pattern with...

    The best HID low-profile (sleepy) headlight mod for under $500

    I was a bit worried about the glare, but after watching a couple of Mercedes and Porsches drive by, they had just as much glare in my opinion. After a few hours of night driving, I haven't had one person flash his high beams at me so I don't think they are too blinding to other drivers. The...

    The best HID low-profile (sleepy) headlight mod for under $500

    Thanks for the info Cj! Maybe now I can figure out which one is which. There definately is a difference in the beams, the left one is a fair bit brighter than the right. Here's some night shots for comparison: First photo: Stock low beams on my Mk2 (same bulbs as a stock Mk3): Stock hi...

    The best HID low-profile (sleepy) headlight mod for under $500

    If I had lots of spare time and money I'd do it to my Mk2 also. It might even suit the edgier body style better.

    How to fit a 6.5" door speaker????

    Thanks for the info. Which model are your Rockford speakers? Just wondering about the depth which will probably be the issue with a pair of MB Quarts.

    How to fit a 6.5" door speaker????

    Does the 91+ door panel offer a bit more frontal clearance? Perhaps I could space it out a bit to clear the depth of the magnet. I may me able to pick up an old set of high-end MB Quart 6.5" which are quite beefy and deep.

    The best HID low-profile (sleepy) headlight mod for under $500

    I thought so too! It really transforms the look of the car. It reminds me of a high-end exotic sports car or BMW somehow...
