It's ok Cro, I know how you feel. I'm a poor bastard right now, I just bought rims and I'll have to wait to get my tires because I don't have enough money right now. I might just drive there and stand outside the dome. I can always watch JW's video. lol [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

ahhhh come on guys, it cant be that bad. it only cost $25 at the door and $27.50 if you preorder, $2.50 extra, so that you dont have to wait in line. i am sure if you dig in the couch and in your penny jar, you have that much change layin around the house. the more of us 7thgens representin, the better. AEM, i am not going to let you just sit there and look at the outside of the dome all night. i am sure that some of your friends would spot you some cash or something. hahahha.

Yeah, I'll just bum money off of someone. I'm usually the one lending people money, that's why I don't have any!!![IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] lol
Maybe I'll head out to N.O. early in the mornin and stand out in the French Quarter with a cup. I can try tap dancing or something. That way I might have enough to buy my ticket by the end of the day.[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Pearl, you need to get some picks up of your car b/c it sounds like your on your way to a phat a$$ ride

also, would you explain to me how you did your dash lights(like the a/c and that area) and how bright it is(brighter/dimmer/same as factory brightness)?

i WANT to post pics but when comes to my car im friggin ****!! sad really...but i atleast admit i have a prob. I dont want it to look "stock" ya know? so as i tweak it im lettin my southern brethren know what im up to.

np on the dash Luz, ok do u know how to take out ur HU? i followed the DIY on the MEGE DIY THREAD in Tech Stuff forum. I bought blue filter paper, off of partsexpress.com they have bunch diff shades of blue so i ordered em all for like 20 bucks lol anyway. when u get main HU out u flip it over and just undo the screws it says in DIY. When u remove the back u will see the area where a/c ***** and stuff r, u will see there is a white bulb shining through an orange filter paper, or whatever color ur int. lights r thats the color filter paper u will have. Take out that paper and put it on the filter paper u bought, trace it and cut it out (pain in the *** but worth it) then u just put it back in. I will say mine isnt as bright as the original orange BUT its a VERY coool blue color and since ive discovered that a blue sharpie marker is AWESOME!! im repulling mine out and coloring the bulbs.

I colored the bulbs in the dome/map light and put blue filter paper inside as well and it is SICK!! looking, very nice blue there. I think i may have missed stuff Luz, im not sure, im hella tired but i followed that DIY and used the filter paper like i said....$hit i have ALOT of colors left over if u r goin for green/blue look ill give u the paper no prob at all. If u have any probs post or PM me, if it really gets troublesome ill call ya at my exspense amd talk ya through it, ill re rip mine out to help ya....once u do it once its cake...just doin it the 1 time is the pi$$er!

Yeah, it's a b!tch and a half!! Especially when you try to replace the whole bulb. lol It took me two days to switch over to blue LEDs, and that was just the center piece. By the time I finished that I didn't feel like doin the cruise control, sun roof, and other buttons to the left of the steering wheel. I'm gonna have to try that sharpie trick and see how that turns out.

how the hell do u have 2k1civic cross ur screen there???? looks tight as hell. Man the bulbs in the cruise/sunroof etc r to small for the marker to stick.....but my brain is schemeing. i heard how u could install LED's on the HU but heard it was major b*itch, and they even said somethin bout soddering the light in...uhhh no!!

my next days off r tues/weds....gonna use the sharpie and see what else i can color.

Yeah, I didn't want to solder the LEDs in because it's just too messt and I didn't want to mess my A/C controls up. So I modified the factory bulb holders to hold the LED. Lots of work. That's a pioneer head unit. To get 2k1civic on there I just named a cd 2k1civic.

alright, alright, it was tight. lots of fine rides. didnt take long to check everthing out though. me and AEMCIVIC caravaned up there and got some good video of this full size chevy truck draggin is front bumper down the interstate. he was layin frame with his airbags, it was tight. the show was good too. i was a little upset because i went with $250 and wanted to buy a wing, but pep boys was the only vender there. i got some really good video. about 40 minutes long. that is all the batteries would let me do. i didnt film all the cars, just the ones that where really worth it. if you want a video just let me know and i will tell you how much.... all you pay is price of tape and shipping. if you have a blank tape at you house, mail it to me and i will make you a copy and you wont have to pay anything, not even shippin back to you. but if i have to make a special trip to wal mart and buy a tape to copy the show, you better believe that i am going to make you pay shippin cause you didnt caravan with us to the show "CROC" ummm just messin. but let me know if you want a tape. that goes for anyone one here

Well, HIN sucked my left nut!!!!! Nah, they had a few vipers, lamborginis, and some pretty nice cars, but you could tell that no matter what you drove, if you payed the $50 entry fee, they let you in. I guess my expectations were too high. lol They had some crap there. JW was disappointed because they didn't have any big vendors. Just a bunch of APC stuff. The women made up for all the crappy cars. Lots of hot women!! But for those of you that didn't go, you didn't miss that much. I don't think it was worth the 22 bucks. Oh yeah, the roads sucked too!!!!

haha, yeah I hit alot of "low points"!!!! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
I got alot of video, so I think I might try to edit it and get it online. I hope most of you have DSL or Cable.
I can get snapshots from the video, but the quality isn't that good.
As far as the digi cam, just remember, the more pixels, the better. And a good zoom is always a plus.

I wanna know about that Gude package. If it's worth it, I wouldn't mind spending my money on that.

Yeah, I'd be up for a meet in LA, but after finals.
Finals start tomorrow, so this is the last you'll see of me until Monday night.
Peace out
