Installation Required

I am in Brampton.

I am looking to see if there is a shop or a Member in the area that has a good rep that can do the collow installtions for me:

1. Springs

2. Projector Lights

3. Tail Lights.

Any help would be appreciated. Quick question as well, with the projectors, what bulb size will i need. Stock are H4 on a 2002 Sedan. I have heard that there are size issues on the projectors. What is the diff between H1 and H4, size only ...?

If you're willing to drive down to London I can help you with all of the above. Headlights and taillights are easy... I can do that anytime but for your springs, I'd rather wait till it gets warmer... I really don't wanna sit outside for 2 hours installing these in this weather. btw I work for beer/pizza

Also for your projectors... you'll need the H1's. They're a different style bulb all together.. ie. size,style,base...

Thanks,

I will let you know when I am ready. I have yet to buy these items. The spring install makes me a lil nervous... have you done them before sometimes it is better for a shop to do it. I am not putting you down, just trying to find out how many of these u have done. And Beer and pizza is fine !!! BTW will the H1 bulbs fit into the stock H4 socket or is a mod required?

Awesome. I dont need them done in 45 min, he can take his time, as long as he does a good safe job (gotta drive back from London to Brampton) then I am sure we can work something out.

If you need the tails done and you dont feel like driving to London, pm me and I'll do them for you. Takes about 5 mins and I'm located in the Scarborough Markham area.

We rented one from Crappy Tire... all you need to do is leave a deposit and it's free.
Btw... I only needed the spring compressor to install my stock springs. With two people, you guys should be able to put on any set of aftermarket springs without a compressor.

How the heck do you get the bolts off the strut towers? Mine are all corroded and stuff from the winter.

Can you rent an impact gun from Canadian Tire?

If you rent an impact gun, you'd also need a compressor and tank. Go to crappy tire and buy some Liquid Wrench... that **** works awesome.... then try to loosen the bolts up.
