wut is going on in herz

 

[Yaj Yak]

well that would be cool. I guess it should be easy enough to see what the normal bulb requires and what an LED bulb would require. Then set it up in their coding. Hopefully it works.

played with it real quick last night- just adjusting day time running lights to be the halo's instead of the brights on dim...

I'm going to swap in whatever bulbs are easiest here, code them and see if it gives me any error messages... if it doesn't then im going to swap the headlight & foglight bulbs

 

[Yaj Yak]

so i went to put the shit in i need some adapter bracket bs things.

whaaateva.

 

[Pressure Ratio]

Sounds about right. :/

Headlight conversions are all the same. A pain.

So will you order the adapter or just put a bulb like the SilverStar in it?

 

[Yaj Yak]

the adapter is $4 for two off ebay. i ordered 'em

I washed this the other day

 

[Nay_Sayer]

Nice vehicle.

Am I correct to assume that the BMW straight 6 is a more reliable engine than their V6s and V8?

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

Kay Jayski hitting it with the foamski.

The stuff is such a time and labor saver it isn't even funny. On a car with brake dust issues, like BMW and big brake kit cars, this stuff is worth every penny.

I have the 5 liter bottle on my Amazon subscription. haha But I use the stuff a lot due to how incredible the stuff works. Iron X is the same way with your paint finish. And trust me, you will see a large amount of iron being taken off, in the same manner, with the Sonax does the wheels. As that brake dust gets blow onto the fenders, doors, and rockers as well. You can use Sonax on the paint as well. But it doesn't work as well as the Iron X. But spray some of your Sonax behind the front wheels and I bet you will see it turn to purple as well. Brake dust sucks.

this shit is fucking awesome.

i have seen people post about it on here before but never bought it... but holy fuck, i used it last night and it's game changing. I'm going to buy the big bottle and just refill my mini. this is going to be a weekly thing i've learned sooo might as well be ready for it.

i got the one you linked- but the link is dead now for some reason

i wonder if the oem center caps would fit the wheels i have now.

These wheels will be the death of me. They get SO fucking filthy.

This was after my recent roadtrip... don't even look silver.

I should have bought stock in whatever company makes that wheel shit though.

 

[Yaj Yak]

I got 32.4 mpg across 587 miles on my cruise home on Monday.

Super pumped about that... because most of it was driving at 80/85 mph.

 

[Yaj Yak]

Neat

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

what wheel cleaner did you use ?
car looks sharp man !

 

[Yaj Yak]

Get yourself a couple of different style of wheel brushes, a spray bottle and buy Sonax wheel cleaner. It is expensive but makes cleaning wheels SOOOOO much easier.

this sonax stuff [MENTION=2612]Pressure Ratio[/MENTION] recommended.

got the jug most recently.

BMW brakes are horrible for dust. I need to swap to a ceramic pad to see if it helps much. But that is why I said a good wheel cleaner is worth its weight in gold. Between the brake dust and the design of the wheel, you need something to do much of the work for you. lol

 

[Yaj Yak]

right. it's BRUTAL

i leave the small spray bottle in my trunk and just hit the self wash every weds, rain or shine, and clean 'em up

 

[Yaj Yak]

I love this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E9E76F0/?tag=tcg21-20

It's durable and can be bent/manipulated to hit awkward spaces.

You need to get yourself some BMW center caps for the wheels.

so i finally did this and it totally changed the look of the car/wheels. i love em, thanks for the suggestion.



also replaced my first broken part. yay


i got a lil aggressive with one of those cell phone vent holder dealios and snapped 2 vent fins.

amazon... $26. ficksed it.

 

[Yaj Yak]

i need pics of center caps but here's a pic from last week.
