A few months ago, some bitch in a 3rd gen maxima backed into me as my car was already out of the parking spot.




I bought ONE SER tail light. Yes, one tail light only. I'm reviving a ricer trend, Mismatched tails. I'll see how it is for a while. I'll pick up a driver side tail light eventually.





Pardon the salt. Didn't get a chance to wash the car. It was too late in the day and it's a little cold for one. I'll bathe her ASAP tomorrow morning.

I replaced my slowly dying battery and finished the Active Tuning LED mirror install.

Had to zip tie the driver side oe low beam connector with the hid ballast. It's probably the cold weather but I had to keep pressing the two tightly to get the HID to ignite.




Will the wires be severed by the zip tie eventually?

I don't know if I'd worry about severing so much as damaging the wire itself, similar to a headphone wire that's been put through too much stress. I don't know how often people normally damage their headphones, but it's the only reference I could think of. I don't know that I have a better solution though. How tightly do they have to be squeezed together? Is it possible to squeeze the connectors together and wrap the juncture in electrical tape?

That actually sounds like a good idea. The catch is that it needs a hard press. It's been working fine since. I'm just worried about resodering the oe side of the connectors. The ballast side can always be easily replaced.

The zip tie should not damage the wire. If it works leave it and check on it periodically...

It does. Flywheel hp (same hp Nissan rates). The car went 102 mph in the quarter mile. That's 300 Horsepower or more by most calculators.
Thanks for the compliment on the ad. Hope it sells.
