a vin swap would be easyer than all that ---- :)

heres an update...

on tuesday, i couldnt get much work done on the car. why? beacuse fpl decided that the utility pole infront of my house (and right under my car) needed to be replaced, it was damaged by hurrican wilma. i was pissed, but the power crew (came all the way from michigan) changing it was pretty funny. plus when they put the street light back up, they angled it so that its over my house so i can work at night [:)]

so far all is well, everything fits back into place really good.. i have to swap a few wires such as the rear turn signals and for some reason my 3rd brake light isnt working... does any one know if jdm cars have a 3rd brake light?

as for the engine harness, i have a local lead one, im waiting to hear back from the guy, if not im just going to dissasemble mine and stretch the needed wires.

Most people would have lost heart and not gotten half as far as you have.

---- me that's nuts. JDM at heart i guess. If you have a spoiler with a brake light, then you should shave off the 3rd brake light on your rear deck, otherwise tap into the others.
