| That looks a little on the tight side. But hard to say if its been installed for a while like that. The boat roller will actually compress and stay that compressed height. I've seen one that was smashed to 3" and stayed like that. It just had to be tight enough to take out the slop. You can loo... |

Jazzy,
I just updated the original post explaining the extra washer with some pictures. I measured the subframe opening as exactly 2" depth. |

| I still have two of your mounts I never put in. I plan to put one in this week. Should I add an extra washer? Is it needed? The washer is a really good idea. It will make the bushing last longer. If you don't have one handy, you could use the washer that goes on top of the bracket as that isn't as ... |

| Jazzy, Can you post some pictures of your install? Did you have the bottom bushing in place? There should only be about an inch of exposed threads out the top after it is tightened down properly. The only change that I've made since this picture is adding a washer between the swaybar bushing and the... |

| The main housing reflector? Or the small bulb cover? I'd guess without the main reflector light output would be as good as a candle. Removing the bulb cover would probably do nothing noticeable as far as light output. |

The one in the block is a stud with a 15mm nut. I don't know the thread pitch off hand, but I have piles of them if you need one.
I also have those rear trans mount bolts, there are 3. PM me or email andrew.suderman@gmail.com |

| That sucks, a lot. I do sell the ribbon harness, but you have to remove the entire dash to access it. If you have clear access, I would definitely try to solder it back together, nothing really to lose.

| No thermal paste, it's not even used as a ground. It is just a mounting plate. To the amount of R&D you'd go through to get a coil on plug I see no benefit. The ignition system on these cars does have its quirks, but overall they are very reliable and easy to diagnose even without fancy tools. Y... |

I saw the title of this thread and immediately knew it was going to be the stalk switch. I see this often, we are so accustomed to auto headlights that if someone happens to touch that switch we are completely thrown off.  |

| You've said the difference of the hoses, but not their actual temperature. They should around the same temp as your engine coolant temp of 195°, therefore you shouldn't be able to hold onto them. The dash temp will read 200° even if the car is within 180-220°, it's a dummy gauge. If you're hoses are... |

You simply need to add a power source to that memory module. The memory won't work, but the but module needs power to be able to power the rest of the seat.
You will obviously have power at the large orange A4 wire, but make sure you have power going to A9 and B5. |

| You need to use metal barbed fittings or it will probably leak. Dorman makes repair kits for this, just stop into your local parts store. You will spill minimal fuel, it could easily be contained in a towel under the repair area. |
