So I finally got to replacing the rear differential fluid this past weekend...Easier than I thought, but man what an awkward angle to pour that fluid in. Anyhow I know this is going to sound dumb but if I have a 2X4 would I only have a rear differential or would I still have a front differential too ...

Can you tell me which way the bulb faces when in the housing? I plan on getting some LED replacements, but what to know which kind to get. I don't think that I can do your mod, since I know next to nothing about 12 volts.

I mounted them in a way where they face down. Otherwise they would have ...

I'm actually going to be retrofitting LEDs in my license plate lights today and it requires me to remove the back panel. If you want I can take some pics of the process so you can see how to remove it. Let me know.

I have an 06 LE with the ugly faux-wood center trim. I'm thinking about replacing it to match the color of the dash. From what I can tell, it's just two parts (96960 & 96940). Does anyone know how hard it is to remove and replace?

Here is my take on the above ride...

What I like:

Your wheels are very nice, I like the style of them. Your taillights appear to work well with your color Pathy. I would like to see a rear pic of them in action to see the led pattern. Your shaved emblems and shaved roof rack are nice touches too ...

Just as an update...

I just got off the phone with my local dealer about this recall. It seems even the new parts they are using to replace the defective units are not solving the issue. A hold was placed until they can figure out how to get this resolved.

I got an 06 used about 4 months ago. To me the slight changes in the 08's and up were so minimal that it didn't matter to me. I'm loving the pathy so far, and you will too if your in a PT Cruiser right now ( I HATE THAT CAR TOO!).

One suggestion though if you go used, go for the LE trim. I ended up ...

Yeah, but the stock beams are maybe the worst of any vehicle I've had. They are not terrible imo.

Does the hi/low kit do high and low beams properly?

Not sure as I have not used DDM personally. I just know they come highly recommended by several people on different forums.

If the beam pattern ...

i put in a 6000K kit 9007 bulbs, and it didnt really make a difference.

the light is stronger, but is scattering everywhere. doesnt really help in seeing ahead much as its useful for flashing the honda in front of you doing 40 on the highway.

That's because the stock housings were not meant to ...

Sucks to hear man...If I caught this thread before you bought them I would have recommended DDM Tuning. Similar price but with a lifetime warranty and I know a lot of people who have tried them and were very pleased.

As for Color temps, anything north of 6000k is a waste imo. Ideally 5000k is what ...
