Your B5 is lookin' pretty snazzy there!

Where did you find those clear headlights for so cheap?

Thanks!
Audizine, I was lucky enough to see them about 5 minutes after they were posted for $100. I quickly sent the guy a pm and offered him $80 (I would have payed the $100 if he said no) and he accepted. I'm guessing he found them at a junkyard and didn't know what they were worth

Went to test my lights this morning and when I turn on them on both the turn signal Icons come on solid and my signal lights come on solid. I'm confused how this could happen since they were plug and play, I simply changed the turn signal bulb

Mad cow helped me out on that problem, turns out I was using single filment bulbs and I needed dual.

Today I finally got to test out my car since the icm delete with 2.0tfsi coils. I did about a 10-60 full WOT run without any misfiring...at all. It felt so good, I finally have my mbc set correctly so I don't spike boost and it ran like I always wished it would.

2.0TFSI coils are off current vw/Audis. You have to get height as well as plug adapters, 034 sells a kit (which I have). It deletes the icm and replaced the stock coils which is prone to failure and misfiring. Plus 2.0t coils are ~$20 while stock aeb coils sell for ~$60+ each.
