You don't have to slam to look good just get rid of the wheel gap.

ordered a new engine speed sensor off ecs at 930am, sprung for the next day air so i can (hopefully) get my car running again, only to find out at 330 this afternoon that "in stock" doesnt really mean in stock. awesome.

I installed red LED's in the inside door handles. I also installed Bluetooth hands-free calling, A2DP streaming, and and AUX input with the original Symphony I HU. Here are some pics.

Any pictures of the installation of the LEDs? I've thought about doing this. Did you just tap into the window switch for the light? Did you just use regular 5mm LEDs or a surface mount? I was worried that it might turn out spotty since many have such a narrow spread.

Sorry, I did not take pics. I bought some 12 volt flat topped LED's from radio shack (about $2 each) that way I did not have to deal with adjusting the current any. I drilled a little hole and pushed the LED through.

I did tap into the power windows for the power source. They are lit up whenever the windows switch lights are lit up. IE while you are driving until you pull out the key and open the door.

I wish I had better pics. The red light matches the dash lights perfectly.
