well there are 2 different ways to do it... u can do it like i did and go down to pepboys and buy two led lights for 10 bucks each and put them in and be done

or u can go through ecs and order the ziza kit for like 50 plus shipping and that is supposedly better... but mine work jsut fine and no warning indicator lights are on either lol

Street racing is so cool man I'm jealous I can't be more like you!

You're absolutely right on that. For B5's, the Ziza lights on ECS are a waste of money. They have a resistor built into them to prevent the bulb out warning (since LED's draw less current). Since resistors produce heat, they slapped a heat sink on the back of them. Problem is, B5's don't have bulb out warnings for license plate lights lol. So like you mentioned above, you can use the cheap LED lights and you'll be fine. From what I've read, Audi didn't start wiring up the license plate lights to throw bulb out warnings until at least the B6 or B7 platforms.

If none of you try and race a little honda that revs his engine at you cause he thinks hes faster than any car?
And you have all these builds and big turbos, whats the point of having them unless you hit the track?

I apologize for posting that.
It was the first time i ever raced my car.
i must not have read the rules well enough.

I'd lose in my automatic 2.8. Personally I think being the bigger man and driving off slowly like you don't notice, is a lot cooler than putting him in his place. Or just look at him and roll your eyes. Or roll your windows down and blast this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOphGZZrE44

Either way, you end up becoming the man immediately.

Edit: I think I'm going to go take my roof rack off soon.
