Well, I try not to mess with electrical stuff to much. I can do it and it might take a few tries, but it would be easier to pay someone to do it right the first time.
Luckily, that probably doesn't involve getting into the trunk, so you can leave the bodies where they are......

Can Darwin also hardwire my V1? Please ask him if he can re-install my AIBs and hardwire my V1. Thanks.
Darwin can definitely do your hardwire. He said $30 for hardwiring and $50 for the AIBs.

What about getting their HID fog upgrade? I believe it's $280 for the kit and $40-$50 for installation but he said if you do the fogs with the AIBs, he won't charge labor on the AIBs. I've asked him to jump on this thread to add any input.

Looks like my trip to Norcal will be for mods and not the Meet or drive.

I'll have to contemplate about the HID fogs...

I'm planning on getting them installed this week. Also trying to see what else I can do to my car by the time this Meet rolls around...

You're so lucky to be in the middle of California! You get to attend both the Socal and Norcal Meets.

I agree with your suggestion that we should have a central Cali meet one day so that both the Socal and Norcal folks can all meet. If so, you would have to be the driving force behind the Meet. I'll just show up with my dead bodies in the trunk.

CarLab can reinstall your AIBs. What else are you considering doing?

Actually, if we do decide to hit up CarLab and if anyone wants to get something done, let me know so I can schedule it with Darwin. It'll probably have to be small, easy stuff unless you want to spend the whole day there.
Hey, that's a good idea, EuroCarFan!
Maybe you can post what sort of "easy stuff" CarLabs can do that day for us. I still have the stock Angel eyes and foglights. Would be nice to get the bright stuff. Does this qualify?
