then maybe some relays for headlight and ign, and then maybe............. :unknown:

If you do the HID headlight mod (for like $45) then you won't need headlight relays.

+1 on the HID, very happy with it after ridding home after Klavdy's execution of a helpless pine cone. It was pitch black in the mountains and my old 86' era head lamp would have really sucked. Each car that I gained on pulled over, I am guessing from the blinding spot in their mirrors. Chose something between 4000 kelvin and 5000, very white color, like sunlight.

Plug and play MOD, you can still switch back to the stock by moving the plug over, no cut wires. 
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

'86 Ambulance - Bent frame, cracked case, due for an overhaul
'89 Stormy Blue - Suits my Dark Side

the final tally is in .

After receiving my good driver award from the highway patrol.

the cost of the corbin seat is as follows.

Used corbin seat in great condition......150.00
fuel and refreshments........................20.00
toll bridge........................................5.00
speeding ticket................................352.00
traffic school fee...............................56.00
traffic school....................................49.00

total cost.......................................632.00


by comparison a brand new corbin with backrest is under 600.00 shipped to my door. :dash1: :dash1: :dash1: :dash1: :dash1: :dash1:

however , the adventure was priceless. :dance:
