    Welp... progress is now stagnant thanks to the warmer weather allowing me to have fun with my A4. The LED conversion with that car was a trip to say the least.

    My Expedition Modifications and Write-Ups

    Since I ordered an overload of red 194 bulbs for my A4, I decided to tackle the third brake. Removal is pretty basic... pull the two screws and yank. To do this swap, you'll have to pull the washer line off the housing and disconnect the light harness. These are the bulbs I used...

    My Expedition Modifications and Write-Ups

    I finally got the replacement parts in for my mirrors. The bulbs came in quick sometime last week and the new mirror cap and bulb housing came in yesterday. The puddle lamp bulb is not designed to be replaced. The clear cap is sealed to the housing. With some effort you can get them apart and...

    Mirror (Dis)Assembly

    I'd like to get my mirrors apart and get the amber turn signal cover off or out if possible. My goal is to be able to tint that amber section to help blend it with the mirror better. Anyone got a guide or can tell me how to get that out? Thanks!

    Here ya go everyone! LED interior and license plate lights are done... waiting on the new puddle lamp bulbs to come in. The cargo area bulb is definitely a bit more blue (closer to 6000K) than the other bulbs are but its not that noticeable since the only place that bulb goes is in the rear...

    I should have looked at bulb orientation in the housings before I started ordering. Some of them won't fit the way I thought they would. I'll have pics up and links to the eBay pages once they get here and I get them in. EDIT: I started my bulb conversion last night but was too pissed to take...

    Which Flowmaster Exhaust 40 or 50 series

    10s have VERY little back pressure. If running dual 40s is going to be an issue according to your shop, I wouldn't be comfortable with them telling me to run a 10.

    My Expedition Modifications and Write-Ups

    I just ordered what should hopefully be all the LEDs needed to convert all of the interior lighting as well as the license plate lights and the puddle lamps on eBay. Total investment into the project so far is like $27. If this goes well and when funds permit my projector retrofit, I'll also be...

    PM Replied. Make sure you take notes and pictures. I'm trying to give JL as much information on these trucks as possible.

    Speaker upgrade subwoofer for 2003 Gen 2

    Here is the picture of the plug on the amp. My harness for the amp was taped up and run along with the harness going to the C pillar. If you have it, you probably won't know for sure until you pull the radio or the rear panels. In my experience, if the vehicle wasn't optioned with something...

    They are just chillin' in the attic. Didn't like them to begin with so they are staying off. The dip definitely won't hold up to the foot traffic. I had my whole back bumper dipped and it held up to me climbing in and out of the back for a couple weeks but I ended up peeling it off the step section.

    My Expedition Modifications and Write-Ups

    I think the last time I did it, going rate on a can was like 6.50 and I think I used 8 or 9. Well worth it to be able to peel it off if you don't like it. I'm going to invest in a sprayer system and buying gallons of it this summer so I can do full car dips and hopefully get better adhesion on...

    Speaker upgrade subwoofer for 2003 Gen 2

    I'll take a picture of the plug on the amp tomorrow. The two problems that I see just looking at your pictures are that it does not appear that you have the factory mounting studs and the tray that you have the tape measure next to needs to be replaced with the shallower version.

    Keep an eye on JLs website. This is about the time of the year when they run 10% off and free shipping. Just remember that the only way to get a warranty with one of these is to purchase it from an authorized dealer... there are none on amazon or ebay and sonic electronix is also not authorized.

    This is what I ended up doing for a grille. I never liked the idea of that square grille for mine to begin with... thought it looked cheesy. Mine is made up of a JL 10" trim ring with a grille mounted in it. You can buy the grille separately but the trim ring you have to get from a local...

    I'm almost positive that it will. The only thing I think is different is that some of the second gens came with round grilles instead of the square ones? Dunno if this is true or not.
