Congrats
In order to post pics, you have to have an online hosting site. I use cardomain.com because they are free. Once you upload your pics to a host site, you just pull the properties of the pic straight off the web and paste the http address between image tags... IE:

[img]<insert web properties here>[/img]
and voila... you have a pic

Ok,
ran into my first glitch with my new toy. The interior lights wont shut off without me pulling the fuse. Would a door switch or the back hatch be a culprit? Is the dimmer switch bad? It still works the dashlights fine.

Ugh.

If yours is any thing like my 89 the interior lights are on a timer and turn off in a short period after you close the doors!
Congrats on the new car

Also make sure the doors are completely closed if not the light will stay on
My son left the passenger door that way and it killed my battery
