All I can say is all my posts were intended to be informative.......I am not looking to p*ss anyone off or go for anyone's throat.
Only sharing what I have learned by reading CF and a lot of Trial and Error ,and a bit of blood.
jdmvette is the Lighting Yoda on GF and I have learned volumes from his experience.
radioflyer and I just happened to be attempting HID retrofits at the same time, so we shared a lot of our experiences on CF for others to read. I learned a lot from his project.

But when someone decides to call me names and label what I have done to my vette as dangerous and rice.......I don't take it well.....most wouldn't I think. We still live in a country that allows freedom of expression and individuals to make their own choices with their personal property. I have seen many things in the last 57 years that others have done that I didn't personally care for, but I don't call them names or harass them for their choices.

I will let my past posts speak for themselves........I am done with this thread and apologize to vettegator005 if I contributed to his post going wild


Merry Christmas All..........opps, can we still say that ?

God, I hope not. I have thrown in a different point of view on several threads myself and have learned a ton from the free flow of thoughts and ideas. I just hate to see members at each other's throats. There is a difference between disagreeing with an opinion and attacking someone for their opinion...don't you agree?

P.S. my earlier comment was not directed towards anyone in particular but rather the sour tone some threads have been going lately. To be honest I don't even remember who was at who's throat.

The objective of this community is the exchange of information, ideas trades and purchases. Everyone is entitled to their opinion yes and they all vary to some degree, however expressing one's opinion in an objective and concise manner is what sets us apart from elementary school kids in a lunchroom food fight. Everyone has their own tastes and it's unlikely aggressive overtones will change them.

hey guy did you get this done, or you are an after market maker yourself. I've seen something very similar on a vette, and ever since then I've been searching for them. It changes the look on the vette, and it competes with all the other new European cars like BMW and others.
