Beyond that try speedworks in lewisville.

If you were in Houston, we would probably throw it on there for nothing. It would be more difficult to do the paperwork and receipts for that than the actual job. :)
Good LUck,

Heck, get the part you want and I'll put it in for you free. Or we can put a resistor in the connector and be done with it. The longest part will be the drive down to my house in Granbury.

E-mail me if you want to set something up.

Have a good one,
Mike

Roddog -- I live in Las Colinas and I'd be happy to help you with it. It's a 10 minute job, where 8 of those minutes is getting the car off the ground. Heck, it might even be possible with 2 tires on a curb and 2 on the street, in which case that part also would be a few minutes. I did mine by backing my car onto a pair of ramps, which looks scary when doing it but was no big deal. Send me an e-mail if you're interested. :cheers:

Hi,

Stop by LG Motorsports, and we will install it for NO CHARGE.

Can't do better than that.

Just show a copy of this post to the salesman, and they will help you out. If I am here when you come in, I will see you then.
There are directions on my web site.

Thanks,

Lou Gigliotti http://www.LG Motorsports.com 972-272-7753
