today I figured out the glowing led beside the dimmer switch is from an aftermarket remote starter/security system. maybe that's what's behind the clutch switch circuit fault? I'd rip it out but there's about 20 wires going to it...

The roof rack totally says the car is more than just a good looker. I dig that utilitarian look.

...today I bought a squeege haha
having early morning classes and living by the beach all my windows are covered in condensation in the mornings. and Im tired of taking napkins to it. I dont know if its something I should be worried about, but when I roll the windows down the weather stripping doesnt get rid of it so its not making contact when I roll the windows down. does anyone else notice this? It appears to make have contact when its rolled up.
Found out I may get to put in a remote starter my mom had it taken out of her car because she kept getting locked out to the point of having it towed to bestbuy to take it out, the tech was actually the one that installed it a year ago and he said the system itself is fine, I think the remote just needs replaced so hopefully over break I can just put down the money for a new remote $150.00 but cheaper then buying the whole system.

installed springs...go ahead and flame b/c i installed msp springs w/ stock struts and have a saggy butt. but i'm a poor college kid and it only cost me 50 bux. o yea and ignore the dirt on the side, it rained the other day and haven't had a chance to wash it
on the upside, i took it for a spin down a winding road and i notice a difference, so i'll deal w/ the .5 in lower in the back
