I edited my last post with my brainstorm idea.

truemagellen 12-27-2005 10:28 AM

yes it is possible to put a start button there...only worry about an accidental crank sequence while turning...although you could have a shield for the button that you flip up to prevent accidental firing :)

I am just looking for an original idea. I am going to check out radio shack today to look at switches. Definitely not going to do this on my own. I may wait till I get up North to get a helping hand. I can trouble shoot electronic /computer systems on a ship but I am car dumb.

the next truly DIY project I'm going to work on and Ted is interested to is motorizing the rear windows

using the rear side window motors on a Dodge Caravan :)

Hmmm.. I need dinner.. I think I'm going to Sawatdee (in Bloomington). Usually where I go.

truemagellen 12-27-2005 08:50 PM

have you ever been to Bangkok Thai in Dinkytown, at the base of the Chatuea?

it used to be amazing a couple years ago but they changed chefs and it was ok but then changed chefs again

another great place that is open really late until 2am but not thai is Hong Kong Noodle and of course Quang's (vietnamese), yum

then of course there is Dragon Jade for chinese (my girlfriend's family's restraunt :))

Speedrx8er 12-27-2005 09:02 PM

Bangkok? hehehe arggggggggggggggggggg no good
I love Hong Kong Noodle!!!!!!!
Quang is also GREAT!!!
Dragon Jade hmmm don't think I eaten there..

BoosTED 12-28-2005 03:12 AM

That week is crazy busy but I will do what I can to make it.

Need a quick opinion: when I get the MS kit painted should I paint the rear bumper solid Sunlight Silver or Sunlight with the gun metal on the under spoiler?

BoosTED 12-28-2005 03:03 PM

I say full sunlight.

lets photoshop it pronto :) as I agree full sunlight would look nice but it may get dingged up really badly

I missed my 8 so much I started it up and sat in it tonight for like 20 minutes. My wife thinks I'm nuts.

Then called up the insurance company and put full coverage back on it. Think I'll have to drive it for at least a week or so or I'm going to go nuts.

truemagellen 12-28-2005 09:56 PM

haha that is great...you could have just asked me :)

btw don't you still have the winter rims/tires and could be good to go?

alcimedes 12-28-2005 09:59 PM

Yeah, I'm driving it to work tomorrow. he he he.

Glad I didn't sell the rims/tires.

edit: oh yeah, that reminds me. if any of you get the MS exhaust let me know. I'd like to hear it before I decide for sure whether to get one or not.

truemagellen 12-28-2005 10:18 PM

the new MS exhaust?

Mike already has the current MS exhaust

alcimedes 12-28-2005 10:35 PM

How does it sound? Good?

Speedrx8er 12-28-2005 10:42 PM

I just can't win. Another guy on my ship bought a silver 04 AT 8. That was bad enough that he bought a car that mirrored mine. Now that I bought the MS kit. He did as well. I am going to get a winshield decal for his that says "POSER."
