The cardboard (for lack of a better term) panel piece that hides the wiring and relays below my glove box has a tear in the spot where it mounts. Has anyone devised a solution for this? It seems to be a common issue since all of the D1's at the boneyard have had worse looking panels than my...

Thanks for the replies! I have a set on the way from disco_drum.

Does anyone have a source for the inserts that fit inside the cup holders that mount on the sides of the transmission tunnel? I bought a set (top 2 pieces) from the boneyard and the smaller insert pieces were missing. I'm looking for the inserts in the bottom part of the photo. I've mounted...

My ol' rig with 279k averages 15.5-16mpg on 85 octane with 235/70R-16 Vredestein Pinza AT's. terryjm, those upgraded injectors are now up to $199 for the set.

I installed the Double S cat back and it's luckily as quiet as the stock setup. It seems to be high quality stainless steel, so I'll hopefully never have replace it again. Those rubber muffler hangers are a royal pain to install!

Got it put back together and I'm back on the road. It's much tighter and a lot quieter now without that rattling from the loose upper ball joint.

I just ordered a set. Thanks for posting this. I've replaced the tie-rod ends and I'm in the process of replacing all the bushings, so this will come in handy.

All done for a $100 and a bottle of Eagle Rare. I also forged a new relationship with an incredible group of people. I'm glad I stopped in there yesterday. They said it took 26 tons of pressure to get the old bushings out. Sheesh!

I tried the neighbor's 20 ton press and the bushings didn't move. The top brace above the bottle jack was arching upward so I gave up. A couple of local shops turned me away, so on a lark I dropped by a local Ferrari restoration place and, after my pleading, they said they'd do it for me for...

After much hammerin' and cussin' and more hammerin' and a lot more cussin', I finally got the fulcrum bolts out of the fulcrum. They were rusted inside the fulcrum body. Now to remove and replace those bushings in the arms...

I finally got the A frame wishbone removed, but I need tips on removing the fulcrum from the arms. I 've researched and it looks like I have to sawzall the bolts and use punches to hammer the remaining bits out. I bought a high articulation replacement already fitted into the mounting fulcrum...

Any suggestions on the sealant? Maybe this? Permatex 81878 Ultra Copper Maximum Temperature RTV Silicone Gasket Maker

AB ran a sale on the Double S stainless steel cat back so I decided to try it out. The way they shipped it was a little disconcerting (no packaging), but everything seems to be in great shape. The construction is very robust and seems to weigh quite a bit more than the Brit Part exhaust it's...

I use Cotton Picker Spindle Grease from Tractor Supply. Seems to work well and it's cheap and easy to procure. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/super-s-cotton-picker-spindle-grease-00

The STC4104 is only $8 at AB and it includes the washer and o-ring. https://www.roverparts.com/electrical/switches-actuators-solenoids/STC4104/

I had my headliner replaced in Florida by Headliner Express just prior to moving out to CO. I updated the look with black headliner material, but they also sell tan. I also had the headliner replaced in our 2004 Mini Cooper S. Both still look great after approximately 8 years. They sell...

I don't have experience with MSD's. I've been running 8mm STI's for four years with no issues. They're only around $30 a set.

I have stock D1 headlight housings with Philips X-treme Vision bulbs and they're pretty darn good at lighting up the road. The headlights were extremely out of adjustment when I purchased the truck. There was a dramatic improvement with the adjustment and upgraded bulbs. That said, I have no...

Make sure the contact points are clean and the bulbs aren't blown. Those bulb holders get old and cracked and may not be making a good connection. Also, could be wiring. I replaced the bumper lamps and front side corner lamps with new assemblies recently. My old ones had cracks and the...

I'll take these. Mine are really oxidized and these look great. I can Venmo you for shipping.
