Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

I've got michelin defenders on there now, which are much better. But it still doesn't play well in the snow.

I have defenders on my gp, since last fall and I don't fear any amount of snow lol

Anyone know of another hole in the firewall except the one where the throttle wire runs?

you can always just drill a new hole in a clear area inside and out side. take vac line, cut it length wise and use as a grommet

Well....looks like there will me another hole....

If that's a wood holesaw there wont be any teeth left when you are done.

I'm okay with that. The metal is thin

we used something like that on a plastic bumper to cut out the fog light holes in a 1999 durango. funny thing was it had the wiring for it

A lot of cars are factory wired for fogs, even if the car isn't optioned for them. My Stealth did not have factory fogs, but not only had the factory wiring in the lower bumper but had the factory wiring for the switch in the dash.

I literally plugged in fogs, removed the dummy switch and plugged in a factory switch and had working fogs.

the durango had them from the factory it was optioned with them the SLT plus model

they do sell 1/4 and 1/2 inch holes, or just use a normal drill bit to make the hole.

that thing is huge and could cause air to flow in the car. hot and cold air loss.

I already got the hot/cold air problem taken care of. I have a rubber grommet that is the size of the 2 inch hole and it fills the hole in so I just push the wired through the grommet

nice, extra room for more stuff later on.

That was honestly my thinking when I decided to make a hole this size

If it's a Bi-Metal holesaw, it should be okay. I've drilled dozens of holes through sheet metal with a 2-3/8" saw. The mistake most people make is spinning them WAY to fast. You should be almost able to make out the lettering on the saw as it spins. Takes longer, but you end up with a cleaner hole and an un-burnt holesaw.

Brakes last night




Strut tower bars.



One busted knuckle



And FedEx came today

About damn time

Went to a car show after work and saw a sport red metallic 04 grand prix with the inferno package. Base model with stock rims
