What do you all want to do?

[Goldie]

so... do we want to plan for a get together sometime soon? and if so, what do you want to do.

I think it makes most sense to meet in Seattle - since that's the most central for everyone.

But since Tad is the only one in Seattle (that I know of), and doesn't have a garage - or much parking (assuming he'd be ok with us there again ) don't know how well a 'mod' meet would go over there until summer weather is here.

Suggestions? what works for time also?

Hey im down for wherever and whenever.I like the idea of a mod meet but I dont know who knows what.Also I'd like to figure out what were gonna do so I could get things 2gether.I think snowboarder....was talking about clear corners which ive wanted to do for a long time.But id like to something soon whatever we decide.So lets get something planned goldie...soon.

[Goldie]

TAD........... since you've torn more cougars apart than there are NECO members in the NW... can you list off your know-hows? (like, how are you with opening headlights?)

[Snowboarder]

haha, I'm down for sometime most likely on a weekend and hopefully closer to April or mid April would be best for me seen as I'm still trying to get my Insurance lump sum of 3500 saved up for mid April and won't have much spare money until I have that much cash in hand! But yah I am preety good with taking headlights apart and from just experiencing my headlights for the past couple weeks since superbowl sunday (when I did my headlights) I haven't had any fogging for sealing them back up yet either! SO that should be easy enough to do! But I'm open to other suggestions seen as that can be a fairly long mod depending on how the plexiglass feels like behaving at teh time haha! But otherthings I know how to do from experience on doing it myself is!
-Full tune ups of everything basic (all filters, spark plugs and wires, oil changes) (not really a mod but incase someone doesn;t know how to do it.... I could help)
-Shaving the letters and side molding off the car (VERY EASY)
-LED light swaps (I still have a bunch of red LED's Left over from my light swap that I still haven;t finished 100%) oh and I know Goldies done some preety sweet stuff pertaining to the gauges with leds and stuff like that that I might be intrested in
-Clear Corners on headlights!
-Short shifter installs (If someone wanted to buy one and have it installed they're easy enough to do)
Theres some other stuff too but those are the easy 1's that I know how to tackle and know could be done in a days meet! I know they're preety basic but w/e maybe someone wants to do them up and I would be more than happy to help out on these!

when I open my headlights, I am going to nightshade the orange, instead of replace them with clear.
the other thing I may be interested in doing is flipping my optima battery on it's side - but seems like the stock battery cables only work with it upright ?? also, still need to swap out my damn IACV I've had sitting on my desk for a year now.

[99cougarred]

Damn a lot of good ideas and as ive only had my cougar for a few months I havent touched the interior as ive been afraid of messing something up lol.id love to install some led's and red would b perfect.I would buy whatever and i know its a meet but id still like to kick in some cash for helping or buy the food and brew.I have about 65,000 miles and i would like to tune it up.Anyway whatever you guys are down for I'd love to get done as soon as possible.YA ya NW iz in hizouse lol.

[Goldie]

yeah - my mileage is also 64,000 :|

[99cougarred]

So ya im down for whatever...next month would be cool and im gonna get a day off i think to stay over in seattle and hit a tune shop since there isnt one around here.If tad knows if any close it would be cool to stop by and take a look.Anyway its funny how taking off those amber side markers make a huge differnce and I didnt realize how hideous those amber ones were.How long does a tune up take?Just plugs as i got K&N intake with injen intake and just changed synthetics so...just plugs and whatever else.I havent really got to even look at other cougars so im stoked at just that...

instead of me listing what i know how to do, how about you tell me what you want done and i'll tell you if i can do it
save me some typing
I do know a bit about fiberglass/CF/plastics/molding/painting/etc.. and then just the normal stuff
headlights are easy.. i've not done them to my own car but have helped someone before
just cut it open and seal it back up
I think i have an extra headlight somewhere you could practice on somewhere in my basement
I can bring tools and stuff but as Goldie said, I have limited space to work on stuff. We were lucky last time because neither of my roomates were home that day.
