      • Treated all the plastic and rubber body/interior bits to a cleanup/polish with that goo that Mothers' makes for said purpose. Smells nice, too. Like almonds.
        Had to wash it (again) after doing that.
        Purchased a UHF radio receiver. (25-1300MHz).
        Purchased a wotsit to detect emissions in the 905nM band. (laser.) (Lasers can damage eyesight.)

        Going to be fun having those installed. Think I'll get a band expander for the radio, too.

                  • Finally installed MTEC HIDs on my pog!!! Yes I've adjusted the headlights and in combination with the eyelids, it shouldn't cause problems with oncoming traffic.

                      Will report results after all this flooding goes away and I am back at work to receive the package!!!

                            • Reset an exhaust warning light by disconnecting the battery... hopefully it doesn't come back!
                              Just because it happened to you, doesn't make it interesting

                                Get someone to give it a scan next time it comes on.

                                O2 sensors seem to die early on polos.
