The pick and pull is in pearl city. If your going thru pearl city towards town, you take a right right after the dodge dealership at the intersection where McDonald's is and 7-11 towards the army housing. Then you take a right down a little dirt road right before the park on your left. Pretty remote and kinda hard to get to. But like I said they never have anything I need.
I have a scanner if you need to scan the car.
Who are you talking about in Kapolei? I'm good with sounds. I'm on HCA as well and competing in the sound comp at Traffic Jam this Saturday. I build boxes too if you ever need one. Lmk if you need help with the sound system.
I'm wanting to do a projector retro fit as well and plan to go purple accents on my gp


hes at the hawaii self storage next to kmart and home depot.

If you take the motors off the regulators and they spin fine it's because there is no resistance. I thought the same thing and then replaced my motors anyway and turned out it was the motors. Pushing up the windows by hand is a bit tough, but shouldn't be "hard." I'd realign the regulators, make sure you get some wd40 all the way down the tracks, take the glass out if need be, and if the problem is still occurring replace the motors.

so i got some advice and instead of a list really im going to make each task like a project with little detours on the side... my first project to be done is to change the tail lights.


so my low oil level light came on and i added some more oil but i was curious to where it could be coming from... time to inspect....
 
hey guys.. i know its been a while like a week or 2 but ive been busy as well as hurt my foot. im going to take a new approach to this car. im going to tackle everything like a project. so far here is my list and due to money being limited it might change as well

1. New tail lights (stock tail lights with led bulbs)
2. Fix my back windows
3. Sounds
4. Get 2 new Tires
5. Tint

thats all i can think of at the moment. recently i met some guys that are into cars and are willing to help me out. and ill keep you guys updated on everything with the car. lets hope this works out well. im hoping to see some middle to major improvement in the car soon will keep you guys posted
