So my keyboard is slowly taking a $h!t from the left side. I like the style because it has alot of controls on it like for music and Media Center and the usual home, email... buttons. Any recommendations on where to get a new one?

Best buy will have media keyboards like that...but online will be cheaper. Nice thing about the store is you'll actually see the board.

it has an aftermarket catalytic converter and aftermarket o2 sensor that is connected with a gap to fool the sensor. took it to the dealer and both sensor and cat aren't working.

Damn, sucks if the sensor is bad. I know there is a way to disable it in the ECU so it doesn't throw a CEL but you won't pass emissions...which is your issue anyway :-/

Welcome to the boards.

Why do you have a aftermarket o2 sensor? I've heard that you should only stick with OEM sensors unless of course your not on the stock ECU.

IMO you should switch back to oem.

Just got my first set of snow tires for the Evo delivered this week, haven't thrown them on yet.

Shawano put more wear than I originally thought on my all seasons, and with my commute going up by a lot I figured I should probably get some dedicated snows this year.
