you just have to get over the fact that you're putting your headlights in the oven and the rest is pretty straight forward. there was plenty of goo in my heqadlights that i didn't need to add more. (it's some type of 3m windshield goo) washed the car sat morning and no leaks yet(finger crossed ) if ya want the tips, let me know.

here they are:
oven 200F. light (one a time) on cookie sheet. 10-15min( i did 13min). mine had several screws around the housing and 4 clips on the bottom. i took screws out b4 oven.

once out of oven( they are hot ), used a skinny screwdriver and pry apart.

do want you want with the lenses, but DO NOT touch the shiny reflectors!

push lights back together without screws. put back in oven, 200f for 10-15min. push together fully and install the screws. done!

Someone suggested going to Denunzio's for tire mounting and balancing. How many have had experience with them? And where are they?

I'm sick of getting wheels ruined and not balanced properly.

I know its not an evo, but its one of the funniest cars I've been around, my friends Tsi talon:

junk talon

Well he finally went 11's which is so awsome for a car with so little invested into it:

junk talon actually moves down a track

I used to go there all the time. They also have race gas.

Just explain to the guy that runs the shop that you take your wheels seriously.

I have never had a wheel damaged in any way there.

For sale.

Set of evo 8 Recaro front and rear seats. Make me and offer!

Autopower 4pt roll bar. $ 350.

Anything else you can think of that would come off of a stock evo. lol

I also have some wheels and tires. The wheels are Enkie CDR9's in a +40 offset. 17x7. They have a set of Michelin Pilot sport A/S on them. 225-45-17. The wheels are in good-fair condition and the tires a pretty much brand new. I'd like $425 for the wheels and tires.
