I agree. 18 months without a roadster was too much to take!

My wife had tires mounted on the new front wheels today. Now I can mount the front and rear wheel/tire combos to determine clearance and spacer sizes. I'll be rolling on new wheels in a week ****'s!

Started working on the roadster today. I polished the headlights, changed the map lights to blue LED, and installed LED license plate lights. If the hose melts today, I'll clay bar, wash, and wax!

Blue LED map lights:

Project cost was roughly $40 and took 15 minutes to install.

How much did the headlight assemblies set you back if you don't mind me asking?

I got them from grip with Xpeel covers and HID bulbs already installed. They now have a line of light not blinding on coming traffic AND lighting up the road where it needs to be. I couldn't get my old set right for some reason. I am very happy with the $820 shipped that I paid.

Not too bad, the outside I have refinished a couple times but the inside started fogging up, not only with condensation but that light smoked color. I think Maxchicon has a thread about using pure methanol to slosh around on the inside to clean them up. I was going to try and rebuild them, take the lenses off, clean them up inside and out and maybe install halo rings and led's or something, I don't know.

I drove mine for the first time in a few months, it was only 20 degrees, but it was clear and the roads were clean, so I had a few fun miles with her

If you do take yours apart, you might end up doing something different to split the case from the lens...seems that is the hardest part of the job!
