Yes sir. I am not 100% I have them on there, but am also not 100% on what they look like when installed, so I'm not sure what I should be looking for.

Likes me some cars. Nom nom. :icon17:







Funny part is the dude running out like, "Yo! What'd you do with my car?!"

Fireman: "Sir... do you see that ginormous friggin' hole over there?"
Distraught citizen: "Yeah..."
Fireman: "Please turn off your alarm, it's annoying."

you see those little thin collars on the straight part of the bend? those are lateral movement locking collars...aka shaft collar locks.

you can buy them separately. it appears some of the first lots for the Z did not come with them. the rear whiteline bar does not come with them.

you can also buy the rapist versions... ($35 each)

I'll have to wait until later in the week to go check, it's doing that floating moisture dizzle shit. :shakes head:

kenchan 04-18-2013 01:56 PM

so i was checking out some driving lights to put on my fit. why? cause i dont want to run daytime running lights, but i want to have my headlights turned on in the rain.

but then if i turn on my headlights, my HU's screen dims and then i cant see the screen very well. and DRL is too yellow hue, makes my car look meh.

so, easy swap wouldve been to swap out the bulbs... but my car (it being a cheaparse car) uses H4 bulbs which is for drl, low, and high beam. :facepalm: so this mean i would burn through PIAA bulbs in like 5-6months. $50 a pair. too costly.

so, wanted to get a pair of PIAA drving lights and use that instead. and turn off DRL.

that sucks. im not sure if you can see it without taking the bottom shroud off. if your car doenst have it, i recommend you just getting the shaft collar locks (2 piece versions) get a pair. they work the same.

even the pair that comes with bar, if you buy them separately they're like $20 each. :eekdance:
