Hit a garbage can like a boss. Shouldn't have been on the street after 2p.m. Pushed it out of my spot and tipped the bitch over. Then politely put it on the curb and investigated the neighborhood to make sure no one seen what I did. Got away with this one.

Just finished building and installing my front driveshaft with monster 1410 ujoints dropping my transfer case a bit and rebuilding my carb so its time to drive it some more.
Long weekend is fast approaching and I still got more to do to make it easy enough and plenty safe for my daughter to drive it.

changed all the old bosch type fuses out of the mercedes.

the old ones didnt seem that bad when they in the fuse box but when I had them all out, they looked horrible. Some of the electronics were acting funny, like the dash flashing. the power windows were cutting in and out. cleaned the terminals and new fuses all around and now everything works as they should. The small fixes like this are the best ones!

License plate LEDs in!

Question: Should I be blurring out or hiding my license plate no.? Because I'm taking this off mobile uploads and if so I'll do it the long way.

No... With the Sport Tech package you get HIDs, Navi, 2 speakers, mirror blinkers and a sunroof. But it comes with a price tag of $4000!

They were however willing to bring down the package to $1600 though, but still I don't want a sunroof.

The mirrors, HID's, 2 speakers, and head unit are worth already around 2k itself. The ST package was well worth the money.

Yeah that's true, but I just can't afford to pay that much :P

At least it comes stock looking already better than the base
