Yeah, Authmini, where in SD are you?

I'm in El Cajon, EBMC's in UTC area...

AuthiMINI I totaly understand not being on here and just driving. Shoot I'm taking that Monday off of work just to drive and teach the missus how to drive stick. It was so very nice to meet you too. I would love to have a copy of the picture. Theat was very kind of you to take the picture and thank you. I will PM you with my Email address. I am glad you made it back in one piece, I so hate the 405.
Eric, the deal behind the rear fogs is that my car started production on Dec 12th and then got got staled at the end of that month for some reason then started up again on the 5th and then was completed on the 11th. So even though my car ended production latter than AuthiMINI it started eary before the lot for factory rear fogs.
Jim, I will probably need it by friday.

No I don't. I can't get an answere for that. It stalled on production on the 19th of Dec. and didn't pick back up untile Jan. It was a wierd deal. I hope the car doesn't turn out to be a lemon because of it.

Yea but, they didn't have an answere for me. Just that "it stoped here and started back up here" type of thing.
