    Too good for a rat rod but no where near perfect.

    Replaced the crankshaft & cam shaft position sensors.

    The crankshaft one was a pain only because you have to unbolt the A/C compressor.

    Finally replaced the broken moon roof sliders and fixed the leaking drain hose (there is one at each corner of the moon roof frame).

    I made the mistake of trying to open it one morning when the temp was below freezing, and both of them cracked on the plastic part. Shoddy design for sure, and I wasn't looking forward to the job, thinking I would have to remove the headliner and the entire frame itself, which runs the length of the roof, but I had put it off long enough and the roof would oscillate at speeds over 65 MPH without anything to hold the back of it down.

    This job *can* be done without having to remove the entire frame assembly, it just requires removing the moon roof, which is held on by four Torx t-20 screws, notching the inside frame rail on each side with a Dremel tool, removing the broken sliders, and installing the new ones in a downward fashion towards the outside rail.

    The sliders are available for about $65 on eBay. You'll want to notch the inside of the rails towards the front, not the back, and the sliders have two metal tabs which hook into plastic inserts on the cable which moves them backwards and forwards. Tap lightly on the metal part, not the plastic, to seat them in the channel.

    I'll post some pics if anyone is interested.

    That’s a big improvement! I need to look at this option. Assume trouble free install?

I took a picture with only 1 bulb replaced so you can see the difference, the passenger bulb was a phillips extreme or similar one I had put in.

    Updated with more pics, all I can say is WOW!!!! These are brighter than I thought they were going to be
