    Plug n play headlight harness upgrade

    They are halogens. Plug and play. LED'S depending on manufacturer, they do not fit through the factory headlamp buckets. Both HID and KED are bright,but do not throw the light like good halogens. Aiming the headlights after the conversion makes a huge difference,too.

    I got a new optometrist last year, maybe I can get you a referral. Perhaps this one is tripping your Medina fancy?

    Speaker Options when Upgrading OEM Mono Radio

    Good find, sometimes I wish our country and Japan chose to drive on the right side of the road. Would make parts so much easier to get and Japan has some pretty snazzy cars lol. I'm too young to really know about this, but I wonder if it's because everyone uses FM now, so head units and...

    Are LED headlights a worthwhile upgrade?

    Not necessarily aim, but the beam pattern - the reflector is shaped precisely to aim the light exactly the way it should: The shape is designed around the exact locations of the halogen filaments - if the diodes on the LEDs do not match up the beam pattern will be thrown completely off. Notice...

    Speaker Options when Upgrading OEM Mono Radio

    On my Newport, I found a junked car with the side dash cutouts and lifted the speaker grills. I actually removed my Newport window, cut holes in the dash, and installed the painted factory speaker grills. Wanted to maintain the OEM speaker as a "center" channel like Home Theater, but it did not...

    Undo a fitting or two and lower manually. Have a bucket or pan ready for fluid.

    Speaker Options when Upgrading OEM Mono Radio

    Yeah with a single dash speaker I just don't think you'll get a stereo effect no matter what you do. Only other way to remedy that would be to fit speakers or tweeters in the corners of the dash, either under or above, and stick some speakers in the doors. That would require cutting up the door...

    Plug n play headlight harness upgrade

    Thanks for this how-to post! It opened up new worlds for me. One question- What type of bulbs were those PIA extremes- HID, Halogen, or LED? Why did you choose them over other types?

    Are LED headlights a worthwhile upgrade?

    Thanks. Not sure I understand why lights would blind everyone else but hardly light up the road for me. You talking about aim? Funny that all new cars have headlight relays, and like you said, my Newport headlight wiring connector is about burned to a crisp. Who makes a headlight relay assembly...

    Speaker Options when Upgrading OEM Mono Radio

    Thanks. With FM I will be able to hear music in higher fidelity. I was thinking about a new single coaxial speaker, even if for mono sound, that would let me hear some higher frequencies than the OEM speaker. With my Ford Pinto, I went to all the trouble of fabricating a bracket to hold two...

    What is your dream car?

    That's one expensive ice cream bar, but if I ever have the money, I'm buying a Cuda Creamsicle Convertible. Sweet!

    1966 Newport convertible hydraulics

    Thanks. Yes I've seen that diagram. My problem is that the roof is up and I can't access the top pin to remove the ram. Not game enough to start undoing bolts without a little knowledge. Only had the car a few weeks

    65 or 66 Fury wagon rear bumper wanted

    Hi guys, I’m chasing a complete rear bumper for a 1966 or 65 Plymouth fury three wagon. I bought a wagon earlier this year and it is complete minus the running gear and rear bumper. Any condition considered, the wagon will be a Patina daily driver so it does not need to be perfect. I am in...

    Speaker Options when Upgrading OEM Mono Radio

    A fancy/high-end dash speaker would probably be a waste of money; a vehicle is probably the last place you'd ever expect to get a good acoustic environment, especially with our cars that don't have the 40-50 years of advancements in acoustic engineering and knowledge. I went with a 4x10 Custom...
