hahaha yeah. I've been dirty from my truck plenty of times, I just don't normally take pics of it. I don't like getting my camera's all greasy .
I'll still be a picture ***** tho. It's been a while since I took some pics of my truck...next time I clean her all up I'll have to take her out for some "spring" shots.

I haven't had any issues with mine? I have one that went out on me when I first did it, but it was juat a can connection in the socket. Are they all out? I know with LEDs they can blow fuses really easy because of resistance issues, but you said all your fuses are good?

That's weird. Sounds more like a connection issue to me. Did you buy the same ones I posted up? If so, just have a look at the sockets and make sure the terminals have good contact and that all the bulbs are pushed in all the way.

Well I got my new cap/rotor and wires put in today. Misfire is gone. Turns out they were the ORIGINAL wires from 2001!! Yeah, I was surprised too lol. 186k km's and the original wires. One has a pretty obviously slice in it too.
I managed to get my sunroof open too. It's still broken though, the drivers side track is missing a piece that broke off. It's a tiny plastic piece thats broken off from somewhere. It doesn't tilt anymore, but at least it opens .
Next on my list is rear pads and my O2 sensor. Hopefully next week or the week after.

hahaha funny you mention that. I did the cap and rotor myself and 1/2 the wires. Stitch did the other half (in the interest of time..the hockey game was almost on). I had mentioned to him about you saying all I did was take pics and never get dirty. When I was doing the cap and rotor I was kneeling up on top of the engine (and yes, my hands were dirty). He was going to snap a pic of me but didn't get a chance too lol. Sorry Curtis...no pics for you. When I do my O2 sensor and my Hub I'll take a pic of me getting greasy . I can't even imagine paying labour for something like that...such an easy thing to do. besides that I'm cheap..

Actually I had a few scary minutes with it. It was broken for a while now and would only tilt and not open. Everytime I went to open it it made the god aweful cracking noice and wouldn't go back. I gave it a wack on the top and it started moving back no problem (the drivers side wasn't going down enough to allow it to go back into the roof). After that though I went to close it and it didn't seal properly. There was this massive gap on the drivers side and it wasn't raising all the way to seal it. Scared the crap out of me since it would have leaked like a **** lol. After fidddling with it for a bit and opening and closing it a few times it sealed properly. Very scary few minutes though lol. I was trying to think of how I was going to fix it since it wasn't sealed properly and it was raining out.

That's weird man. I hate electrical to tell you the truth. Doesn't make a lick of sense to me lol. Maybe post up something in the electrical board (if you haven't already) and see if someone with more experience might be able to lend you some tips...
