I had an iphone, wasn't that great, IMHO.

Tomorrow the Blazer goes back to the mechanic. It's been bucking pretty badly lately, and I'm starting to smell gas near the back of the truck. Hopefully it's all a simple issue of a loose connection at the fuel pump or something. (i.e. something that isn't going to cost me money to fix)

I plan on replacing my front parking lights with them. I've always wanted led front signals (not just led bulbs). We'll see how it goes.

I know it's a little late now but you can find LED housing/bulbs on ebay that look pretty nice. Probably not as cheap as you got those for though cause i'm guessing you got them on superbrightleds...haha.

Remember though you will need to do one of two things, install a digital flasher (my prefferred method) or install a load equalizer. If those are truck sidemarkers (which they look like) they won't have any built in load equalization unless they are designed as retrofit.

Putting in brand new rod and head bearings. Also put in a brass freeze plug kit, high volume oil pump and strainer, along with a new metal intake manifold gasket.
