Replaced the front right hub..no more abs light!! Wasn't that difficult except for the pita center wiring clamp that had a stripped bolt head. The grinder took care of that though.

I've heard the euro/altezza designer tailight/headlight covers require led lights to be installed because standard bulbs will melt the housing. Is that true?

I paid $58 shipped for my pair of hubs. Bought them on eBay from a company called "AM Auto Parts". There are no physical differences between these and the OEM, and they look like they are decent quality.
