      Thanks, I think that is what happened. There was a funny smell when I pulled the old cluster apart and the spare works perfect.

Went to the INDY car racing on Saturday with my daughter,Sunday had a BBQ party at my house (my wife got shitfaced drunk,she couldn't even walk)i had to play nice husband and put her to bed and she up-chucked and helped her with that too. She doesnt remember anything from 6pm to 8:30 pm when i brought her to our room lol. She pounded shots hardcore !!! lol . Then Monday did some long overdue work on the white e30 and then kicked it at my buddy house for a bit. Over all great weekend !!!

            Ugh... I just had to walk to work. Not really a big deal since its only about 3 miles, but carrying a bag and the morning heat and ....yea... Im not too happy. Especially since I arranged for a ride and the guy completely forgot. Good news is that the ugly flowmaster muffler will be gone and tonight I will get to enjoy my car again. At least this A/C will dry me off

                Ansa Muffler. I couldnt weld on my rear valence with that stupid muffler in the way. This should help move things along :)

                    annnnd.... to add to this wonderful day, I just got a call from the place (Ronin Autowerks) and they are now saying they want to charge me by the hour instead of the quoted rate they told me before I brought the car in.
                    Im not paying $400 to have a muffler welded in... :hitler:

                    Anyone know a good muffler shop that will weld on a muffler for a reasonable price?

                      Should have been a $60 -$80 job at the most.

                        yup, he quoted me $100 which I was fine with. Not $110/ hr and then saying 3-4 hours to do the job

                          Check out fairmount tire & rubber off of Slauson. The hood is where the deals are at.

                            You live in Solvang? I'm trying to make that a pit stop for a little mini trip I'm planning this weekend.

                            Oh hell. We paid like $30 to weld on a dual stock cat back on my brothers ETA and like $40 for 2 feet of crushed exhaust after my downpipe to be replaced at this mom/pop shop around me. Anything over $50 is a little absurd to just weld on a muffler.
