Yea I thought I might try to get some better wheel covers this time. Maybe like an OE setup for another Chrysler vehicle.

That's gonna be a nice car when you get it all up to par.

Side note: I lived in those apartments between 88th and 92nd off Wadsworth for a year. I barely remember most of my times there...

J-King:
Thanks for the offer on the SRT wheels, PM me with the details and we'll see if I can swing it.

You need to comeback to Colorado so you can refresh your memory!

Ok everyone, update time....

So I havent been on here much lately, I got consumed with my other vehicles and life in general. I still have my little Neon, still ticking away, quite well actually. I need to do a heater core in the car (Im dreading that) and then its t-belt, water pump, etc time...

But for now, my update is I might be buying these wheels/tires from a buddy of mine and I need to know what you guys/gals think before I seal the deal. (I know, I need to lower the damn thing too)

18" TSW Revo's (custom drilled for our bolt pattern, from TSW)

215/35/18 BFG's (well two of them are anyway)

They look OK, but 18's are too big for a Neon, IMHO.

Thanks guys, im on the fence w/the diameter due to the rubber bands it requires... I like how they look, but im unsure of our roads and 35 series tires.

I do love the hammer head!

Well I have put my 16's back on for now and for winter (since they are all seasons). I replaced my dead heater core over the weekend (What a pita) and now need to reseal and recharge my A/C system in the near future...

Then my trunk light stopped working and I have determined that I dont have any ground coming out of the latch when the lid is open. Anyone ran into this? Do I just replace the latch or is there a repair I can do?

Looking good for sure man, should tint those windows though. I had the same color interior in my 05 and it was such a

to keep clean I swapped to the black/dark slate grey love every bit of it. Just throwing you some ideas.

neon2.0 · Post by **neon2.0** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 10:14 pm

I agree man, I want to tint the windows, lower it, paint the door handles/mirrors, etc. I would love to swap to all SRT4 interior, engine/trans, etc. maybe someday....

Well if you end up swapping interior let me know my uncle has a couple neons in his jy so if you start a interior swap I can get you the hook up or on parts in general that goes for anyone on here really

Sweet buddy I appreciate that... I actually am trying to add cruise to this bad boy. I have the vac actuator and the vac canister, but I need the wiring harness, the clock spring and the steering wheel mounted switch. Wanna help me out?

Yeah I will go out there this weekend and see what I can come up with I seen that there is some cruise control stuff for sale in the parts section on here not 100% sure but don't you need a steering wheel from a neon with cruise or can you just add the switch

neon2.0 · Post by **neon2.0** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 7:25 am

Ok cool, ill take a look at the parts section too, it looks like there is a knock out in my wheel for it... more investigation to come I suppose.

That's funny. I use to live near 104th and Huron.....that was forever ago.

Dang, changing the heater core is no small task. Good job!

Pubic D, cool let me know.

Zero, yea it sucks, I hate pulling steering columns and such... but it wasnt the worst thing Ive ever done. The urethane front control arm bushings sucked to do as well, but its tight as hell now!

Public Disturbance · Post by **Public Disturbance** » Fri Nov 04, 2011 8:30 pm

55+ shipping sound ok? We wanted 90 but I told him it was all for my car

neon2.0 · Post by **neon2.0** » Fri Nov 04, 2011 8:39 pm
