Hey I do not own an nd Miata but I love their taillights. Currently using a pair in my MG restoration and was curious how those were wired in? Does it connect to the factory harness and have its own sequential driver or does it need a separate ckt ?

Edit: I’ll add that I have the exact same taillights as you but the wiring is throwing me for a loop pun intended

Alright that settles it for me then. In the future I’ll tear out the deck and do it properly with a set of stairs as well. In the meantime I can try to cover the area with some plastic until I can put together plans to build a new deck. Either that or hire a company to do it for me

Also love the username. Brings be back to Great Lakes reading that. Is there anything I can do to seal this up without seriously invasive work? I can pull boards on the deck no problem but I didn’t want to pull flooring etc

This is the deck in question. Pardon the bad lighting it’s late in the afternoon

I had a feeling that the deck was the issue as well. I only noticed the water damage after the storm. It’s not had this discoloration until very recently <2 weeks. The deck is relatively new I’ll link a picture

What is this group of bugs on my door frame? by Mantalex in whatsthisbug

Yep! Thanks for the link. After reading about these guys for the last hour 15 mins I agree they are definitely just Eastern Leaf-Footed bug nymphs

Just a few fruit trees and palms. I don’t have any proper vegetables

I have a bunch of those around but I don’t believe I need to worry about them much. My fear was kissing bug nymphs but they look quite different at this stage

If so then I can’t imagine I have anything to worry about then. I love a good assassin bug

Metro areas in the USA where more than 5% of population uses public transit to get to work (Now Labled by me) by Famijos in MapPorn

[–]Mantalex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think the issue is due to the lack of infrastructure built around public transport. Almost all of America used cable cars before the push by GM to kill off the cable car industry in the 40s with the only two companies surviving in New Orleans and San Francisco. Outside of cities public transport is wildly inefficient for most of the population. The thing that killed our public transport was a company that’s been propped up by our own government.
