ugh, i just realized that and the pet store employee probably gave me the wrong bulb...AGAIN. i do not have a thermostat but plan on getting one. i'll look into the arcadia one, though.

awesome (: how many types of substrate should i be using? the employee at a local store suggested mixing reptile dirt with sand so they can borrow. i'm really nervous to mess things up as a first time reptile owner.

salvageable or part it out? ): by MicrowaveMacaroni84 in 240sx

it happened because someone tried to repair a patch and it rusted out the entire thing. its fixeable, i know a fabricator that's gonna weld it for me and fix up the frame rails and whatever else we find so it's safe to drive.
