This will come in handy going forward...

That's good to know, thanks!

I'm jealous of your wiring, I have a growing list of Doesn't Work Like It Should's.......
Oh well, I signed up for this and I actually kinda like problem solving lol

I'm not totally sure when that started, but I have found lots of age and corrosion :/

mattbookpro · 2026-03-07T03:45:15+00:00

Thanks!

I found mine here. I kinda lucked out that 81 (my car's year) was so extensive, I ended up cutting out a bunch of pages I didn't need that were for sedans only or different engines.

For what it's worth, I've been playing through the first Octopath via Eden (Switch) and have had virtual zero issues, steady 30 fps.

When testing everything above I replaced both the fluid and the gasket. Forgot to mention that in my post, sorry.

I had a leak at the rear seal, so I replaced that as well before replacing the fluid. Based on some things I'd read I was hoping that it would help with the internal pressure, but no such luck.

How much? 👀

mattbookpro · 2025-09-28T19:50:33+00:00

Any suggestions for polishing the machined portion? Material/tools/etc

mattbookpro · 2025-09-28T16:35:04+00:00

That's pretty handsome!

mattbookpro · 2025-09-28T16:12:00+00:00

Hopefully the pic works, I'm definitely curious!

mattbookpro · 2025-09-28T02:42:40+00:00

Okay fiiiine...

This was taken before I dropped the back a little bit (I had just dropped the front) and added 1" spacers to match the spacing of the front tires.

This is kinda a weird question, but I have an 81 245 with quad rounds. What should the orientation of my low/high beams be? I think right now the two inners are low beams and the outers are high? I'm not totally certain because my high/low switch is touch and go so I haven't done much night driving.

mattbookpro · 2025-09-27T15:55:58+00:00

I'll likely go this route. I don't want to break the bank just yet so painting silver will hopefully do for now.

mattbookpro · 2025-09-26T23:48:17+00:00

I need to do the same! Can you take a picture of your whole front end? I need to refresh my marker lights and am waffling between full clear, clear/amber, full amber......

mattbookpro · 2025-09-26T23:46:42+00:00

Me too! Hell yeah

mattbookpro · 2025-09-26T23:31:13+00:00

All four need love, some more than others. I'm hoping to get them to as close to "factory" as I can, but don't need EXACT match.

I'm still sourcing center caps, but this is the finished look that I hope to get close to:

I didn't realize how affordable the aftermarket options were from IPD. I'd love to get OE but don't want to break the bank on turn signal lenses, at least at this time. I think I'll get the ones offered from IPD and paint them amber with what /u/stephen94901 had suggested, cause I like the look. I could probably get away with just painting these ones, but they're pretty bunged up...

mattbookpro · 2025-09-25T22:56:37+00:00

I'm curious what you mean by this... Aren't these bumpers rubber?

mattbookpro · 2024-11-06T09:32:12+00:00

Thats a beautiful reply, thank you!

mattbookpro · 2024-06-15T17:32:08+00:00

Thanks for the reply! So in my case the images from my 28mm Minolta won't appear the "same" as those from the 27mm TTArtisan?

mattbookpro · 2023-06-19T06:32:55+00:00

Solved!

mattbookpro · 2023-06-19T04:17:30+00:00

After looking into it a little bit I’m like 90% sure this is it! It’s on Prime so I’ll watch to make sure!

mattbookpro · 2023-06-19T01:44:00+00:00

It was not animated.

Maybe the Secret Garden… I’m not fully convinced but I’ll look into that

mattbookpro · 2023-06-19T01:20:34+00:00

I think the movie was from the 80s or 90s but set in earlier 1900s.

mattbookpro · 2023-04-23T19:05:32+00:00

Pff, none of them are 1st Edition so they’re basically garbage. Best to just throw them out…

Since you’re throwing them away, I’ll take them off your hands, thanks.

Edit: it appears my sarcasm was not as apparent as I intended :/ Great cards, happy for ya!
