Without a doubt. He has already done work on 4 cars in my family. This is the 5th He's my go to guy Phil and without a doubt your best recommedation to date. After removing the wing on the 91 he has gotten all the families paint work.

It's funny I have an electrical guy, a stucco guy, a paint guy hell even a neon guy.....

Who said tradesmanship is dead in the USA? I admit it's hard to find quality work at a fair price. All my guys prices are fair. That was keeps me coming back hell I even have a steel fab guy.

All I can say folks is invest local... If you can..... and in this club for ALL these reasons

Relieved to see that, Darryl; you've described exactly what I am experiencing. I had been led to believe my problem was unique. I see a transition from HID to LED fogs in my '91's future.

Not so. I know some folks had no problem with those kits however that was not my experience. I always wondered if a up amped alternator would have fixed the problem but I prefer the low power usage LEDs. I am thinking on LED headlights for the 90. But I have a lot of things to get to first and I am waiting for the price to drop on them as well. GC

The LED fogs do not produce a ton of light. The LED headlight conversion are awesome that I used. I made a post on here about it.

Sorry we're hijacking your thread, Darryl. The fog light conversion seems to be the most challenging of all the bulbs to convert to modern-day illumination. I got a note from Superbrights that their 881 should work as a replacement for the stock 896, but I was hoping the "simple" version of the 881 (LED with socket) would work; Superbrights referred me to the 881 version with the copper braid. Has anyone tried that version? It seems like a lot of product to stuff into the fog assembly.

I got the fog lights from superbrightleds and was disappointed with the result. They are not that bright.
