Set the visor up to see how it looks. Going to see how it looks with the lights tonight then put it in the shop until I have the paint for it.

It's a Canadian thing eh!
Another day of electrical problems. Yesterday I discovered that after turning on my park lights, they would not turn off. Tried multiple times pulling and pushing in the switch but the lights stayed on but headlights would go out. At home I pulled the 15amp fuse under the dash for the switch, but again they stayed on. Whats weird if I pulled the battery terminal off and plugged it back in the lights would go off then stay on if I pulled the switch again.
Back of my head told me this was not a switch problem so after testing some circuits I pulled the trailer light relay under the hood and they went off and I could turn them on and off again. New relay and same problem but I remembered when I was looking for my draw the other day I had I replaced the 25 amp fuse for the trailer relay which was blown. Plugged the relay back in and pulled the fuse and my lights worked normally again. So something in my trailer light circuit is keeping my park lights on whenever the system is getting power.
Gonna look over my diagrams and do some more testing when its nicer out but at least its working normally.

today i put on a glasspack. I was 100 percent happy with the way it sounds now. I thought the 300 i6 would sound really bad with anything other than stock, but the glasspack still gives it a very deep tone but it is just SLIGHTLY louder. the only problem is i forgot to buy new exhaust hangers.... and i couldnt find any of our bailing wire.... so i have $60 worth of copper wire holding on a $40 dollar glasspack.
