    Thanks for the kind words, fellas. I know that I haven't tackled anything major with the ZHP yet, but I enjoy tweaking things here and there to make a vehicle more "mine".

    I also noticed on the reverse light housing, there is a spot that looks like it could have been made to hold another bulb to illuminate the red area surrounding the reverse light, but is blocked off. Possibly for Euro models? Thinking about adding a small LED or two, to light with the brake lights.

    Here is the bulb area, to the left of the reverse bulb in the first pic and below the reverse bulb in the second :

    That spot is for rear fog light.

    Interesting that yours is blocked off.

    Also you got the reverse lights from kohalty correct?

    I like your pics. I think I will pick up a set.

    Rear fog lights, eh? That is interesting ...........
    I did get the bulbs from Khoalty. Ordered at 1:30 p.m., shipping confirmation less than an hour later, and bulbs at my door within 48 hours. Can't really beat that!

    Yep rear fogs but in the pic below you can see that my passenger side lights up as well (rear fog on left, normal running light on right) so maybe verts are different. I am not sure.


    But thanks. I'll order a set of those lights.

    If I recall, coupe and vert will need to run wiring to the rear for the rear fog.

    I would agree with this. There are only 2 wires running to the light assembly, and they are the + & - for the reverse light.
    But, from the looks of things inside the assembly, they use a common ground. The middle "tab" coming out of the connector runs to both sockets. Then the left and right outermost "tabs" run to the reverse and fog/tail light sockets, respectively.

    So, one of the ZHP's tires developed a slow leak. I break out the trusty air compressor, and as I am airing up I hear the sound of air escaping as I got near 35 PSI.
    Off comes the rim/tire, and I find this:

    The chalk I used to pinpoint the sound of the air leak, as it was on the back side. So, off to the local Wheel Fix It shop. 3 days and $150 (including repair, mount and balance) I get a straightened and cleaned rim. They had 5 or 6 chalk marks on the tire, showing the multiple places where the rim needed attention.
    Well, I couldn't just put one clean rim on the car, so the other three had to come off and be cleaned as well. 9 years of brake dust and road grime is a PITA to remove. And chrome doesn't like brake dust, so the insides of the rims are somewhat pitted. But, after about 3 hours, at least they are relatively clean now.
    Here is a before and after pic (or I guess technically it is after and before?)

    As a side note, I don't think the spare has ever seen the light of day since being installed in the trunk. It still has the bar-code label on it.
