2 xenon leveling sensors, right? Where's the rear sensor?
Passenger side on the wishbone control arm (one the spring sits on) . There is a bracket bolted to the arm that holds the pivot arm of the sensor.Quote:

Yeah no holding and occasionally make a grinding noise as the wheels rotate. I've adjusted it and the handle feels tight but just never really worked

You adjusted the brake along with the cable for the lever right?Quote:

Have you inspected the brake shoe? Remove the rotor and check the brake shoe. It might be glazed over or out of material.Quote:

*edit*
maybe you meant what year did those options start? If so, I'm not sure :( sorry
ZHP always had those as options, it was released long before production of our cars. You could have theoretically ordered a stripper ZHP with halogens, business cd, manual sports seats, no sunroof, fixed rear seats
... but ac delete was never an option :(

They were likely always an option, they came out in the late 90s
You described my car except for the manual seats/sunroof... LolQuote:

Is there supposed to be a gap?

Only 1 of the two stock attachment holes lines up. The AFE housing can't move any further forward as its already touching the frame rail (top right of pic).

Really squishes the intake bellows.

Only 3 of 4 cover plate holes line up.

Yes there is supposed to be a gap and these are common fitment problems with the aFe intake. You can flex the metal a bit to make it fit. Same issues are seen with the cover. The stock elbows will be slightly scrunched so it's good if they are newerish, but not terrible if they aren't. Sucks this is how fitment is on an aftermarket part, but most deal with it because of the performance/noise gain.
Lower intake boot was replaced last year so no problem there. Having fitment issues on a $400 air intake is a bit disapointing but not a big deal.

How can I bleed my clutch after a CDV delete without a bleeder? Doing it tomorrow and I don't want to leave air in there.

The standard headlights use the same H7 bulb for both high beam and low beam. 12v 55w. If the bulbs are the same what is the difference between high beam and low beam? is it just the aim?

the normal 2 man method. but the pedal doesn't come back up on it's own, you have to pull it back up. then when all the bubbles are out, pump the pedal until it goes up on it's own and you should be good.Quote:

So, this question definitely fits this thread I believe, but is it "normal" to hear a buzzing/electrical whirring sound whenever you open the door, if so, what is that? Almost sounds like something is activating when the door is opened.

Yup. Aim and shape of the reflector. Probably 90% shape of the reflector.Quote:
