    Clear Corner/Turn Signal Light Bulbs??

    So, I ended up just keeping the amber bulbs for now, and I don't think it looks too bad! Or at least not as bad as I thought it would be ;) The clear corners actually tone down the amber color a bit so it's not so in your face. Here's a link for how it looks with lights on and lights off...

    Clear Corner/Turn Signal Light Bulbs??

    yea, I looked at something like that, but my concern is that if I go with the LEDs they will be a ton brighter than my headlights, and I cannot afford to get HIDs in my headlights right now...

    Hi everyone! So, I purchased a set of clear corner lights for my Ex, and they came with the standard amber light bulbs. I have done some research into getting some clear or chrome lights that light amber, but havent been able to decide, any suggestions or has anyone done something like this...

    New Lower Billet Installed!

    Finally got my bumper billet installed today. Purchased a Viogi grille set, both lower and upper, and will never buy from them again! Instructions had me using tinnerman nuts, which are basically U-speed nuts. These were not included in the kit, and the ones that I could find at the hardware...

    Removing Lower Grille?

    Thanks for the info! I wasn't sure if there were nuts on there or not because it's kind of a tight spot! I wish that I could just mount mine over the stock one, but it will not fit with my licence plate bracket :( I am planning on using spacers if necessary in order to get it to look right...

    Removing Lower Grille?

    Hi guys! So, as some of you may know based on a prior post, I am trying to install my upper and lower billet grilles. I got the upper grille installed and looking about how I like it, but I am at a loss as to how to go about removing my lower grille in order to install the billet one. I know...

    New Billet Grille, Need Help with Surround

    Yea I was looking at those, but I think I am going to try and make mine work. I think that I may be able to bend the tabs at the top a bit and lower the grille slightly to cover up most of what I don't like. I don't mind the "bumps" on the bottom, but I don't like that space in the middle that...

    New Billet Grille, Need Help with Surround

    Hi Everyone! So, I installed a new billet grille on my Ex this weekend (just the upper for now), and it looks good except for the bare area surrounding the grille. The billet grille didn't have any surround, and when I took off the factory grille, it left about a 1/2 in area where the...

    Issues with my 02, Dealer Broke it???

    They want me to replace from the cat back, everything including tailpipe. The original owner (I'm the second) put an aftermarket one on there so it's loud anyways, but a lot of the pipes are starting to rust pretty bad (I looked myself), including the muffler, and it is getting increasingly...

    Issues with my 02, Dealer Broke it???

    I most certainly do! :) If the weather wasn't so crappy and I had more time, I'm sure that I could've done some of the work myself, but with 6 inches of snow, work, and christmas parties this weekend, I didn't have time for my car to leave me stranded somewhere an hour from home... Here's to...

    Issues with my 02, Dealer Broke it???

    Well, I had to take my Explorer in earlier than my appointment because I couldn't get it to start for a while this morning and my CEL came on last night when I was attempting to get my engine cover off. There were multiple issues that I got fixed today: Replaced #3 Coil, #8 Spark Plug, Battery...

    Exproblems, thank you so much for the instructions! I will be hopefully attempting to do this tomorrow night. I do not have the socket wrench needed to get the engine cover off or the cleaner yet, so I will be purchasing them tomorrow after work, as long as the weather isn't horrible (we are...

    Issues with my 02, Dealer Broke it???

    Thanks for the help guys! The electrical issues were resolved last weekend at the dealership, but I am interested in cleaning out the throttle body if either of you could give me "dumbed down" instructions. I am more mechanically inclined than many women, but most of the instructions are...

    Issues with my 02, Dealer Broke it???

    Hello All! Let me start off my saying that I am absolutely fed up with my Explorer! I have had it for 1.5 years, and replaced two window motors, electrical wiring in driver's door, and switches in passenger door, totaling $1000+ dollars. The electrical wiring was done 2 weeks ago due to my...
