Are you still on stock lines or is it aftermarket?
What did you do for your Terminator today?

Aftermarket steel braided lines.
Installed some Metco double bearing idlers today. I had some BPS single bearing idlers already but didn't like the way they would move around under load. Amazing build quality and craftsmanship on the Metcos!
Also here's a teaser to something else I have in the works!

A projector retro was a fun and very useful project, I am so glad I have a set back in my Cobra. What housings did you start with, I used an old crappy set and I junked them after a few months. I bought a set (SW lights) and I dont think I could have matched the fit and finish so it was worth the cost to me.
Havent done any driving at night yet so the jury is still out for the bulbs and projector he used. Please post up some output shots when you get things wrapped up. What did you make the DRL with by the way???
Made myself a custom redfire/dark charcoal weighted shift knob.
Sorry for the multiple posts. My phone wacked out.
That's a good looking set. Metco idlers IMO are the best out there. Best looking, too.
I bought the headlights on Amazon and they come with the DRL installed. . They're just your average chinese made headlight so hopefully they hold up. The projectors are Morimoto D2S and I'l be using some high output Osram bulbs. I've done many retrofits using Morimoto D2S projectors and they never fail to impress.
I had retrofitted some dark smoked housings on the car previously and liked they way they looked but the dark tint cut the light output too much at night.
Does getting new tools count? I picked up a couple pairs of soft jaws for my vise in the hopes they'll make assembling the fuel lines easier.
Swapped the pulley on my Whipple 2.9 last night. Went from my 3.5 Whipple pulley to a 2.75 griptec pulley. Gonna go out and bury my foot in it to see what this new engine can handle! We'll see how rowdy she gets!

Why the Morimoto D2S, Ive only ever used the Morimito Mini H1. Is it preference or something technical???
Started the 48 hour leatherique leather care process! Leather is going to look amazing, soft, and clean after this!

Also, experimenting with a different front emblem. Normal cobra size is 2-3/4", the oversized one is 4" (looks too big), I found a cobra that was 3.5" so i put it on a b

Bracket. Not sure about it or a cobra in general.

The projector is larger meaning more output and better optics. There's also a much better selection of bulbs available for D2S. The downside is obviously the size of the projector. It's a very tight fit into a New Edge headlight and requires significant modifications. The new lights I bought are even smaller inside due to the DRL so I am concerned I'll run into fitment issues. Time will tell.
Damn. Switching over to E or race gas at the same time I hope
