Awwwwwww...isn't that precious! Uhm, but I don't think you'd want DCFS to see those two pics bro, especially with the road sloping downwards toward her like that.

Knowing them, they'd be on your @$$ faster than Michael Jackson on prepubescent little boys...

Actually , that's an optical (camera) illusion , the road slopes away from our house , dips about 40 feet back (behind the car) of where the pic was taken , and goes back up hill. The car wasn't going anywhere but away from her , trust me. And not like those ****heads will ever know where I live anyway.

Anyways , back on topic. I can't get either of my digicams to take decent pics of the lighted dash in the dark. Gotta be a way to set these up to take decent pics in the dark with no flash. I'll post pics as soon as I get some seeable ones.

I did the 3 of the ones behind the climate control unit itself. I'll do a write up with pics , but I want to finish the whole thing first. No point in leading the rest of you astray with a project gone bad.

I think you just invented a new word there, buddy! Hahaaha! My co-workers and I were just talking about that the other day...I think you can submit new words on this one internet site (can't remember the address), have it copyrighten (is that a new word??), and win prizes and stuff! Maybe we should all start innoventing new words from now on...

Innoventing (in-no-vent-ing) - the formulation of a ground-breaking word or idea.

What's so odd about "Seeable"

To my knowledge , that word is in the dictionary , and I've heard other people say it.

Hey, what about the word "Seaable"?! I think I could win something for this word!

Seaable (see a ble) - a person that has been properly train to travel on water for extended periods of time. (e.g. golly, he sure is a seaable fellow.)

I have 2 300zx,s and both of them have the lights out

WOW! This is an old thread.

But to answer the questions, it's been done before:

But you're obviously more than welcome to make your own.

If you can't read the post above your post, you probably won't be able to read the instructions that are in the link I just provided.
