Here's a random question: what exactly does the 'eco' button under the A/C button do in the BG? Like I know it stands for economy, but does it decrease the power sent to the air con or something?

Mad Mat · 10-01-2010, 02:23 PM

sorry dude i have no idea. i think it just runs the ac compressor less. or turns it off. these are some possablities.

does anyone know what the head light high is 4 a qld car.?????

Take it to a locksmith (not a key cutter) and have it repaired. You can always ask them the price before you commit but I'd be surprised if it cost more than $50, I've had Mazda barrels re-keyed for less.

They are a very short 4>1, which then immediately collects into a short/stout pre-cat, and single 2"ish pipe from there back. It is the gayest most homo stock header ever made...
