For those of you who want to use the 9011 to replace the 9005, you will need to trim it as Daniel Stern mentioned in his response.

I am planning to replace the 9006 low-beams on my Odyssey with 9012 HIR2. I found this on the internet that might be useful. Hopefully, it's accurate.

I'm pretty sure there's only one Peak Global (alright, I left off the Lifetime). You can get it full strength or 50/50 pre-mix.

I was responding to silver_05's hyperlink. In the hyperlink that he asked about, under Asian MFG, it lists either Peak Global Lifetime or Peak Longlife. Two different products. It says "Varies by OEM."

I emailed Peak and they said Peak Global is the one we should use.

"PEAK GLOBAL LIFETIME ANTIFREEZE & COOLANT is a new

coolant technology that can be used in all automobiles worldwide,

regardless of make, model, year or current antifreeze color."

Does it look like this:

From their website:

"New Prestone® Extended Life Antifreeze/Coolant is compatible with ANY antifreeze/ coolant – regardless of color – for use in ALL makes and models of cars and light duty trucks. This patented formula provides a high degree of performance durability and carefully balanced protection against temperature extremes and rust corrosion of all cooling system metals, including aluminum. "

FYI. The average 60W bulb puts out about 880 lumens.

A few months ago, I emailed him about reverse light options. His reply was that there are no good options currently available for the LGT wagon.

He has high intensity reverse lights for other car types.

No, it is not moderator only. If you are logged in, there is a button called upload products.

I went ahead and added 3 of the oem parts dealers that operate out of WA state.

That website will list all occurrences in their database. It's the same part.

Just make sure you have the right P/N.

How about here:

Which website?

A P/N is unique. You may have seen the different applications or the different places in the database where it shows up. However. the part itself is the same.

There seems to be a lot of interest in suspension links recently. Can we add a subfolder for links under suspension? Right now, there is only the Poltec endlinks listed but it's shown at the top level.

Should we have a separate folder for lateral links and swaybar endlinks? Or just one called suspension links?

Thanks.

that's good to know. for retorquing the bolts, do you simply set the pressure valve to the appropriate torque value and tighten? i.e. for the rear bolt, do i set the pressure valve to 118 lbs? or do i still need a torque wrench?

No. You need a torque wrench to set torque. Some people use torque bars to set torque but there's no need for those unless you are on a high volume manufacturing line. Just use a torque wrench. On rare occasions, I will use a lower pressure when I want more control.

The only reason that I mention 90 psi is that almost all the impact wrenches out there are designed to be used with maximum 90 psi.

I have an Ingersoll-Rand unit that is rated for 600 ft-lbs, but I never use it. My cheapie Chinese made impact wrench rated for 450 ft-lbs seems to always work.

However, I would not skimp on the impact socket.

also i have a pancake compressor for nailing. do you think i could use an impact wrench with that compressor or would it be too weak to drive the wrench?

It doesn't take much to drive an impact wrench. I have a pancake compressor and it works just fine. The worst thing that can happen is that you have to stop for a while.

Don't forget to set the pressure valve to 90 psi.

Make sure you use a quality 6 point socket specifically made for impact wrenches.

Before you install the new plugs, go ahead and put some anti-seize on the threads (you'll appreciate it if you ever need to pull them out again). You can use dilectric grease on the top of the plug that connets to the coil pack if you choose. Once the plug is prepared place it in the 5/8 spark plug socket. I have read that some take the cushion out of the socket, I don't find this to be a great idea because for the rears you are working with weird angles and risk cracking the plug should the socket slip off the plug. Connect the socket to a 2" extension as the cylinder is deep (Pic 1). Your going to wanna install the plugs by hand first as to not cross-thread the plug into the head. Again, doing this by hand for the rears takes patience. Once you plug threads into the head attach the knuckle extension and then the 3" extension followed by the 3/8 ratchet. Go ahead and tighten the plugs in.

Good write up.

For installing the plugs, I've found that you can create your own flex extension by using a rubber hose that fits over the end of the spark plug. I use this to thread and seat the spark plug gently. Works surprisingly well.

I uploaded a product description, but realized there was a typo in the original description. When I tried to edit, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Cannot create references to/from string offsets nor overloaded objects in /home/pgdmpulc/public_html/forums/includes/functions_vbseo.php on line 3566

Can you add a Headers subsection under exhaust?

I wouldn't mind seeing more reviews on headers.

BTW... I fixed the gap issue by making a rubber spacer and installing it under the edge of the shifter surround.

The gap isn't a big enough concern for me to have the dealer fix it... especially in light of all the problems that people have been having.

However, I still haven't had a chance to install Jazzy's aux-in mod. When I do, I wouldn't mind fixing the gap if all it takes is a rubber spacer.

Would you mind telling us where you put this rubber spacer? And approximately what thickness did you use?

WOW!! My car looks exactly like this. I'll have to call the dealer and see if they'll fix it.

Thanks.
