  1. Yeah, my 05 LGT is still kickin around. I work from home so it has only added 2500 miles in the last 3 years or so. It's just hauling snowboards to the hill nowadays. I'll hang on to it until I need to daily drive something else, or give it to my kid in about 7 years as his first car. Still cleans up real nice though.
  2. I am also running DWS tires. Agree they have been very good. And a pretty decent value.
  3. Jerry's automotive in Waukesha gets recommended, I have used 2 guys automotive on hwy. 100 and cold spring road....they were great as well and are familiar with the Subaru folks around town. I am actually looking for new shocks/springs and new spark plugs later this year when I tick over 100k on my 05 LGT, and will take it to 2 Guys most likely.
  4. Ah, I think i caught him near "F" and Moreland a few weeks back, Black with a loud BOV a few cars behind me. After this weekend's projects I now have a BSM with a black roof in and around Waukesha. I used to see Franz here and there but my commute is a little different these days with all that shitty construction in Waukesha.
  5. I gotta do a "spotted" call-out....can anyone here claim the Dark Grey LGT Wagon, tinted all around and it looked a bit lowered? I saw it on Friday evening on HWY 100 around Sam's Club...
  6. I know exactly where that is....Thanks for the recommendation.
  7. I suppose I should dip back into this thread after the long (not really) winter. Silver 05 LGT in Mukwonago, work in Pewaukee, so i see the folks up and down making the commute through Waukesha. http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg850/scaled.php?server=850&filename=img20110522191352.jpg&res=medium so, to real business....anyone have a recommendation on a good shop in the waukesha-ish area? I generally wrench in the driveway as best I can, but I am going to take it in and have some pros give it the once over for the 75k milestone. Looking for new Spark Plugs, give the fluids the once over, and especially get the bearings checked....getting some grind turning the wheel to lock and a nice hot burning smell in the garage. Otherwise I will take it to Wilde....
  8. yeah, it is still going on. so weird that is is completely temperature related. in winter, when it is below say 60 degrees, the sound is gone completely. only when the weather warms up. i will be back to monkeying with it no doubt. i will definitely investigate the fuel lines..i am not sure where they would enter the firewall from inside the engine bay. from below? very annoying.
  9. well, one of my yellow fogs burned out already....so about 8 months or so. wonderful product.
  10. not sure where Swenson is, but I am up and down St. Paul heading to and from work. Live in Mukwonago and work in Pewaukee...05 BSM 2.5GT with tint and rally yellow fog lamps.
  11. well, I guess i never considered that. it looks fine and throws plenty of light all the same...but i suppose one or the other would have been fine
  12. here is the finished product: Finished my headlight project.... These http://store.candlepower.com/osraulhiouh7.html are the new headlight, 65 watt off-road rally lamps These http://store.candlepower.com/tugoseyeh355.html Selective Yellow fog lamps. Installed those last weekend. tonight, i finished it with a set of Lamin-X films over all the lighting....Optic Blue over the headlights, Yellow over the foglamps. throws bright, pure white HID matched light for about $100 all said and done. results: before http://lh4.ggpht.com/_BV2NnfAyPyY/S8p1x8Ni03I/AAAAAAAAKvc/s4008GgwjBU/s640/IMG_0444.JPG after: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_BV2NnfAyPyY/S8p11KUFJqI/AAAAAAAAKvc/Gc_EMbPSxFg/s640/IMG_0447.JPG http://lh5.ggpht.com/_BV2NnfAyPyY/S8p11y4DGFI/AAAAAAAAKvc/L4UVsUe08O0/s512/IMG_0448.JPG
  13. installed my pair of Osram Rallye and the selective yellow CPI fogs from Stern. looks great.
  14. I have jammed all kinds of different shit down into the dash at this point. Hard rubber, foam, started with cardboard and it has only gotten louder. I swear, mine is cursed. I am going to try to remove the drivers vent, then sink a screw into the firewall as close to that clip as I can reach and see how that will work. hopefully I can put the screw right into the clip to hold it in place. it is so pathetic that it has come to this.
