Dang it Toyota!!!

Well, I got the neon, really nice car. Body kit, rims, system, full custom interior, had it for a week or two, traded it to my little brother and got the old 94 4Runner back. Missed that truck alot. Cold a/c, good runner, needs a bit of front end work, but, for the most part, its still beastly. Borrowed Jonny's trailer hitch assembly to pull the seadoos up to big bear next week. But yeah, the car stint didn't last long at all. I'll get some pics up of her current state saturday after work.

Oh yeah, didnt know where to start a thread at, off topic didn't seem to really fit. If its wrong, go ahead and move her, lol.

I think this thread title should be changed to "Different Interpretations of MO".

I learned new things!

Sorry havent been on for a few days, trying to track down a plug-and-play trailer harness for it. On another note, battery went dead cause my little brothers gf installed it with falling apart terminals, replaced them, replaced the battery with a buddys old battery. He didn't tell me why it was not in his truck anymore. It tests good, but loses power every once in a while, hit it with a wrench and it gets power and fires up. My vacation budget is slowly dissapearing, lol.

If anyone has a p/n for a wiring kit, let me know, or if you have wired one for trailer, let me know. I can install stereos all day long, lights all day long, but for some reason I can't seem to wire up a trailer harness.

thought I had pics of the neon, uploaded them directly to facebook, so not on photobucket. Not an srt-4 though. Check out my facebook for pics, im friends with yotatech on there.

All you gotta do is wire into the tailights; the turn signals will have dedicated wires L and R, there's one wire for running lights and brake lights, and then there's a ground. I don't know what kit BBP got, but the one I got is probably no different. I mean, they're pretty simple. And, yes.......it's easy.

2" ball?! Sounds like a minor case of elephantitis. Probably got it from driving that neon around.....

Keeping to the spirit of the thread, I thought I'd make a post too, since we're all "coming back"....though my 4runner is now collecting mass piles of pine needles, it still runs great!

Welcome back sean! I just lost a bet...with myself! I was betting you'd get over that car in a month, and it only took you a couple weeks, Lol!

Did I mention I accidently poked a couple holes in the dash board of the neon while you had it? Just throwing that out there....
