Good Sunday morning!

Thanks for starting today's blog Chris.

It was a nice day yesterday. Nice weather. Got to cut the grass and pull some weed around the patio. Hopefully if it's nice today or tomorrow, I can spread some fertilizer on the lawn.

Morning guys. Up and I guess time to get ready for church. I was going to hang out we some friends but passed out from exhaustion. Now I've been up since about 5 and I hope I can get a nap this afternoon. If not, tonight at work is really gonna suck.

So my '02 Grand Am now has a Monte/Impala part in it lol!
I saw an old post of someone on the Grand Am forum selling modified 3rd brake lights. The stock Grand Am 3rd brake light uses 3 large bulbs, if you take the circuit out of a '00-'05 Impala, shave the board just a hair, it fits PERFECTLY in the Grand Am light! Solder new wires down to the track the originally held the bulbs and heat glue the board in place.
This was a quick and cheap mod. Very happy with the out come. Since it does NOT have the additional difuser from the donor light, those LEDs are REALLY bright.

Here's the thread that gave me the idea:
LED 3rd brake light - GrandAmGT.com Forum

And this is NOT my pic, but it's what the thing looks like:

Good Morning EV1!
Chris:
Thanks for starting the daily Blog.

Lou:
Good to hear your finally able to whip that yard into shape!

Devin:
Thanks for the great weather reports in Michigan!
Had a Great B Day Celebration yesterday with my family.. My sister even flew in from San Antonio Texas! That was probably the best gift I could have ever received.... I haven't seen my little sister in Many Many years!
Looks like she will be staying here for at least a week...So, we made plans
to take her to Texas Road House for dinner one of these nights before she has to head home.

Jen:
Sorry to hear your not sleeping well... Hope things get better.
I remember when I was able to burn the candle at both ends... Not any More. I'm to old....

Jason:
Very cool Mod!

Good morning all. Had a fun time at the auction yesterday. Our car did sell but not on the block. I also found out that Velocity broke for commercial when our car went across the block which was a bummer (it was lot S206).
