View Full Version : Plastic 'push button start' insert for xD..guess how much $$ tmrepp 04-17-2008, 10:56 PM Yep, that little round plastic insert that goes in where the push button start is on the JDM version of the xD...guess how much that little F*$&*$G thing costs.. 2_much_tc 04-17-2008, 11:00 PM $1k? tmrepp 04-17-2008, 11:02 PM Bad enough I'd say.. I drilled a hole in it for the LED that came with my alarm..not even thinking that I was going to want to change it down the road. Mainly because the LED is blue, and both my dad and brother pointed out that it looked like a cellphone or bluetooth headset sitting there blinking away. So, off to RadioShack I went and I picked up a few different LEDs..and the hole is too big for all of them. So, zipped up to Peruzzi to order the part..which I decided for $14 I'll live with a loose fitting LED for now. But what the heck, $14??? Sorry for lame punctuation..I'm ranting! ChelsDS 04-18-2008, 01:51 AM $14 for the plastic hole cover? Thats not that bad... try about $120 for the ABS wheel liner and the plastic screws/bolts for just one of the wheel wells :P That didn't cover the install either.. tmrepp 04-18-2008, 01:55 AM 14$ for a little round plastic piece. If i could match the texture of my dash I'd rig something. xDevious 04-18-2008, 02:19 AM hmm looks like a good reason to get a push button start! honey, if you are that destitute, i will give you the $14. :P did you start your job? it won't see like that much once you make that texas roadhouse money. can't wait to see your d in person! tmrepp 04-18-2008, 02:21 AM Yep, I am that much in need that I can't afford the $14 to replace it. Wish I could accept the money, but I can't. You'll see it in due time :) carguyphil 05-08-2008, 04:42 AM Haha ^^ x2 on the damn wheel liners, my tires ate mine like cookie monster n a...well you know what. Dude trav the led? Im sure u can figure out something cheaper but 14 really isnt that bad. haha Big_Jim 05-08-2008, 01:47 PM $14's not that bad lol. you could have probably gone and gotten a 5mm led, with a base for it and it would have fit right.

I was giving him advice. Theres LED Grommets that would work. tmrepp 05-09-2008, 02:47 PM What's up with the qft remark? That was uncalled for bencott 05-09-2008, 02:56 PM i think we have a misunderstanding of what "QFT" means. according to urbandictionary.com: QFT = Quoted For the Truth. Is used after a quote. States that you agree with this person. Usually used on internet forums. although i believe it started more as a way to hold someone accountable for what they type on forums so they can't go back and change their post/story. oh, and $14 isn't that much money. :P tmrepp 05-09-2008, 03:01 PM I don't want to sound frugal, I just have bigger things I need to pay for right now, especially my speeding ticket. Go ahead, flame me. People make mistakes, I realize I did and was holding back posting about it, mainly because I didn't feel the need to say. When I can afford it, I'll get it bencott 05-09-2008, 04:02 PM that's understandable. relax, man. i'm pretty sure no one here is trying to flame you. carguyphil 05-09-2008, 11:20 PM OMG u were speeding!? BURRRRNNNN hahaha tmrepp 05-10-2008, 06:05 PM OMG u were speeding!? BURRRRNNNN hahaha Lmao :loser: |
