New cars won't come out with black lights I don't reckon. Chrome tail lights is kind of the style with cars that have good fuel efficiency, and carbon neutral, which probably is the explanation behind it

notsureifsrs

Very serious, Prius Camry all of them a chromies. Even the aurion

I would think its more of a Toyota general styling cue.

But hey if I'm wrong and chrome tailights are supposed to be a representation of fuel efficient/carbonn neutral cars I'll shout you a beer at the next meet :P

Huh? Chrome started with the Lexus Altezza...from there it grew into a massive aftermarket of chrome tail lights for other makes and models, then the other manufacturers responded to the trend by beating customers to the chase (Holden dealers sell chevy badges now) and fitting them to their "sporty" hatches and mid sized cars etc. Don't know where the green connection is :/

I always thought of it as a connection. I don't see the 370z with chrome, where as all the fuel efficient/greenies seem to.. I don't know maybe just my observation but keep an eye out for a couple of days ull notice too

Not all sports cars will come with them, in fact, it's usually the cheap imitation sports cars like sporty hatchbacks...Mazdas, Mitsubishis etc.

Lol @ ufo i've been watching countless documentaries on them and on ancient aliens/technologies. Not convinced but I love watching that shit along with any archaeology spec docos

Are we alone? Who knows? Probably not, but don't think I'll meet an Alien in my lifetime. Interesting stuff none the less.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
