drove mine LEGALLY for the first time in a number of years. Finally got everything up to spec and passed emissions in Georgia for the first time in quite some time yesterday. Trip to the tag office and now I am running and legal. Feels great.

After I replaced my headlights, I followed the instructions in a Rennlist thread to upgrade my fog lights by replacing the glass and painting the inside silver so they fogs match the headlights...if you know what I mean.

Steven-

Thanks for the response. I'm going that direction having just bought lenses from Foxman. Hopefully, I have the same experience
you had with the fix.

I'm going to paint inside the reflector also.

I did the end of year dance with the annual NC safety & emissions inspection, registration & property tax mamba. NC recently passed legislation exempting 20+ yr old vehicles from annual inspections but not in all counties and mine (Wake) was not exempt. I fully expected the complete inspection and made sure the CEL (SAI issue) was off and all flags had been reset. Check. Took it over to the local Jiffy Lube on 12/31 and almost before I sat down in the waiting room, they were calling me up to pay my bill. This is never good. Long story short, I only needed the $13 safety inspection. As I was checking out, the Tech explained the new law and was a little relieved because the CEL came on during the inspection and glad it was not something they did.

Happy New Year all.

You guys are lucky - TN requires emissions for anything 1975 or newer.

Always good to see another 993 in Raleighwood!

No SAI for me since I have a '95, but the less expensive inspection is still nice. Now if only the State would return the "Antique Car" designation back to 25 years...
