It's creek blue mica. We don't like it very much when someone gets that wrong.

lol agree :D

I just realized I could have been using the speedo ring gear spot to fill my tranny instead of having to pump it in through the bottom!! It's always such a pain doing it that way... :x

It takes about 10 minutes to get in from the top, just remove the battery holder plastic
and then the fuel filter bracketry. Invest in a flexy-funnel too, saves the mess.

Really?! I reckon it looks very blue, not even slightly purple... That was the colour of MX I was hoping to get, either that or the really dark blue-green it also came in...
Nice work on the service, too - workin it like a pro ;) (and yes, there is more than just a hint of jealousy there haha :mrgreen: )

I installed a block heater and a new thermostat today, can you see the interesting thing about
the thermostat I installed? The stock heater cover was a PITA to get off...

Went to PnP with Calg93 today, got some protege goodies:

Steering wheel, e brake handle and shifter knob. Modernizes the interior quite
nicely and the wheel makes such a difference. Wiring is quite simple, horn and
cruise control both work.

Also installed a space saver type subwoofer with a built in amp, no trunk space
was sacrificed in the process:
