He wasn't happy with the stuck-on wood trim, so he's having them cut and install 2x4 planks into the dash. Pressure-treated, of course.

What type or brand of HID headlights are you going with? I have been on the fence about this mod with the plug and play types because our cars don't have the projector lens they need.

I heard I-90 had the same problem yesterday for a while, traffic came to a halt near O'Hare because of flooded viaducts, people were stuck in traffic for about 2 hours or so.

Morning guys,
Well you guys to the west got all the rain and we got all the wind yesterday. Power at the house went out at 1:30 yesterday and was still out at 5:30 this morning. They said over 100,000 customers are without power over here. My weather station registered a peak wind of 57 mph at 2:00 pm. We lost 2 -40 foot tall pines and a Bradford pear tree at least. Some aluminum fascia came off of the house also. I guess that was Ike blowing thru. Karen was loading up all of our coolers to go find ice to try and save stuff in the freezer and frig. They say it could be a couple of days yet without power because a bunch of the line crews headed south toward Texas to help out down there.

Glad to hear everyone is doing OK... we had strong winds around 45mph. Didn't really lose anything, just made a heck of a mess.
