Subject:      eyebrows (among other things)
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

got some of those chrome 'eyebrows' (for the round
headlights) from roy rogers while getting new spark
plug wires (old ones were..uh...bad...real
bad..)...the eyebrows serve double-duty. (tripe if you
thing of it right)

1. they look damn cool.
and
2. they help to bounce some of the light downwards
towards the ground, instead of aiming it all
forward,having the headlights up so high keeps them
from illuminationg the ground in front of you very
well. the brows make the light work more the way i
want it (as in shine more at the pavement in front of
me)
and
3. the front of the van gets illuminated in a rather
nice sort of way because of the way the brows bounce
the light downwards, the chrome bumper reflects some
of this back up and gives the front sort of a unique
glow... looks nice..
they stick inside the retaining ring,easy to
install,just snap this metal lip inside the ring,

and it doesn't run like such crap now that i got the
new wires..

also ,i've seen some alternative air intake systems,
where can i get something with a nice fat pipe to let
lots of air in, i noticed while removing the air
cleaner that the little rectangle inside the top that
lets air in is kinda small... anyone reccomend
something nice and big? and where does one hook up teh
mass airflow sensor in there wiht a replacement
intake?
