Had to get rid of the white eyesore...found this on Craigslist and had it shipped.

Also ordered new armrest leather for 32 shipped on EBay....

Got a decent wash today.



Finally figured out that I could install these 194 Led bulbs once I removed the housing not just the lens cover...

Reading this makes me want to trade my SC300 for a GS300 and start all over honestly.

Long break I've had... Recently renovated a garage...now the GS and my 240's have a place to be worked on...

Finally installed the OEM color drivers door handle I had purchased... Broke the threaded clip for the unlock switch and had to get creative...





Also, removed the armrest to redo with the material I bought off ebay...

Probly going to pick up some Rit Dye to dye the fuzzy material where my finger is pointing at.

I went to a Texas Regional DPS office....only a few in big cities...
Luckily houston had one 59 miles away... Paid 15$
And told them the story about not being able to contact last titled owner:

They gave me 2 options

1. Appear before a county judge or court and dispute the issue to o tai the title (they make you send certified letters, and appear multiple times to prove the owner isn't responding)

Or

2. Get a surety bond. Which once paid and submitted you can go to the local tax or registration office and get the car in your name and the title will come in the mail.

I chose option 2 and the surety bond cost me 150. And I had the title in 2 weeks
