I didn't like the tail lights on my car so I removed both lamps next to the reverse lamps. I feel like they are scattered and it looks busy. Anyway, the pictures below will show which lamps I removed. Excuse the pictures quality.

Did a complete interior detail yesterday and today.
Used a bissell autocare proheat to clean the carpets and used leatherique to recondition the seats and door leather. Still need to clean the headliner though and spray some chemicals to clean up the AC so it doesnt stink up when I turn it on sometimes

Had it towed :/

Was driving it along just fine, then the battery light came on, the radio turned off, the dash lights dimmed, power steering slowly became heavy, then the car sputtered to a stop and wouldn't shift to park. Luckily I had managed to make it to a Wal-Mart right outside it's tire/lube/express department, and had the guy check the battery, which he said tested good (was purchased 11/11) but was barely drawing a charge. Let the car sit for a few minutes, fired it back up, everything worked again - guy tested it again, showed it was getting full power and charging fine - put it in drive, the battery light came back on, and the lights all dimmed until the car idled itself to a halt. Figure it's got to be the alternator, so there's money I didn't want to spend, seeing as the 180k interval is approaching in about 6,000 miles...

Just put a new drive belt on it. Sounds like the timing belt is ok. You can still get get your coilovers.
