Where did you get the ARC box from and the headlight washers. I would really appreciate the help . I know nengun has parts but was wondering if there is someone in Canada.

like i said previously in the thread, i don't like airbags so i deactivated them. didn't bother doing the extra wiring to make VSC work, i hate vsc as well, the green light is power mode, and the other light is from one of my reverse lights being burned out since my tail light keeps filling up with water. option racing won't return my phone calls to warranty these lights.

i'll eventually pull the bulbs for the vsc and airbag.
i gotcha...BTW i know what the power mode is.... i was talking bout the bulbs that arent supposed to be on

keep staying on option and get them warrantied
