I know Bruce is a honest and fair man.  If something was ever wrong with
this car, he had it fixed, no expense was spared (except for a new wastegate
diaphram, but you have to admit buying a whole wastegate when only the
diaphram is bad is excessive!).  The repair bills over the years are several
inches high.  I'm a little bummed about the pulsing because I don't have
time to fix it right now (or even time to drop it off with my mechanic) so
in the garage it sits!

appeared on the '85-'87 4ksq and gt coupes (single big light with yellow
marker lights).

 And, are these lights actually euro-lights or are t

I have a set of the euro quad lights as well.
