Yep, looks like an FA20 to me, based on what I can see. The oil filter is pretty much a dead giveaway, combined with the DI.

If you can, go to a credit union. One where you're established is even better. I financed 90% of the car for 1.69, but I have a 740 and a killer job. I'd guess you'd be in the 3% range if you played...

oh god... just... no. :barf: at least personally, I'd rather have my car fully fixed than have it be a rolling pile of bondo and tack welds.

map dimming w/ headlights does work properly, but you have to use the adjuster next to your headlight angle adjuster to put the HUD in anything-but-brightest setting.

That's all the way into the plastic. Gonna want basic touch up if you're going cheap, or a respray/blend from a body shop if you really want it fixed back to new.

I think most people use this for bike racks or very small trailers that don't require lights. If you were to wire for a trailer, I assume you'd have to tap the lines going to the tail lights.

That is designed to work when the ignition/accessory switch is on, unlike a trickle charger. It is still possible that a trickle charger won't work while the car is fully off.
