Worked on the bug tonight. Got new H4 headlights and new smoked frt bumper turn signals installed tonight. Did order the rear smoked taillights, but they sent clear ones instead so next week I'll have the correct ones. Other than that I've got 80% of the new parts to install on the car, but can't get in gear to work. :shock: So this might be a long project. Also want to thank Ethan and David Saucier for helping me out on the motor. :thumbs:

Thanks guys! :beer:

I worked on the car yesterday between cleaning out the garage. I finished the frt brakes, stripped out the old carpet and while cleaning it out found this under the frt seat still in the package.
