@Squeegee what size Derale are you running?

Bring your registration and license to your local dealership. They'll cut you a factory grade key based on your 80's VIN. This worked for me.

POR 15 or Rust Bullet work great. Sand, apply, and seal with touch up paint.

It sounds like your switches are worn out. It happened to mine. The plastic "pin" that pushes down on the circuit wears with age. I had good luck with these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/284945486810

@Ronald Rooij Are you saying the individual up/down switches are not functioning?

When you say pulsing, how aggressive are the pulses? ABS will be aggressive. A warped disc will be moderate. I had moderate pulsing, which was corrected by having my discs resurfaced. But, they'd pulse again after ~5000 miles. Finally replaced them with OEM and have never looked back.

Pictures would be great!

Looking at upgrading to a floating screen stereo. I don't want to drop the bank and was considering this unit. Anyone try one? Jensen CAR910X - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_110CAR910X/Jensen-CAR910X.html?tp=72381

Has anyone found a rubber molding alternative? There are so many rubber options available it seems there must be something out there.

Reviving this old thread for some advice. I just got my Prinsu and wanted to see how much of the rail acutually touch the rain gutter. To my surprise there are 1/8"-1/4" gaps is some locations. Mostly in the front and rear of the rails. My question is, did any of you have this issue? If so...

I had a Slee Harness installed and modified that. You can find the write-up here. Jumping the positive from the high beam may work but I am not sure about the load on that circuit. The Slee Harness utilizes relays which eliminates this concern.

That's a great mod. I highly recommend it :cheers:

Wire wheel it and paint with POR15 Chassis black...DONE! Actually, get an angle grinder with a wire wheel and it'll make quick work of the surface rust.
