What did you do to your 2002 today !

[BarneyT]

Rolled pass 10,000 miles on my Inka 73 Tii that I completed two years ago...

[2002Scoob]

That car is FAR too clean underneath, @BarneyT 

 

It's not fair. haha.

Pulled my brake light switch and determined it's pretty worn out, wasn't able to get get it cleaned up and functioning 100% so ordered a new switch from NAPA. Someone was kind enough to tell me my brake lights weren't working this morning at an intersection, now I wonder how long they have been out of commission.

Funny, someone was kind enough to tell me the passenger side brake light wasn't working this morning at an intersection.  I too wonder how long it had been out of commission.  

 

I pulled into the next parking lot and put one of my reverse lights in its place, since I did not have any spares on board.  I did find fuses in the glove box, but no bulbs.

 

Here's what I found when I pulled the bulb.

 

 

It looks like a drip of cold water fell on the hot bulb and poked a hOle in it.  (?) The hole was facing up.

 

I also found a lot of dirt in there, due to the fact that the little seal around the perimeter of the lens is toast.

Pulled instrument cluster and changed out one of the glass covers because of very small scratch.

Also changed out alternator instrument LED with a incandescent bulb.

Installed this today. Still some work to do, but this part is done.

Hi gentlemen, still busy with my total 2002Tii restoration. Yesterday I was ready to put a layer of black hi temp paint on the radiator when the idea to clean and polish the copper top and bottom came to my mind... What do you think? Should I paint it all black or just protect that copper with a clear coat and paint the central part with black? On the pictures, the bottom is no polished yet.

That engine bay looks serious!  Looks awesome.

 

But is it suppose to breathe out of the back of the radiator?

Nice! I assume you are referring to the airbox? What is the sensor - air temp? What's on the other side of the box, Webers or Fuel Injection? It looks like a fuel rail, but then I see a throttle linkage too.....
