who's that? What'd he want?

He wanted the rear disc brake setup so he could convert his rear drums to disc. I have everything he would need from my parts car. I tried PM'ing him and it kept failing. He did post "he would hightower headlights in exchange" if that helps any.

What does it mean to "hightower" headlights, is that polishing?

If it's who I'm thinking of, he's got a wife on here too. You could try her but I've heard she's evil...good luck

To "Hightower" the headlights means to cut them apart then paint the chrome black or body color then reseal them. It's named that because he was the first to have the balls to cut up a set of headlights.

I'm really surprised that some of you have been on here for three years now and never heard of Hightower headlights. It was the first aesthetic mod available for the 98+ lights IIRC.

Hightower headlights (click for higher res version):






Chris and his wife (original handle "Mushu" .. dunno her real name) are on these forums a lot. However they've both changed their handles several times in the past year so it's extremely difficult to search to find them for you.

You might want to ask your doctor to adjust your dosage. Either that or just get some decaf.
