They look like projector retrofitted OEM lights.

Unless you have a very large press, I used a deadblow with an appropriately sized socket to push the old bearings out. |

BAR Referee - California Smog Certification
To legally drive the car and register it in California, the engine change must be certified by the Bureau of Automotive Repair or BAR. This is a two part process which certifies that the engine change meets all emissions requirements. The first part involves checking that all documentation is correct and that the car has been prepared per the engine change guidelines. The second part involves a physical inspection of the engine change by a BAR referee and smog check. Part One - Phone Interview After scheduling a phone appointment with the BAR office, a BAR rep will call for a 50 minute interview to discuss the engine change. They will confirm that you understand the guidelines (https://www.bar.ca.gov/consumer/smog...engine-changes) and ask if you have any questions about the process. They will also ask you to email the following details:
*Most off the shelf scan tools can produce this (usually under a vehicle info screen or similar), however if you do take it to a shop you will need to explain what you need. This step confirms the ECM has not been tampered with and the programming matches a smog legal one. Upon confirmation of the above, the BAR rep will have you contact the BAR office again to schedule your in-person inspection. Part Two - In-person Inspection Once the inspection is scheduled, you'll receive details on what BAR Referee location to go to and what you'll need. Generally, they will ask you to arrive a few minutes early. They will then take your car in to inspect the engine change and also perform a rolling road smog check. The process can take up to two hours, so be prepared with plenty of fuel, oil, and coolant. They do charge for the smog check ($8.25 in 2023). Assuming everything was followed correctly and the car blows clean an engine change sticker will be applied to the car by the BAR referee, either in the engine bay or door jamb. And that's it! The car can now be registered and driven legally on California streets. |

i bought a quaife diff, going to try it, its basically a helical style but a little different operating principle, i have had a really bad clunk with the cusco 1.5 diff and it snapped my passenger axle in half from the vibration and shock it was outputting, i got a whole another trans i pulled apart and serviced with new oem seals and changed out 2nd and 3rd gear synchros and hubs as they were really boogered up looking. all the bearings looked basically like new with no scratches or scoring at all so im gonna reuse them
