If you don't wanna change your oil for a good while, go synthetic (ppl have their own oil dedications, Mobil 1, Purple, etc, Eneos is a new brand I've been seeing around, even had a booth at the Anaheim D1 show last weekend). Of course this is a bit more pricey than regular oil, but it's worth it.

PJosh, if I dont want to go with synthetic oil, what do you recommend for 3000miles or 3mths oil change?

I've always gone with Castrol Syntec with previous cars. Ive only had my G for a month now. I think I may go with Eneos, dunno how much it is, but I'm sure it's worth it.

I just got done installing a pair of cold cathode lights under my dash this weekend.
Will be writing up a DIY with pictures sometime soon. Want to get a good feel of the innards of the interior. Still have to install a pair under the seats, just gotta plug em into the power converter I already installed for em. I put my switch in the spot between the butt warmer buttons, there was just a spacer there that I modified to put an OEM looking switch (with LED) into. What was frustrating was that the led in the switch was made for the switch to go onto a positive line. I always put my switches on the ground line of my mods. But opening up the switch to change the polarity on the led was a piece of cake. Tapped into the OBD-2 power line for a hot when off circuit because the interior lighting will be hooked up to the door sensor wires so they can light up the car whenever I open the doors.
If anyone wants some under dash and under seat lighting installed, I work for cheap.
Pics will be up tomorrow (new thread) when I finish the seats and the connection to the door sensor wires.
