I would think so but you get a better deal with the package.

Did you get hit for no plate on the way home from the meet? I read the cops were nailing people after leaving the park.

Comcast does internet by itself but they charge $10 extra if you don't have cable through them.

I think he has one of those "get out of jail free cards" from the state saying he is exempt from having it. I don't need one either since I switched to MI plates and insurance....and it is a lot cheaper for me too!

My bill for internet is $19.99 and $12 for cable (local channels also in HD) the only reason I got the 12 dollar cable is so I don't have to pay $10 charge for not running Comcast cable (better get something for that money than nothing). And they do have promotions at the moment, check out their website comcast.com

go on the website put your address and it will give you all the deals they have in that area

EDIT: oh, one thing I forgot to mention, I think they charge one time installation fee, but if you are good with computers they send you a self install CD and its really simple

No install fee for me but that was probably because I went with the package.

I was paying $90-95/mo at the apartment for Internet/Basic cable (1-99) after the "First 3 months at $35/mo" deal ended.

Ordered StopTech front and rear rotors from Corksport Still need to get new tires. I'm so damn slow at ordering parts but now I'm doing everything at once. Right now thinking about going with Hankook Ventus v12 evo k110.

well, soon as the deal is over you call for another, I'm on my 3rd deal for the past year and a half with the same price. you might have to speak to the manager though but it does the trick...

Any of you guys know what would happen, if I go to the dealer with the midpipe instead of the cat. As i need the latest MSP16 PCM Re-flash done. Obviously, the check engine light will come on and they will try to figure our why so they could fix it, and see that there is no cat.

Also, wasn't the old starter motor under recall or something, the dealer said no. I could swear I read people replacing them at the dealer. I could be wrong...

The rotors are $389.

If you have the OE cat then swap it back before taking it to the dealership.

Every dealership is different. If you have a CEL it just gives them an excuse to not work on your car or deny service.

if you are installing the rotors yourself, I wouldn't mind helping you, as I installed my rotors, brake pads, and lowering springs at once. It would've been nice if I knew you at that time...

If you don't have a cat I believe it's a possible felony

I will be installing them myself. It has been a while since I've installed rotors and an extra set of hands would be helpful! I will let you know when they are in.

Working on the taillights now. Both are in the bathroom and have a hair dryer propped up pointed at the drivers side taillight. Should be good to go in 10 minutes or so.
