Basic Car Maintenance - Tire Checking

What’s the best coin to use to gauge whether there’s enough tread left on your tires?

• A. Penny
• B. Nickel
• C. Dime
• D. Quarter

Your answer should be D. Quarter.

You may be familiar with the penny test: Stick a penny in a groove head-down, and part of Abe’s head should always be covered. The penny test proves that the tire has 2/32" of tread, the legal minimum in most states. But at that level, your tire's ability to cope with rain -- not to mention snow -- is dramatically reduced. If you're going to be dealing with wet stuff, you need more tread. Use a quarter instead. If George's pate has some coverage, that's 4/32", a safer margin.

Aftermarket Headlights - Projector Headlights & Euro Crystal Headlights

Projector headlights and diamond-cut euro crystal headlights are among the most popular aftermarket head lights to replace or upgrade the dull yellowish OEM factory lamps. Projector headlights are lights that "project" light beams therefore they are brighter and can light up the front road farther than the factory headlights ever could. Diamond-cut headlights are bright euro crystal lamps that offer a little more in the style aspect being that the inside of the light is carved somewhat like a diamond thereby offering the ability for the light to shine off multiple surfaces. Available in either chrome or JDM black housing, KingSource's aftermarket headlamps are usually coupled with angel eyes or CCFL halos and L.E.D. (Light Emitting Diode) lights, the latest innovative technology in auto accessory industry.

Aftermarket headlights will not only improve ones' overall night driving experience but also offers a whole new look that can set a ride apart from all the rest. Most aftermarket lights are an easy plug and play installation that can be done by almost anyone with a little mechanical knowledge and are manufactured to comply with current DOT/SAE standards making them a true "no hassle" upgrade to your current car.

KingSource's after market headlights are updated at a regular basis. Please come visit our online store often for your headlight needs for performance or replacement. *Due to DOT regulation, headlights with amber reflector would be shipped without prior notice whichever applied.

Power Side Mirror Installation Guide

Warning: We recommend that you have a professional installer to do this job for you if you don't have any ELECTRICAL experience before!!

Power Mirror Installation Guide

At the plug where your Factory Power unit was plugged into, test with a logic probe or power probe, which wire has 12 volts on when you adjusting left. This is the wire that you will need to connect the RED wire then find the ground wire (connect to the BLACK wire) for it from the factory harness. When you adjusting to the right, those RED and Black wire should be reversed. Repeat the last step again for up/down and then connect the WHITE wire to it.

For the LED light that use as turn signal option, you will need to get a RELAY kit for easier installation without damage/affect factory wiring harness.

TIP: Many power units have a plug that you can cut off and wire to your new power unit so you can plug it directly into the factory plug. Use this method if has a plug that you can cut off.
