After intallation : Hyundai Matrix Mountings and Drive Shaft

All ends well, I did an inspection once again to view the condition of the mountings and bushes, plus did a short test drive before the petrol light ON!

The drive shaft CV rubber boot, clean and no traces of grease.

Both side of the lower arm rubber mounting was replace..looks good.

New front absorber mountings are well place...

Forward engine mounting just behind the radiator

Engine mounting beside timing belt

Engine mounting above gear box

And finally, rear engine mounting near the steering rack.

Now my 6 year old Matrix feel like a new MPV...

LED 881 bulb for my Elantra fog lamp

There was nothing wrong with Phillips 881 bulb, its just that this LED 881 has been on my radar for quite sometime and finally I decided to give it a try. With a total of 13 smd LED..that should smack off the old Phillip 881 bulb.

Order it from ebay, arrived in 9 days and its from Hong Kong! It's emitting white bluish ray instead of the phillip 881 with white yellowish.

This is how bright the 881 led's...quite acceptable.

A closer look..

When compare the brightness between DRL and 881 led...the DRL is way much brighter.

As I have a DRL..the fog light wont be use most of the time. Its just that in term of colour, its not far different from DRL as compare with Philips 881 bulb. As an added precaution, I have stick some blue tac to prevent any water from sipping through the rubber gasket as this fog light does not comes with waterproof cover like on my Matrix. The rubber gaskets on the 881 bulb is not that realiable either.
