If I'm not mistaken, he's looking for pictures of thirdgen cars, with fourth-gen (ram-air) hoods, with the lights up.

Redraif's GFX on the front and rear are 84 TA...they fit fine on the stock Firebird bumper covers.

It looks like he wants Ram Air II, not Ram Air I, however I still like looking at your ride, since the RA1 hood is far supior looks in my mind...

The Ram Air I hood looks a lot better on 3rdgen T/As than the Ram Air II hood.

that's so EASY!
on my GTA you just quickly stab the off button, so they turn off, but you don't hold the button down and so the lights won't retract. geez

Offhand I can't remember for sure, but don't you just hit the on botton then the off button quickly, so that you hit the off button before they're fully open? I think they stay open that way...

i just turn them on then pull the top part of the button back and it leaves the yellow lights on but the headlights off. its great for when you want to warn oncoming traffic of radar because when you do that the rear lights stay on wether you flashing your headlights or not (so you dont get in trouble for warning oncoming traffic)

That is a sweetiepie of a hood and I love the bird where it is. I had the same idea but using it on my Formula instead. And in Red. The only way I know of keeping the headlights up is to turn them on and then cut them off, but leave the running light part of the switch on so they stay up.

i speed all the time (sometimes people arent paying attention to their speed and are speeding by accident) but i never speed though school zones or cluttered towns. i appreciate when people give me the warning so why not return the favor

anyways back to my topic... anyone got n-e more pics?
