i saw several HKS kits for 25$ shipped on ebay, is it good for my 2010 LB yaris? will it improve the sparks and acceleration my yaris?

Yes it does help with the performance especially when you have hid kits installed I have to burn a ballast and two bulbs before I put one on I guess toyotas have issues with circulating electricity around. :)

And btw it will also give you good mileage on your car

i have my hid's installed, so should i unplug them first before i ground wire the engine?

thanks alot for your time brieghne

yes it help keeping the car to run smoothly if there's a proper grounding for the car. also check also all ground points for any loose bolts.

I did not feel this was 100% necessary, but I thought it cant hurt, so why not. So I went into my box of odds and ends wires, found some nice 10 gauge and went to town!

Well its funny, but the car is smoother. I'm sold! But I would not waste money on a goofy looking kit, when a handful of wire and some loops will run you less than $5.

Here's mine. It starts at the battery ground, then to the CPU, then right side tower(because of the available treaded hole), then a wire into the cab, to the crash bar, and one to the alt mount.:thumbsup:

That's pretty cool -- if you're going to do one, it is pretty easy to make. I think the kits look a little prettier, but your DIY way is far cheaper than what we sell. :thumbup:

If I can make my own for around $15 bucks I will do it. I get static shock from time to time, and my idle goes down when I roll my window down or up, plus running a (small) 400w amp. I'm sure extra grounding should help me out some how. LOL

Got 12ft of 8 gauge wire that's heat resistant, and gasoline/oil proof, and 10 gold plated ring terminals for about $15. So gonna ground some points tomorrow.
