    Currently installing new brakes. Going to get new wheels/ tires. Also, need to send out my airbag module. It has a light on all the time. I'll try looking for a place to send it that can tell me why its on and clear it. The dealer wants $100 just to look at anything. After that, need the bracket thats on the underside of the engine cover, time to visit the salvage yard again.

    Should both of my radiator hoses be extremely hot, upper and lower? I believe there is plenty of coolant in the engine and radiator. Took it for a ride, engine temp gauge reads normal.

    Well normal operating temp is around 200 degrees. What are u considering "extremly hot"? Id say anything 200 degrees is not gonna be fun to touch. Lol
