Nothing you guys haven't already seen but I figured I would post these anyway.

I just took these real quick cuz it was raining. Didnt want the camera to get too wet. Ill have some better pics once its clean and the sun is shining.

Oh yeah, anybody know where I can get some decent floor mats for this thing? It didnt come with any. Id rather not ruin my carpet, and I dont want to use those cheap generic things you can get at the local parts store or whalemart.

Haha Whalemart, stupid fatty's.

If you want OE's just try a dealership.

Misfire on number one. Coil was just plain dead. It was floating in oil. I cleaned out the oil and drove it around for a few days, checked it again today and there were just a few small drops of oil down in the plug wells so I decided it wouldn't hurt to put in a new coil on #1 before I swap the VCG's. I had codes on 2 and 7 as well, but they haven't come back since I cleaned it out. So its good for now, but I need to swing by the Linc dealer tomorrow and order the gaskets.

Was gonna ask about those tomorrow. They're probably realy expensive though, the ones we sell are (about $200 for a set), but that could be just because they have the Mercedes star on them I dunno.
I was thinking more along the lines of an aftermarket set that I could customize. Get em with LS embroidered on the sides or something with a little Lincoln emblem. Id be a little more willing to pay big bucks for a customized set than big bucks for factory. :P

congrats, nice looking LS.

If you get floor mats, I highly recommend the OEM rubber mats for the LS. You can find them on Ebay from time to time, you will never have to worry about dirt again, you can just rinse them off and they go back to new.
