Default Made it out here, moved in

Hey guys,
I finally got out here and found a house at Cheyenne and 215. For the first time I have a garage for my car, which I'm definately happy about given the sun factor.

Unfortunately, I have to drive 30 min to Nellis every day- 215 seems to be the fastest way, but what's the deal with the lights between Aliante Pkwy and 95, it semms like every time I hit EVERY red light.

Is there a good place in town to buy cleaning supplies, specifically Vinlyex and Ragg top? If I could get them locally without having to order them, that would be sweet.

Is there a good Honda dealership around? I have a few things I need to get checked out (primarily a clutch squeak) and I don't trust myself to do it.

Thanks for your info, and I'm so glad to be here finally!

Jason

Dave, S2000NVegas, could probably help you with your clutch squeak. He recently installed a clutch in my S. Any other needs, call Dustin. I dont trust any of the dealers.

BTW...Welcome!

Ryan's right. The dealerships for the most part are jokes. Shack Findlay in Henderson is alright. Welcome to the area, and see you Wednesdays!

Wednesdays?

Also, saw a White S2k near 24 parked by 24 hour fitness at Cheyenne/Rainbow. It had a body kit (not sure which one) and cleared corners/side markers, and an exhaust (again, not sure which one) - anyone's?

Welcome to Vegas. I know exactly what you mean about the Aliante light on 215.

It's not just the Aliante one either, it seems to be all of them from 95 and on as you head east, oh well.

Any ideas where to buy cleaning supplies locally?

Yeah all the lights up there stink!

For vinylex I found it one of the local autoparts store like pepboys or check or something. I don't remember seeing ragtop in town only online. I've been using 303 and it works well, I got it from an outdoor recreation store here in Green Valley (R.E.I. in the district) I have been told that Clean Mart on Sahara has alot of this stuff.

Anything else your looking for? I might have some extra stuff laying aorund that you'd be welcome to use until you get situated.

For the dealership I've been going to Shack Findlay for all my stuff and they've been good to me but other peopel haven't had the same experiances. Let me know if you plan to go there and I'll give you my service advisors name.

Welcome out and hope you can make it to some Wed meets, the next one is kind of far from you but the drive is worth it
