Thank you for the information...even though it's quite disturbing!!!
 
On a good note, I found a local BP station that doesn't have any "ethanol" stickers on their pumps. So, I filled up and I have noticed a bump up in my fuel economy.
 
10% ethanol murders fuel economy, 15-20% would simply obliterate it.

I fond some led strip lights that would make great halo lights for the Azera..They're 14 inches long and are flexible ....The only problem I have is that I can't get inside the headlight assembly...The light strips are flexible with a peel off backing....they come in red,blue and white ....I don't really want to install them on the outside of the headlight assembly...I'll let you know if I figure anything out...BTW, did you get everything taken care of on your '06 the dealer??? the forum has been quite lately...

101649...
 
I know about those LED strips you are talking about, only problem is...you will need more than the adhesive backing to keep them in place. If you want something that will be more durable and stay in place...KAI has something that works perfectly...

As far as getting inside the headlight housing, you have to take the whole housing out and bake it in an oven at like 250 degrees for a few minutes to soften the adhesive sealant. Here's a link to a tutorial that will show you exactly what to do:

The 10% is a maximum level and it is for all gasolines sold by that dealer.
Proximity to corn country no longer determines the amount of ethanol. I live in S.C. and a railroad and private oil company have formed a partnership to bring in up to 200 railroad tank cars of ethanol each week. It comes from Iowa right now. They are parked next to a major tank farm for several gas companies. The ethanol is added to the tank trucks as they leave to reach the "up to 10%" level.
    Plans are to build holding tanks for ethanol and to "import" more.
   I'm sure other locations in the nation have similar facilities. In fact, I believe this particular oil company was choosing between SC and New England when the railroad stepped forward to become a partner.
   Google Greenville and Western Railroad or Lincoln Oil in Greenville SC for more information, but it is from their biased viewpoint.

Bob, you are right about 10% being added everywhere. But few years ago when the logistics for Ethanol manufacturing & transportation were not in place, the proximity determined the Ethanol blend. These days, however, it is a fact that Ethanol is being added throughout the country because of the mandate.
 
And now the Ethanol mafia is plotting to raise the limit to 15 to 20%. And as usual, the public would be fleeced for the benefit of the few well-heeled mafia corporations.
 
Your congress & govt folks. The best form of government that money can buy. Dems or Repubs, they're all the same.

Only way you could mess it up is if you turned the oven on too high when baking it open, but I understand. Good luck with coming up with an alternative.

can i splice into the parking light harness and use a jumper to hook up the driving lights so they will be on with the parking lights....as you know, they only come on with the headlights
i guess if i did, i would have to keep the driving light switch in the off mode to keep from sending too much current to the bulbs when the headlights are on...your thoughts....

101649....to be honest, I do believe that would work and like you said, just leave the fog light switch in the off position. Just be careful that you tap into the correct wire so your fog lights don't blink when you use your turn signals.
