    What did you do today....other than work on your car!?

After testing the lifts with wifes car I got...

    Ballast Resistor- how hot is too hot?

    Thanks for the replies guys. I was concerned it might damage the paint on the firewall. Was considering installing a spacer between the firewall and resistor, but according to twecomm, the firewall helps dissipate the heat.
