Default thermostats

how hard are they to install?

and does it really make much of a difference?

is it worth getting?

thanks

piece of cake...takes some patiences getting all of the old gasket off the surface but other than that it's pretty easy. I got a 180* but I haven't driven my car long enough to see results yet (in storage for winter )

0...it will just keep you engine cooler (but yes you may see some gains over the stock 195 therm.)

IS it going to be a problem getting a 180 if i live up north where its freezing cold? I mean its not going to hurt the engine or anything with the engine running colder when its already cold. Probably a dumb question but idk. Thanks

shouldn't...i wouldn't get lower than a 180...it will just take longer for your heater to warm up...other than that it shouldn't affect anything
