I was in a morning meeting once about three weeks ago, and brought up the browser on my phone. This was back when Nigella Lawson was a hot topic due to her husband putting his hand on her throat in public, as if to choke her out. Wouldn't you know my browser had a picture of Nigella big and proud (emphasis on big) and it perked up someone's interest with a loudly proclaimed "Whatcha got there, Brant"??!! Ohhhh man!!:eek:

I suppose whether they fix the 370 or not is dependent on what code it's throwing. Do you know what it is already?

I've been slacking big time. Have other things going on and they've been giving us a few things to do at work too. :tup:

Hey jar I was trying to do a search on a DIY you did (I think it was you) but came up with no results. But wasn't it you that painted your side markers recently?

Trying to find the DIY for removal.....

Yup. In fact, I remove them every time I wash the car since it's so easy. There are two tabs that pinch outward to hold the side markers in place.

Being careful not to scratch the paint, slip your fingernail under the marker at the point closest to the front of the car. Push the side marker sideways towards the back of the car. This should release the tab, allowing the front edge of the side marker to pop out where your finger was located. It should pop out either on its own or with just a little leverage using your finger. When I unplug the harness, I just let it fall back into the fender, so I often have to use a tool to fetch it when reinstalling the markers after a wash.

yes and yes :icon17:

The first few times I took them off, I noticed a lot of dirt under them and didn't want to scratch up the paint when removing and reinstalling them. Also, the first time I waxed, I got it all over them and it was a pain to clean up after the fact. Removing them solves both of those problems and is way easier :tup:

kenchan 07-15-2013 12:00 PM

sounds good mr.jar. :tup: i hate polish dust getting in to the nooks.
