^ I used a screwdriver on mine and I used a soft towel to place behind the screwdriver to avoid damaging the dash. Worked really well. Just be careful. But do this only if you don't have a trim removal tool.

I watched a golf ball sized chunk of dirt/rock fall off a truck in front of me and one lane over and followed its entire flight path. It hit my hood and windshield in quick succession, scratching both

Installed 18" resonators. Its so quite now !!

But on the plus side it sounds better! When the pipe was really cold above 4k there was a little rasp. Also down shifting and stuff there was a gargle and now there is neither. I was going to wait to install them but I know test pipes would have only made it worse so now when I get test pipes ill be able to see if I need two more resonators installed in the TS.

Greased my poly bushings on my sways. No more squeaks. Should have done this on install but had to wait an extra few days for the grease to come in and I was impatient. Can pretty much do this without the car on jacks, so it was no biggie.


Also found this guy on Instagram.

Hey, Critical,

Please share the source and type of grease you used, my '09 should be just about due for that treatment also.

Thanks!

Hi critical,

I'm stock, and thanks, I didn't even know such a thing existed. For years I've been using silicone spray! never did much good for very long.
Appreciate the tip!
