Good tip. Oh, I'm on it man. I've had the entire process playing over and over in my mine. I'm as fine tuned as The Clifford. I got this!

Well, I decided to tackle my wiper blade project. I worked at the passenger side for what seemed like 30 minutes (or maybe it was 30 seconds...something like that). Finally, I was able to give a sigh of relief when I heard that reassuring "click." Thinking the other side always goes easier, I was sadly mistaken. It felt like it took the same time. At least now I can say I'm done and precipitous frontal viewing has been restored.

I love it when I can complete a job like that...it make me feel like a real mechanic.

^^ You're going to pay someone to do it?

Man up and get under the car like a real man, and do it yourself it's not that hard

dropping the transmission isn't an easy task for a non-mechanically inclined....

Find a friend with a lift

I had the friend but no lift. I don't exactly recommend it, but it is doable with jack stands and a cheap transmission jack.

The forum might be a good place to search for some help. I know there are guys on here that would do the work, and many are probably more qualified than the idiots at the dealer or some sketchy repair shop. Though you're probably not going to get away with just some pizza and beer for the work
