I highly suggest saying yes to the last one.

I can vouch for the list save the last item. Since I am a middle aged man, maybe I should do the asking myself?

I haven't had to mess with the ambient temp sensor in awhile, I guess you'd need to extend it though.

For no reason, I remembered when my VW Squareback was broken into, packed for a weekend trip. The thief sat in the back seat and rifled through my underwear, not knowing that the rear seat cushion folds out, accessing two small wells, one of which held the car battery, and the other my $2000-worth of camera equipment. Guess what he was sitting on?

Well let's see where we can try and mount/ extend it? Maybe we can look at it when we do the clutch slave install

The app is free, but these features cost $20 to enable. It can also show CEL/ABS codes and clear them, and check to see if the each component of the car is ready for emissions testing.

in the glove box, cap on the 12v charger is exact fit for the sound tube under by footwell. If you ever want to close the tube just switch the caps.

if you double tap the accelerator in the automatic it will downshift and bring the rpms up

If you're in 1st or 2nd in a manual it will result in neck damage upon tapping the accelerator and forehead lacerations from the steering wheel when you left off the accelerator.

You can quickshift gears up and down with the automatic using the stick shifter in manual mode by not letting the stick return fully to the middle of + and - during shifts

This happens when youre distracted and accidentally downshift from 6 to 3 too and respond by letting off the pedal and forgetting whats going on.
