That shelf is placed high enough you could have gotten at least a 77" or maybe even an 85" in there. Opportunity missed, but there is always the Spring time change....

Sounds dirty, but accurate.

I have an 82" with surround sound upstairs.

Chicken comes down first this spring.

Posting here since is unrelated to the twins. I'm trying to improve the light bulbs on my dad's Crosstrek. OEM it uses the shitty Silvana 12V 60 Watt PN 84920PA000. If I wanted to upgrade to LEDs, what should I do. I usally just get brighter bulbs but is better to just get something similar to what the BRZ has. So I'm not sure where to start. Do I just switch to LED bulbs or do I have to change some sort of assembly?

The Philips bulbs you listed are 9005s I believe. There are lots of direct replacement LED bulbs for 9005s nothing else required although you may want to adjust the headlight angle afterwards.

The only issue you may have, as with the 2013 FRS, is if it uses the bulb as a DRL. I had to turn off DRLs when I switched to LEDs because they were too bright since the car couldn't run them at half power.

Others will tell you that it's not a good idea to swap out the bulbs directly without making other changes if you have projectors. I was OK with just a straight swap taking into consideration the DRLs.

Yep. Next time change make sure your cock is out of the way before moving your hands forward.

Good thing it is detachable.

I'm taking a drive to the Asian market today to stock up on thanksgiving supplies. Broccoli beef is becoming our thanksgiving tradition here. Fine with me. Much easier than making a giant turkey dinner for 3.

- resetting your clocks was dumb, you're retired, what makes the difference what time it is?

So true.

Reminds me of once when we went to the lake years ago. We were there for a week before we realized the clocks were an hour off.
