They say you can use it to pull straight back but to be careful at angles etc.
But basically - yeah - jewelry. Easy to put in and take out. I mostly got it for the GoPro mount and look.

Oil change with some M1 EP 5w20 (forgot it calls for 0w20, but whatever) and a Purolator classic. A little bit early but I love changing the oil on this thing, especially with the Fumoto valve.

But... there's a new, somewhat concerning sound that sometimes happens around 3000-4000 rpm. It almost sounds like induction noise like from the noise generator, but it's clearly on the driver side and I plugged and removed the noise generator long ago. Did notice the mirror was rattly from one of the heater wires floating around from replacing the glass with wide ones. Hopefully it's just that and not something crazy. Can't reliably reproduce it yet.

I bought some of these https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...ent-light/639/ I unscrewed the factory lighting unit, popped off the "glass" and removed the blue led. I then used the adhesive backing on the dot to fix it the factory light housing and soldered the wires to the factory plug. $6.00 and 30 minutes later I have red footwell lights.

Not sure why they even have the blue light when the lights are all red in the cars. It can really confuse folks, more so when you have a WRB car. Nice to know you found a work around.

Got some LED's for the clear side markers since the stock bulb looked gross. I decided to get (2) for $12.. rather than (10) for $6 or whatever since I wanted them bright.

and OMG they are too damn bright



I love it though.
