Unless you like looking at that every time you get in the car.
Some pretty heavy duty rivets holding it

Does it cover the dead pedal or was it not sitting properly for this photo?

Only covers half of it. Not sure why but I think all of the "full coverage" mats are designed this way

Pretty sure I just broke it off with pliers. It's been a couple years but I don't remember it being too difficult to do. Might have even been just a flat head screwdriver I used.

My TPMS warning light lit up last night so I added a few psi. But my tire inflator is at my other house so I had to use a bicycle tire pump. Felt silly/weird pumping up car tires with a bicycle tire pump but pumping up tires 5psi doesn't take much time or effort. The most interesting thing was how hot the pump got. Since bicycle tires reach pressure very quickly, the pump doesn't really work so hard so it doesn't get warm. It's always fun to see low tech/level practical applications of theoretical stuff (physics, in this case PV=nRT) you learn in school...

So, MrDinkleman , how many houses do you have in California? Is the other house where your wife lives and you were at your mistresses house when the tire pressure went down? Don't they have air supply stations at the gas stations where your other house is? Oh, maybe the neighborhood is too rough to stop in there?

Sooo many questions ?? -

LOL "My other house" sounds more dramatic than reality. I bought a new house last year and I've been s-l-o-w-l-y cleaning/refurbishing it. Unfortunately my tools and stuff are split between the houses. Hope to move in a couple months then sell my first house to pay off my new house. Sorry. 😁😁😁

I finally have something original worth posting up here, but it was yesterday (I was too tired to post yesterday).

I drove from Chino to San Jose with my girlfriend's new pet bunny.
The poor thing was terrified at first .. living in a quiet cage and suddenly in a roaring car. It got comfortable after being held in a blanket though.

When I read FRS & Bunny in a “What I did to my car” thread I’m thinking:



Not:



This post belongs in the “Drove my car and did not crash” section.

Thanks! Not too worried about camber with this set of tires... If I get another 5-6k, I'll be happy.

Flipping tires, thats a trick I have used.

I don't know, but could my rear sway bar endlinks be too tight? I was not sure how long to adjust them.
Suggestions welcome! Thanks again!

What do you mean too tight? What symptom are you experiencing?
