Had car go into ews screw you mode and it wouldn't clear. Checked voltage and it was fine, tried again same same GI so I checked voltage again and it died... (new battery) opened the back and low and behold, the battery place had broken the stud!! Luckily I happen to know many bad words in Arabic so off I go parts shopping.

Got sick of waiting for Bilsteins to come into stock so took advice from AussieXer and ordered a new bag only as an interim repair for the wife's collapsed front strut (blown bag) on the 4.8is...
Removed the strut in a few minutes... easy peasy... then the old bag is seized on the strut shaft.... Surgical removal with hammer, rotary penetration tool and rotary scalpel... Two hours of utter frustration... but got it apart in the end and now contemplating the put back together over a Corona... I'm calling it an even fight so far ....

If there are some scratches after the film eventually does need to come off... then I guess it will have to get painted again. What are you gonna do? At least it will give me 10+ years of majority protection Was it this one? If so, I'm not sure how I feel about it. :

Just a heads up on Bilsteins as I got an email from one of the places I buy from PRICES ARE GOING UP. I think it was like 15-20%
They said order now and the would ship if in stock, if out of stock they would still honor the price and ship once in stock. I have been very happy with the Blau Shocks that I put on 5yrs ago and are still in great shape

Smart! I figured I would get some use out of them while I was waiting for my new set of tires to northeast delivered: bad move! Made it about 100 miles before one of the unused spares completely self destructed at 75mph on the freeway. At least I had the "just in case" thought to put them on the back axle.

Installed the back up camera in preparation of the upcoming Android HU install.
Will try to wrap the wire with red tap or something. Can't be seen when closed though...
