Can you elaborate on how you had to make the tool? I'm about to do this and want to go into it prepared for those 4 bolts, rather than get there and start having to brainstorm what to loosen, move, cut down, etc.

Cut down a TORX bit to about 1/2” in total length used with a 1/4” ratcheting combination flex head wrench.

Replaced the Stabilizer Links, almost forgot how smooth this car is, all the steering wheel rattling is gone, no more knocking sounds on bumps.









One simply just fell out when we tried pulling it out, that's how bad they were.

Yesterday I put on a coat of Nu Finish. The once a year car polish. Looks great! Going to re clean the interior with the McGuire's interior cleaner.

took it out tailgating over the weekend with the 2 small trunk lights on the whole time and didn't even crank longer than usual and started right up.

let me know if you guys know if theres a way to turn off the all the lights with a switch. the front upper switch between the visors don't turn the rear trunk lights in the hatch off.
