    Broken stud

    I hope you aren't driving with it like that because that is dangerous. I can't imagine it's cheap because aren't they connected to a whole part where the roters are? I don't know what it's called.

    Headlights Are So Clean

    I'm having that same problem with the headlights on my Altima with a thin layer of film. I don't know how to get inside the covers though because they aren't like my old car where I could unscrew them from the outside. I might have to ask a mechanic if I want to get them cleaned.

    Plate over the heater controls broke

    You could always try tape. :nerd: It might be expensive to replace if you have to change the whole piece so maybe something like super glue would work so that it doesn't show?

    Driving music

    I must be behind the times, but they have remote controls for regular car stereo's or is it something like satellite radio? That sounds really convenient. I loved when my radio controls were on my steering wheel.

    Driving music

    I like a lot of music, but I tend to favor 90's rock and alternative when I'm driving. That's what most of the cds in the car are. I will listen to some country and salsa on the radio too.

    Replacing a dashboard

    The junkyard does sound like the smart and cheaper way to go, especially with that step by step instructions and tip you just gave me the link for. Thanks a lot Maximum!

    Keyless ignition

    But how would the key be in the ingnition if you are remote starting it from inside the house? You leave the key inside the car? Alexus, you know it's very easy to break a window and get in a car. A simple rock will do.

    Bikers

    My friend does one of those charitable rides here as well. I think that's pretty cool of them. When I think about it, I don't get nervous if a bunch of bikers are heading towards me. They usually don't even look at you like some people in cars who seem to want to start trouble. The only...

    Using an Ipod in the car

    Well, it depends on the car Hotrod. I use to lease a brand new Altima and it came with an auxillery outlet where you can plug the Ipod in and it plays totally clear. But I drive and older model now so it doesn't have that outlet. I don't know guys. That device just doesn't work well for me.

    Bikers

    I use to be under the impression that bikers where all a bunch of guys with bad attitudes and not friendly at all. I guess I watched too many movies. I was able to go with a friend of mine that rides, to a place near the beach where it's basically a biker hangout and restaurant. Not only was the...

    Cracked windshield

    Even if it is legal, don't you think it's pretty dangerous. What if something happened and you were driving and is some how shattered or just flew back in your face? You don't want that to happen. I didn't even know it could break doing what you explained. I grew up in the north and never saw...

    Using an Ipod in the car

    That's the exact device I was just describing in my post. I was looking for something more reliable and maybe a newer technology. Those devices you just mentioned don't play back clear for me. Most of the time it's horrible reception.

    Tis the season---of waiting

    That's odd because they tend to let go of the excess people in January from my experience when I worked at a department store for a couple of years. Are sales really booming or something for them to still be hiring?

    Preventing Damage To My Grille

    I don't know if I've heard of that thing. Is it those loud horns that sound like a freight train? I hate those things because they scare the heck out of me. I don't know how to stop people from doing things to your car. People always open their doors and bang the car next to theirs. Or if you...

    Car sales up

    Maybe all the people that use to have expensive mortgages now have cheaper rents so now they can afford to drive new cars. I know I got slammed in the price of the condo I bought at 230k and wound up short selling it for only 53k.

    2012 Detroit Auto Show

    I've been to the show there in Detroit with my brother, back when I lived in Grand Rapids. I think it's the best one I've been to out of the three I've done in my life. There is a reason it's called the Motor City. :smile:

    Cold air under steering wheel

    There could be some kind of hole or opening to the outside where your engine is. Is the car a newer car in good condition? Or like Alexus said, it could be a vent. You sure you don't have the vent for the floor blowing out air?

    Using an Ipod in the car

    I bought this little device a long time ago that plugs into my Ipod to use it in the car. The way it works is that you have three radio stations to pick from and use to get the reception or something. The problem is that it's never clear and they never give good radio stations that stay with...

    Tis the season---of waiting

    I can't stand going to Walmart during any time of the year, let alone Christmas. Target is usually more clean and the customers aren't as rude and pushy as I've come across in Walmart. If I do go there, it is always at the least busiest time. I went to the mall to get some food the day after...

    Close Call Last Week

    I've had plenty of near-misses happen when I was younger and lived in Michigan. One time I was coming home from work and I was going really slow but it didn't matter with all the ice on the road. I tried to stop at a light but I kept going and had no control. my car literally spun around 360...
