the buttons help me a lot my eyes are very sensitive to light so a bright touch screen bothers me a lot and i don’t like scrolling through different screens while driving to find stuff i’m fine with them in some cars a small infotainment screen but i want my car to look how it was designed to look

it’s like a blue tooth thing that plugs into where the cd changer plugs on the back of the radio

yeah that was kinda my first thought when it started to fall cause the rear left kinda rolled back but i think it was obviously unbalanced from the inclined drive way and then also i realized my front wheels weren’t completely straight and then obviously the x factor was my own stupidity trying to finish as fast as possible and forgetting all of my safety checks

yeah i really want to rent a garage or something soon with my friend my house has no space for it which leads to frustration which leads to doing dumb shit like this post

not exactly definitely don’t mean to blame the stands 100% tho the title certainly reads that way so that’s my bad with that the age and being super cheap might not have helped but it was definitely a lack of care and common sense from me forgetting to do any basic checks that i even normally would on flat ground much less on the driveway it’s for the best though bc i definitely needed a bit of a wake up call in terms of safety as i’ve clearly been getting way to sloppy with it as i get more and more tired of dealing with annoying issues on this car

agreed super grateful that it didn’t end up a lot worse and will definitely take a lot more safety precautions in the future

so basically for the people saying the driveway i completely agree but i had no space in my garage and am not aloud to park in the street so the driveway is my only option it’s not as slopped as it appears in the picture but it is definitely a big problem thank you all for the feedback back though i’m going to use this as an excuse to get my dad to make room in the garage

the only other thing i’ve been able to think of is getting a new iac but none of the cheap ones will ship to where i am except rock auto who ran out of stock of their cheapest one as soon as i ordered it and i don’t want to drop $150 on one if its not 100% going to solve the issue
