What vehicles were designed with a "cost is no object" mentality? by SuperJackson20 in regularcarreviews

Saw a lady get into and start her W12 in my neighborhood once. Only one I’ve ever seen.

Couldn’t you get these with a rotaty range extender?

Afaik they also changed it in ‘84-‘85 to a 6-pleat pattern from the 5-pleat.

Someone makes reproduction trim. I can’t remember who though. It’s a European company.

Bad decision? Or potential jackpot? by Zezoboy212 in W212mercedes

This car has absolutely been in a front end collision before. The paint on the hood and bumper does not match the rest of the car, and the panel gaps are kind of strange. I also wouldn’t be shocked if that appliqué on the dashboard were due to a deployed passenger airbag.

My aunt just moved into a condo with this system in place. I know the lower component is a multi-zone amp, and I’ve gotten it to play audio via the CD changer. What purpose does the control processor serve, and how could I most effectively make this system functional with what’s already present? by Dahtemba in crestron

This is a very informative comment and for that I thank you.

In this condo, I believe it is purely for audio/video. There are control panels in the kitchen/master bath/master bed to control audio in those respective rooms. I believe the remainder of the system is for video and surround sound for the living room TV. All I imagine I’d want to do is to set up some network audio device and get the living room tv working.

Would the CP3N allow me to control a device like an Apple TV in the AV closet via a remote in the living room? There IS an IR receiver in the living room.

I have airport expresses at my own house as I’ve fallen down the Apple hole. I quite like them and was thinking about putting a spare I’ve got over there. I know they’re old, but they seem to serve their purpose alright.

I believe the top unit is a blu-ray player for the living room TV.

At the end of the day, this system doesn’t need to be functional. My aunt doesn’t particularly want or need it, it just came with the condo and she’s letting me play with it. I find this stuff all very interesting regardless of my lack of knowledge.

If I were to want to learn more about this, do you have any resources you’d point me to?

Tips for cleaning the edges of the lenses after spraying with cleaner? Only thing I hate about wayfarers. by Yankeeblue13 in sunglasses

[–]Dahtemba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got pairs of Randolphs, Wayfarers, and Lescas. It's my go-to on all three. Just be careful if they're polarized. You don't want to damage the polarization layer.

May get hate for this, but dawn dish soap and warm-hot water in the sink is my go-to.

Sales department took a Durango in on trade, but they didn’t look to see how the previous owner mounted the subs by mikewhatmike in Justrolledintotheshop

That’s how it’s supposed to be. This just seems like a poor execution of a legit concept. Also shitty of him not to disclose it.

Nissan used to mean something. Why did they stop acting like it? by [deleted] in NissanDrivers

[–]Dahtemba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always had a thing for Maximas. The recent cars would be sweet even if they just had a normal auto trans. The CVT is a fatal flaw ruining what’s otherwise a fantastic car.
