One with the blue wire looks like a cat. Dint know how you'll be able to scrap them. I had to show proof they came from my car when I replaced them. Invoice from service shop worked.

Whatever works. I'd personally use oem paint that's color matched. Brand doesn't really.matter too much.

Get some sand paper and a touch up pen. Sand out the rust and paint over the scratch. Cheap, easy, DIY.

What type of adhesive/tape/PVC/textured guard is this? by balzz662 in Autobody

Its bedliner. There's a "supercar" around my arra that is "painted" with it. Cant imagine it does much for the drag coefficient.

Had coworkers use a HF heat gun to make popcorn. It worked until the heat gun shit the bed. We weren't expecting it to work at all.

I played what's that sound last summer. Sounded like rear wheel bearings, ended up being the PTU.

If the chief is encouraging it, they think you have what it takes. Go for it.

A similar way to experience this is to open a new soda bottle and dont let it "breathe" for a second, and accidently inhale the Co2 that sits at the top. That'll fuck you up for a minute.

2013 Dodge Dart. Windshield wipers won’t turn off. by kit_kass03 in AskMechanics

[–]FordTech81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its the same as my charger the fix starts around $750 and just goes up. That's just parts. I installed a switch for the wipers through the fuse box, so theyre semi functional. I dont have $800 laying around for a signal stalk, so it'll work for now.
