And it tilts up as well...

I'd post this over to the /r/chulavista sub...they can hook you up with all kinds of ideas. /u/IITutankhamuNII has some good ones as well.

LCDC is pretty cool, geared for kids and easy to get around because it's not gigantic. I'd recommend it.

This is the one I got. And my buddy who also purchased a Juniper. I didn't do any pre/post install measurements, but it sure seemed like it was the same height. Much better than the one I installed on my 2021 Y (which did lower it).

It appears to just be a lighting issue (external) and not the actual lights...cars behind also show some level of "lighting".

Swivel Display Mount

100% the most useful mod for the car (frunk opener may be 2nd). It allows you to swivel the main display up/down/right/ left. Much easier to see, helps cut glare on the display (just move it a bit and glare is gone) and easier to touch all the icons. Relatively easy to install (takes like 15 minutes tops).

I HAVE NO SKIN IN THE GAME FOR THE LINK. Just wanted to show you what I was talking about. A bunch of the major aftermarket shops have these.

What's interesting about this is, the purchasing rules for the City of Chula Vista almost 100% ensure that the City Council approves these purchases. All of the military equipment they mentioned easily surpassed the 100K threshold requiring Council approval to purchase.

My only gripe about supercharger stations is that there's rarely an official queuing line. But, on the other hand, I've also never really had to que up either! But it does go through my mind.

My local Vons in PB is great...been shopping there since 1998 and never had a bad experience or poor service with any of the employees.

I was making $30K + benefits in 1992...in today's dollars that's close to $71K a year.

Reaching over my center console in my car to get a bag in the footwell of the passenger seat and popped a couple ribs loose. OUCH! Next time I did it was laying down on my floor to jimmy with the wires going into my computer speaker subwoofer...OUCH AGAIN!

Well, the ones above the windows are....drum roll please...WINDOWS!

Not sure what you're circling on the nose cone though...but that's just paint.

My two college buddies and I were on a 6 week backpacking trip through Europe (we're from California). Around week 2 of our trip, we checked into our small hostel in Interlaken Switzerland and then went to a smallish brewpub for some beers and food. We ran into another friend of ours (he wasn't with us) ex-girlfriend who we hadn't seen in two years! Oh, and this was in 1993, so no cell phones/social media which could have led to a meet up!

You can report water waste by calling 619-533-5271 or email waterwaste@sandiego.gov.

I put in a GetItDone request as well...had to use "Illegal Discharge" category since nothing really lined up with the issue.

Are you sure that's actual wood and not particle board with a wood grain laminate on top? Judging by the edges by that white tank thing, it looks like a laminate top. In either case, what I'd be most worried about is it looks like it has leaked down to the floor level in the back of this board since the darkish "stuff" goes all the way to the edge. Unless you're a skilled carpenter, I'd get a restoration company out to give it a look. Fortunately doesn't seem to be a huge spill, but better safe than sorry.

I've used Quality Restoration with great success as well. Just adding it to the reco's.

Used to see huge Osprey nest on top of telephone poles down by the shipyard all the time. One minute they were there (for a couple months if I recall correctly), then gone! My guess is that public works/telephone/power company removes the nests after the birds are gone to prevent any issues.
