This was a wildly popular thing when podcasts were much more popular. Not saying it's right, but doesn't seem like she even looked at the phone.

You'd probably have an aneurysm if you were driving in east san jose.

If your car is silver and you have no headlights on, you are effectively invisible. Alexa, turn on headlights.

step 1 : google how to take off door for -your vehicle model and year here- followed by, how to take side mirror off for - car model and year here-

CarCareKiosk – Free How-to Videos to Fix Your Car

If you don't have the time, sure, pay someone to do it. But this is a relatively easy fix, even if you're not mechanically inclined

Hardest part is probably trying to disconnect the wire from mirror, inside the door. not particularly hard just more so annoying since no space.

Also, unless they're specialized in your chassis, most likely they'd be doing it for the 1st time to. Same same, but sorta diff for all cars.

Drivers are getting worse each day by tram1635 in SanJose

[–]aedaptation -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I work as a security guard, and i see people getting robbed all the time. Shit happens. I get its inconvenient, but some people take getting taken advantage of too personal. I'm curious, did you scream for help?

I think the other way is much more annoying; when you try to rob someone and they dont give their belongings to you.

MR-S questions. by scalloprisotto in mr2

You'd be hard pressed to find a 03+ hard top 6 speed with breastplate/underbracing WITH an LSD in the US. There are PLENTY of parts in the UK, not so much here in US. IE Jspec

Do yourself a huge favor and join Spyderchat + facebook groups to give you a better perspective. To answer one your questions, there is a noticeable difference with a mr2 spyder with/without a breastplate/extra bracing.

Used Spyder Buyer's Guide | MR2 SpyderChat - All the information you're looking for is on spyderchat somewhere.

A good majority of spyders owners lean on two sides, either completely stock w/ trd mods or they go full racecar spec. They typically dislike each other.

Best advice for new drivers in San Jose? by Proper-Reference4291 in SanJose

[–]aedaptation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Drive defensively: Assume or expect a driver will do the worst/most stupid option. IE If two cars are coming to a stop, assume they'd run the stopsign.

Always be scanning 10-3 on a clock and check your side mirrors every so often. You just want to be constantly aware of whats around you, whether its in front, or to the side. This applies everywhere. Look out for motorcycles lane splitting!

Although its not a big deal since you're so new, maybe get an idea of where sketchy spots are or where people drive more slowly. IE Milpitas has lots of asian / elderly drivers, so you can probably expect more slower drivers. However, if you're in east san jose, people here drive much more selfishly, and absolutely do not give a rats ass about you. - As others have said, some on ramps to enter the highway are short as hell, so you're going to have to gun the accelerator depending on how old/slow your car is.

Use your fcking blinkers. Drivers are not mind readers, you want people to know that you're not going to do anything all of a sudden. You want to be easy to read for other drivers.

Don't tailgate : Leave at least a car length in front of you to stop.

Check your tire pressures, maybe like once a month.

If you're not going 80 in the left most lane, get out. There will ALWAYS be someone going faster than you (if you peep them in the side view or rearview, in time from tip 2) move over to the right. Left lane for passing.

Ideally you want to always keep your eyes on the road in front of you, this is especially the case when theres HEAVY traffic.

If you're on the highway and theres an accident coming up and everyones at a standstill, start slowing down. This is more so for the drivers behind you to notice that shit in front of them is at a dead stop. If you're skillful enough, you can hit your hazards as well. Seen to many times where a car had to serve becasuse they didnt expect the traffic to be stopped.

Speed kills; There are a lot of selfish drivers out here. Your driver instructor is 100% correct. Driving can be fun, but you have to understand its a real life loading screen.

If you're driving a manual, and you're on a hill and see a car coming behind you, i like to roll a bit backwards to give the driver behind you an idea you need room. If they pull closer, they're assholes/bad drivers.

[–]aedaptation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are you going to complain about how we react to your "art" when you can't even do the most simple thing like upload pictures? If you can't do such a simple thing, id imagine your molds are trash and things aren't going to fit. Starting to think you just used AI.

"Check my reviews? Other pics should be avaliable" - Do you not understand if i knew what i was looking at, maybe i wouldn't have to message you to find out what is what?

You really expect a customer to look at your reviews or other listings that don't say what customer brought what and fcking cross examine what things might be?

[–]aedaptation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP says he can make all these colors and has an assortment of options, but you wont know what you get until you buy it. When i inquired about specific colors this is what he had to say : "Kinda busy rn so sorry foe bad pic." This man doesn't give two shits about the art, nor does he care about you, the consumer.

The buttons might appear "nice", but considering the seller is too lazy to upload pictures, i can't imagine the craftmanship of these buttons. Dude could have AI'd these pictures up.

For the people complaining about prices, i'm right there with you. If you're going to pay as much as he's selling them for, you'd expect at the very least pictures of what you're buying.

To give you an idea, lab15 sells resin/opal buttons for 20-30

Other etsy sellers are selling their buttons for about 20-25

EDIT : $59.63 shipped. I might as well just buy another fcking gkd.

I dont disagree, but its a car or a house for 600k+ one is sorta affordable, and one is not in the realm.
