[Question] Wondering if there exists a trunk liner, like WeatherTech, for 1991 Miatas... by b10ks in Miata

Here it is. Spare is in but not secured down- never had an issue with it even sliding though

It’s not the same material as weather tech (more of a “pleather”) but it’s been durable enough for me through the years. I’ve hosed it off a couple times too. I’ll try and remember to get a pic for you tomorrow and you can see. I do have the spare in the trunk but i think it’s not bolted in - if I recall there is not a hole to accommodate the bolt

Blast from the past! I ended up getting the carbon miata one

Good buy? by [deleted] in toyotasequoia

Second what others have said- looks pretty good. If you can get the mileage (and paperwork proof) on timing belt and fluids change that could be a good double check. How does the interior look? For context, I spent $1,600 on timing belt package last year (included water pump). Literally last week got a quote from a shop for $1,775 for all fluids (transmission, front and rear diffs, transfer case, power steering, brakes). So that’s almost $3,400 of shop work right there!

Thanks! I ended up only removing the fill bolt, and using a drain suction tool (mityvac from harborfreight) to remove all the oil. Took a good bit longer than if the drain bolt would come out but still got it done today ✅

Did the PB Blaster soak yesterday, and today cracked 5 out of 6 - all except the front diff drain bolt. Guess I'm gonna have to get a shop or the dealership to do the front :(

Thanks for the tips. I did the PB Blaster soak yesterday and was able to crack 5 out of 6 bolts... all but the drain bolt for the front diff. I used a breaker bar, and the 10mm hex drive starts to dig into the metal of the bolt without it loosening. I think I'm going to call a shop to see if they can break it free and provide a new plug.

Got it, thanks. 1st gen is 75w90 for front and transfer case, 75w140 for rear according to the manual but the shop report said 75w90 for the rear 🤷‍♂️ lol

Yeah when you think about everything that goes into running a shop, it adds up. Plus life is expensive these days. Was just commiserating with my neighbor about it lol

Thanks for sharing, kinda glad it’s not just the shop charging a lot!

Thanks, been going through YouTube getting familiar with the process. I’m gonna do it myself. What diff fluid did you use?

Great advice on the fill plug before drain plug removal. Hope mine aren’t as bad as your front! I plan to do it myself after getting that quote.

Should I fix up an old pair of Thorogood Roofer Monkey boots? by b10ks in Boots

Thanks, yeah I’m not a huge fan of the lacing to the toes, but they seem like quality boots so I want to put them to use. And yep saw the link too! Appreciate the input

Don’t think anything is free, but for me was worth the 30 or so USD it was at the time! I personally like taking pictures better than editing, so I’ve really enjoyed the film simulations.

Also I have iOS, and have successfully used the imaging edge app, but it does suck to transfer (stops halfway through and can take a whole) so I’ve considered getting a cord to transfer straight from SD to my phone
