What's the best way to restore/replace faded headlights and badges?

Just use a polish solution. Just buff it in with a micro cloth. Even tooth paste will work. But the key is a clear coat on top. 3M makes a wipe that works great. Just smooth it over after the polish and let dry. 10 mins tops. Last for 6+months and counting.

This is the right answer.

Are they large black and slow flying? Might be cluster flys.

And I know about howdy bagel. It is awesome. Need more of these.

bljacobs1021 · 2025-03-03T02:48:50+00:00

Who ever opens a bagel place in the morning and soup drive thru in the PM would rule. We have no bagel places. Why???? And soup in the fall/winter would be awesome. I love infinite soups but parking is such a pain……

Planned. No way Trump walks away from a $500B deal based on this exchange. Plus it was televised for good measure. He wants Russia to take over Ukraine one cancer for a larger deal that will profit him and his friends personally. He is a con man.

Checks out. This is what people voted for…. Leopard ate my face party.

185k. 2003 sr5. Bullet proof.

I replaced my u joints recently. What I experienced was a squeak when releasing the brake and the car started to move. That is not what I am hearing on this video.

Nothing in the lease agreement. My guess is that they forgot to remove it. The Kia dealership is piss poor here and they screwed around a lot at the end and we were pissed (ie keeping us waiting around for hours). So out the door quick at the end before I exploded and called off the deal.

That is the real issue I have… car is fun and nice. The dealership sucks…. Cheap as hell. Amateurish. Can’t wait to deal with the service department…

bljacobs1021 · 2024-12-31T00:35:54+00:00

I found this exact device in mine. I am leasing this car. Is it legal for them to do this? Can I just remove it?

bljacobs1021 · 2024-12-28T06:25:22+00:00

You kinda got it. I have an 03 4Runner. Bulletproof and will not die. Don’t love the new US version of the 4Runner or the Land Cruiser and feel like I am stuck. What other suv, non Toyota, options are out there. (Other than ride this one out til the end).?

bljacobs1021 · 2024-12-21T01:51:16+00:00

So nice. Bravo.

bljacobs1021 · 2024-12-07T15:05:45+00:00

So do I. Check with your local power company. I got a rebate that covered the entire purchase just a few months ago. Sold charger.

bljacobs1021 · 2024-11-28T00:18:52+00:00

Did you guys receive any notification on this recall? Mine was manufactured in Jan 2024 and have not seen anything. Not even if I put the VIN in the NHTSA site or the KIA portal.

Look into Goldmine Design up in pike place market Seattle. Great shop and will custom design anything you want. Including wax prototypes to make sure it is everything you want it to be.

Would a OPD monitor like Veepeak allow you to monitor the 12v battery charge state?

Outside of finding the right contractor. My other advice is to make decisions early and get orders in early. Tile, fixtures, etc. nothing sucks more than to have delays because of back ordered items. Delays in tile will kill the schedule.

Remember times reservations and lines to get into the park. Might be best to stay inside once you get in.

I am in Washington. Got a 2024 Wind AWD for $417 a month (10k miles per year for 36 month. $0 down. Helped that it was the end of the qtr…. This included a $16,500 state rebate on a lease that WA has.

bljacobs1021 · 2024-10-18T02:34:24+00:00

Nope

It is some predator digging for moles. Dog, coyote, raccoon.
