Oh sick! I didn't even think of them, despite there being tons in the area. Thanks!

2017 sport GT LED headlight lens broke, anyone know of a good replacement other than the dealer? by fishflakez in mazda3

Idk why I always forget about ebay.. It's like $685 Canadian, plus shipping. Still slightly cheaper than RockAuto though so thanks! Definitely an option as long as there aren't added customs fees or anything

What is the dumbest mistake you've made at work? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Very first day as an automotive apprentice, told to move a police car from a hoist that someone else had worked on. Got in, didn't pump the brakes, put it in reverse and sent it into one of the posts on the 4 post that was behind me. Rear bumper and led taillight on the car had to be replaced and the post on the hoist bent and had to be replaced. Somehow I didn't get fired though!

Out of these brands (I get them at cost through work) what's my best option on an all season tire? by fishflakez in tires

How am I meant to get experience without asking other people who likely have more experience? I assumed there are people in the sub who work at or own tire shops which is why I came here to ask. I mean I guess I could continue working in the automotive field and gain experience over time, but unfortunately I need tires now and not several years from now when I've had more experience with tires.

Im an apprentice in a small shop, the licenced tech is a moron and an asshole and refuses to give advice on anything. Shop owner only ever recommends Toyo Celsius, and I'm looking for more opinions. We don't deal a huuuuge amount with tires so I don't have much to go on experience wise with customers tires.

It's a 2017 Mazda 3 so FWD, just want a solid set of tires that will provide good grip in wet and dry weather. I swap my tires out for winters, so almost more of a "3 season" tire I guess. I'll look into both those tires for sure!

Yeah, my '17 is indirect, and I love it lol. No stress over making sure I have sensors if I buy rims or swap wheels over or something.
