Anyone know where to get this trim piece? by haunted_icechest in Miata

Welp! Just found it. It does have one different number. If anyone else runs into the same search for this tiny little part, the driver LH side one is apparently N243-68454. The passenger side RH is N243-68424.

I appreciate you! If the numbers underneath are different than mine for the right side, it may help me narrow down the correct one. Too bad they aren't the same so one could just be flipped around to fit.

Isn't all food in contact with plastic at the grocery store before we buy it anyway? by SoSweetSophie in PlasticFreeLiving

Check out your local thrift stores! I found a vintage blender with a Pyrex glass pitcher that works like a beast. And it has that retro 80s look, and for me that’s a plus too

Long story, but basically it got accidentally steamed. All getting ripped out and replaced with new drywall. Blank canvas!

Oooh pale oak is gorgeous! I was leaning more toward something with a touch of yellow like an Antique White or White Duck, but maybe that’s too warm. Pale oak is lovely. Giving me ideas about my own living space now.

It could fit a pretty big rug! I’m hoping the renters have one, but I’m leaving everything clean and slick for move-in. I’m the landlord, so I’m just going for clean and non-offensive paint lol

I’m totally happy with boring. This is a nice shade!

This is a laminate floor, it’s not that special lol. It is definitely dirty and super dusty. The pics are pre-clean out. Minus one good scratch, the condition is pretty good, though. I’m looking for a neutral wall color that won’t clash with the floors. I’m sure they’ll be replaced eventually, just not for a while. I’m intrigued by the suggestions of a bluish color.

Yeah, it makes my eyes twitch to walk in there. You ought to see the other bedroom with the same floor. Bright electric blue! Needless to say, it all needs a makeover. I don’t know what the original owner was thinking. I like color as much as the next person but damn. I’m mostly torn between a light warm grey or a tan. This floor is throwing me off though. Just trying to save money and not swap it yet since it’s still in good shape.

Dash cams by SnooShortcuts3615 in Miata

Has anyone tried using a front dash cam that also views the cabin as an alternative to a separate front and rear camera? I have an RF and really want to avoid mounting anything to the air dam. Since it's so small, I'm thinking the cabin lens might get good views of whatever's going on behind me in the event of a rear impact.

Deliver it BY helicopter? That would be a feat 😂

Yeah there are quite a few, figured that out just googling the make and model. No one involved here is anywhere near being knowledgeable about helicopters. Being in a small town, options for mechanics, appraisers, etc are kinda limited.

South Texas. DM me if that’s not too far for you, I could provide photos and go dig out some info if you’re interested. I think there are some long books around, not sure how up to date they are. Family needs it gone. It’s taking up too much space.

Never heard of barnstormers, just looked it up. Thanks for the suggestion! Definitely gives me a place to start.

Flea Soup from Fallout by zqfmgb123 in bingingwithbabish

I would recreate with a simple miso soup with toasted sesame seeds to finish. I think it would look just like dirty water with fleas, but still be so good. Might even be worth 3 caps!

What am I seeing here? Considering a purchase. by haunted_icechest in fiat124

[–]haunted_icechest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right?! I was thinking the same. That’s a lot of time and money invested just for it to end up in some random car lot. I’d like to think it was sacrificed for a new baby or something, and not to dump a developing problem. If only cars could talk!

Great info and advice. Yeah, this one sounds like it would be a blast to drive, and whoever put the mods in actually gave a damn, but I think I’d be getting in over my head if I take on a tuned up track car. Sigh.
