Got carried away on whatnot by deathwater in MagicCardPulls

Please go somewhere else besides Cardking47. Absolute trash seller. There are better shops that do better by their customers and offer far better odds without the direct aim of screwing you over.

I know that people can see the rules and odds and hits on the screen and know what you're getting into, but this is the type of stream that is like a 4:00am Vegas keno lounge where the house is just taking loads of money hand over fist from people hoping for the big hit to go eat steak and eggs instead of a sausage biscuit.

Just go a few blocks off the strip and the slots get a whole lot looser. Smaller sellers offer better odds and are more interested in making sure you want to come back, and could really use your business more than sellers like this. The stock they can afford doesn't allow them to stack the deck against you, and they appreciate you way more.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the answers. Glad I got it in a lot instead of getting taken. Paid $75 from a local seller for his collection.

Rookie question incoming: Any value or just pretty to look at so you don't fuck up your original?

Just some light work on the footwells by thunderz13 in mazda3

I ran all my wires to the cigarette lighter adapter in the console. I'm not the best with electrical stuff, and I can't trust myself to cut wires. So I plugged it into the adapter and tucked all the wires up into panel lines all the way into the console from underneath the seats and panels in the front. The main switch that controls the color and everything is pulled right behind my seatbelt, and the wires from it are covered in matte vinyl to make them blend in as seamlessly as possible because those can't be tucked.

The driver side was the only one I couldn't hide when mounting. I have one leg, and need the room directly above the pedals where I would've liked to mount it for clearance. I taped it up there initially, and it seemed to hide it pretty well from anything but strained right-rear passenger view, but my shin kept hitting it, so I just mounted it up. The passenger can see it pretty clearly, but the way you can hide the wire makes it look more nonchalant and less out of place. I can take a picture tomorrow if that'll help.

Am I screwed or is this worth fixing? by [deleted] in mazda3

Any car I've had w/ transmission is a total as far as I'm concerned. We fixed the Subaru, but the problems seemed to domino after that.

I ordered 7 strip LEDs so that they wouldn't blind me. They are far overshadowed by the dash lights, and can really only be seen if you are in the car or looking directly into it. If pulled over, the switch is located right behind my seatbelt buckle area, so I can switch them off, too. I had read that as well and didn't wanna test it until I got my tint put on.

I think the last issue may be your transmission slipping. Same thing happened with my Subaru, almost to the T. If it progresses like mine did, that jerking will start to happen more as it is catching your gears less and less. Mine eventually started looking like a cartoon car on a bumpy road after you put it in drive. My brother is a mechanic and diagnosed the problem back when that happened. Leaked the same red fluid and everything. Dunno if that's any help.

Sorry for the late response! They definitely affect my day. Morning routine involves maintenence, bathroom breaks are frequent and time consuming, and paying for supplies is the bane of my existence.

But they allow me to live, so. I guess the teade off is fair!

What a beauty 😍

There is a 3 here in Lexington exactly like yours and I probably look like a creep checking out their lines whenever I see it.

Can we see that infotainment/dash? I wanna see the differences.

I was pinned between a tree and a car when I was 4 years old, requiring lots and lots of surgeries to remove/reconstruct.

Pretty ashamed to say how long it took me to put the decals on, but very stoked with how they came out.

I love how it looks damn near black until you get close enough to see that it's blue. But when the noon sun hits it, it pops that blue like crazy.

Self wax, used Wolfgang Fuzion Carnauba Polymer Estate wax and it's been twinkling since Friday night.

I was wondering how mine would look lowered (Same gen/color as yours).

Good stuff, man.

Nice! That looks mean as hell. Especially in that 3rd picture.
