    The morons behind the parts counter always ask everyone if they want wipers professionally installed ? I always tell them I can handle it

    I’ve done the same with battery swaps I could do myself, and I usually end up helping the tech since I have a few accessories powered from there.

    Anyone know if you can remove the grid lines? Does any of the wires take those away if you cut it?

    Yes I did long ago but the name was kinda generic.

    I’ve often wondered how you got your pup to stick his head in that wheel for that shot you have there

    Ahhhh, gotcha, i think we've met at ATX CnC at Cota. You have a nice looking truck.

    Lol believe it or not, she did that all on her own. I had them tilted up against a building cleaning them and prepping for paint and she popped in to say hello. Could hardly believe it myself, so i took a pic as fast as i could. Turned out to be a great avatar. Heres one further back:p

    I run a short one just to keep them from breaking off in the car wash. I had one OEM break off right at the mast, got lucky getting it out with an easy out tap. Yes, you can just unscrew and take it off each time, but I have a membership unlimited washes so I go through a couple times a week and it is just a pain. The short flexible ones survive well.

    You should not have to adjust headlights if you only swap out bulbs, halogen to halogen.
