    Damn I am sorry buddy, all these different projects are messing with my mind! Do you have any unfinished Mods that you were working on or are they all completed?

    But note that it still has crank windows in the back! Didn’t even know you could get a Neon with leather...

    I didn't even notice the crank windows and was surprised by the leather seats too.

    Neons with power windows have always had manual windows in the back for some reason...

    Good afternoon! So if you’ve remember my DoorDash escapade from two days ago, you’ll remember that my dashcam was malfunctioning; I tried three different SD cards in it and couldn’t get the bastard to work, so I ordered a new one.

    The two Best Buys near me did not have the one I wanted; I meant to order it from the Best Buy in Quakertown but accidentally ordered it from the King of Prussia one...

    I went to KOP and picked up the dashcam no problems, but didn’t go immediately home; When I opened up the box upon getting home, I discovered that a shitload of parts were missing!

    :annoyed:

    Here it is before I opened it; Note that the seal is not broken...

    The mounting brackets for both the front and rear cameras, as well as the wire for connecting the rear camera to the front camera, were all missing!

    KOP is 25 miles from my house and about a 40 minute drive under ideal conditions; No way in hell I was going back. Due to COVID, most Best Buys are not accepting direct calls and all calls are redirected to call center. After I calmed down, I called the call center and found out that I could return the dashcam to any Best Buy. The closest one with the dashcam I wanted in stock was in Quakertown, where I originally wanted to go, so I hopped in the truck and drove up there...

    I exchanged the dashcam with parts missing for a new one no problem, and the guys at the Quakertown location said that I’d what I’d gone through is a rather common occurrence; This one guy speculated that somebody had bought the dashcam, taken the parts they wanted, and the sealed the box again before returning it. The new dashcam had all of its parts, including the adhesive brackets...

    I installed it in the Best Buy parking lot; Normally I would have waited until I got home, but when I was getting on the turnpike earlier that day to go to KOP, some idiot in a GMC Sierra Denali almost merged into me while I was headed for the tollbooth...

    Today, I did DoorDash in the morning before heading to a car show; On my way to the car show, I saw that Tricounty Athletics was holding a charity car wash in the parking lot of the Warminster Pep Boys and decided to get about a week of pollen off my truck...

    It’s got front and rear cams, but I don’t know what the 1-channel and 2-channel means.
