    Now I understand why so many people don’t signal before changing lanes! They’re just out of blinker fluid, wow! Such an easy fix.

    Hahaha, I bought blue aluminum valve stem caps 15 years ago for my car. Thought they were cool as hell until one corroded, and seized itself to one of my valve stems! FAIL...

    2nd gen...the a/c control knob ‘upgrades’. Can’t tell what they’re pointing at during the day. Much worse than OEM. Love em, look at them every time I’m in the truck and don’t regret it for a second. :humble:
