And-i ordered a crankshaft Position sensor at Advanced Auto Parts today just to have with me for my trip to toronto this week. The guy behind the counter looked at me like i had a third head. He had no clue what i was talking about. But we finally found it in the computer
I have driven alone from cleveland to toronto many many times in by big old fat *** dodge magnum. I'm really looking forward to bringing the X and am trying to be prepared in every way i can think of. That includes bringing my laptop so i can stay in touch with my lifelines on the forum. Thanks guys!!
You can take them off fairly easily. Here's what you do, get a small bottle of Goof Off or a similar product which will dissolve the glue. Once that is applied all around the edges, take a 12" piece of dental floss and start working it like a saw, pulling it toward you. The mirror will come off easily.
You may want to try to keep them on though. Sure, it takes a little getting used to but the advantage is worth it. I have a readster and , when used properly, they allow you to see almost behind your car.
Just my thoughts. Good luck with your car, it sounds like a beauty and it's one of my favorite colors.
