Well la-di-frickin' da for you! Ha. Just kidding. Seriously though, good for you, because it's so agitating. It's one of those things you may never solve if you've got it... Hopefully mine continues to be a relatively dead issue. Do you like 'em so far?

I went to get gas las friday because the car had about 40 miles til empty. I get back in the car after filling up and my brake wont go down. Push button didnt work. Car wouldnt do anything. STEERING LOCK. Had to have it towed to Nissan which cost $78 and then $100 deductible. I guess it was better then the $1300 they wrote on the invoice.

This might help. I made this video awhile ago before I vinvyl wrapped my roof and redid the headlights a lighter shade of dip

The trunk panels weren't that tough, just tedious, like any other interior stuff. There's a lot more junk in that trunk than I thought there would be. If I remember correctly, which I probably don't, I think there was really three big plastic pieces. One around the back of the hatch (near the latch), and the two sides coming up over the wheel wells. I also found part the previous owner's mic stand in there, buried under the spare. Bet the dude looked for that for quite a while... You just have to go through a bunch of pop rivets. Be careful when you take off the rubber liner around the hatch. Make a mark on it for when you replace it, so you know how to line it up. It's just a big rubber ring, but it kinda forms to the shape of the opening, and can be a B to reinstall if you can't set it up the way it was. Also the metal edge under it is a little sharp.

Now, you're in AZ, so your laws are probably different, but do you get any flack for covering your tail lights like that? I don't know if it'd be a problem here in PA. You can see the brake lights, but what about regular tail lights? Plenty visible?
