Mr.kenchan.. understand the reason behind, just afraid if you put the mic at that location you prefer, it will collect more background noise than your voice...

Per my comment in my epic quote post, I don't believe so. My reasoning for this is thanks to Mr. Alcheng, who despite not having a steering lock, looked for his fuse anyway. There was no fuse in the slot, which leads me to believe that when Nissan stopped including a steering lock, that fuse had no other purpose and was also omitted. My

I ran out of wax and clay last session, so I'll have to pick up some more soon. Probably need more of the QD, too, although I only use it for clay - I never touch up the car between washes

you can do the Prima Hydro from detailersdomain.com and be done with waxing. just spray and wipe as you dry and it will last about 3-4wks. just spray after each wash.

i use it on my dd's. very effective product. over painted surfaces, plastics, glass. will not whiten. for our harsh winters i put a nice coat of polymer, but in your area where you can wash all yr long, just do the Hydro.
