Shows a pic of two Nissan fork-lifts and says, "Still more JDM" at the top and at the bottom, "Then your Civic".

Sometimes a little proof-reading goes a long way.

I missed that post about the map lights. Must be nice! I don't know if I want to go as far as replacing mine, because I already spent the money on these. We'll see, I need to try my "tint" idea first.

The glow isn't bad, it's not like it lights up anything - the amber/orange effect LED up there still illuminates the gearshift, etc. like it did before.

It's just that I can see the map lights glowing.
nice! how 'cold' does it get there in your area in the winter time?

yah, the maplight 'mod' turned out real good for me so im
would the tint show through the lens? i first thought i'd just get a white illuminating piaa wedge, but then saw that the bulb was blue. that blue would show through the clear lens.

you're using real wood too instead of that laminated stuff so that's even better, imo.

sounds :exciting: with your first kid. lots of fun times ahead.

This sounds much like Kenchan's grammar.

That's exactly what I was thinking, I am probably also going to make a bunch of other things now that the bench turned out good I hate the cheap fake wood everything is made of now a days


Yes both my wife and I are very excited to have our first kid, everything is falling into place we wanted to move in to the new house and start trying so looks like things are working out and I couldn't be happier

unless some one wants to make donations to my boost or repaint funds!

Nothing ruins a potentially good meme or someecard more than bad writing.

np, msbc.

i have templates of info in my head that i just copy/paste.

if you plan on doing detailing as a hobby, those random orbitals are very handy tools. especially for doing your scuffs, the 3" orbital would be perfect... not that you can't do it by hand. just faster.

a good RO polisher will pay for itself just in the time it saves you!

I have both rotary and RO and I use my RO all the time, rotary is only for the heavy stuff or if doing a full out 3 stage polish

It depends, it can get down to the mid-high 30's. Usually sustains around low 40's-50's.

Which I know isn't cold to most, but when the prior week it was 85, then all of the sudden it's 50, your body goes into shock.

That and the Summer heat thins out your blood, a lot.



As for the map light, if I put it on the inside, it may darken it a little bit, but if I put it on the outside it may blend the map lights into the plastic housing a bit - could look pretty neat.
