What did you do to your mk7 today?

[sterkrazzy]

I did 80% on my car. I've got some co-workers with 15% on their windshields. Now that shit is dark.

i was just looking at the spec's of it. Said it was 10" high and 10" wide. Didn't look that high compared to the width.
Wishing i'd known about this sooner. Later is better than never, right?
Thanks guys!

I saw something like this on Legit Street Cars the other day. I might go ahead and buy one with multiple nozzles: 7 nozzle pressure washer

Pictures are bad because the parking lot has good lighting (which is good), but you get it. Door handle lights tied to the mirror puddle light. So when you unlock the mirrors unfold and then the puddle and handle lights come on.

Well…. Today I realized you can change the rear shock by literally only removing the shock. I’ve been disconnecting the end link and control arm too all this time ?. Classic. Make shit harder than it needs to be.

Work harder, not smarter, right?

Removed door, cleaned up the general area, and placed all the parts indoors. With the door off I have a better look at the hinge and how out of alignment it is. I think its about 1cm from where it needs to be. My plan of attack is to use a hydraulic puller attached directly to the hinge and pull 180 degrees from direction where force was applied in the accident. Slowly, checking door alignment as I go. Still sourcing a door and fender, hoping to snatch a white one.

Went for a nice drive for some groceries. The recommended hot hatch for grabbin' groceries!

I think the manual even has you disconnect the level sensor. It's more work unscrewing all of the fender liner bits

Honestly I was just going by the procedure to replace the spring since I had previously replaced the spring isolators. It never occurred to me that the procedure for the shock would be different. Makes since why since you can compress the shock by hand, but you can’t do that with the spring.

Installed the Euro Sport Upper Front Stress Bar. Very straight forward and easy to do. Just as an FYI, I did not have the bolts and wanted to confirm proper installation. I sent an email to Euro Sport and they replied right back providing me with the bolt specs, an attachment of the instructions and offer to provide any other assistance. Great customer support.

Nice sunny morning drive to Bucee’s for breakfast tacos. (iykyk)

Replaced the cruise control stalk on my wife’s RAV4 too. $15 part and 15 minutes. Dealership wanted $500 ?
