      I hope the wheel works for you and I won't throw away the dash quite yet.

      Congrats Mike, you are one lucky mutter...

        That makes you still have some faith in humanity...

        During the remodeling of my house while I was on my honeymoon they stole about 3k worth of tools(craftsman and snap-on) and other equipment from my garage. Contractor had sub-ed some paisas from HD "skilled workers" union, couldn't find them afterwards. He came through with other things around the house to make up for it, but still couldn't add up to 10 years of collecting specialized tools and ready to use convenient sets.

        I hate the feel of new tools, older tools feel much better like they know what they are doing themselves being seasoned with grease and blood.

                    Great story, Mikey. Did you tip this guy? A case of Budweiser goes a long way....

                        I look forward to complaining about how hot the weather is going to be this summer.

                        Mike, I'm really glad you got your tools back. You really gotta set an alarm on your phone or something to remind yourself to pick them up before you leave:)

                          Guys...

                          WTF is this shit??

                          What is the difference with a regular smog station and a STAR smog station? You received your DMV renewal notice and discovered it says Smog Certification Required at a STAR Station. No need to panic. All this means is that the DMV has chosen your vehicle to be inspected at a STAR certified smog station which is monitored closely by the BAR and must conform to high standards established by the Bureau of Automotive Repairs.


                          Just got the notice for the e30........

                              Apparently if you have failed smog before then you qualify. They may also select vehicles at random...
