ok what are the chances of two spark plug wires coming off at the same time.
was on my way to work this morning and the car just died.
had it towed to a shop, and after lkooking around for awhile and hooking
up to a scanner he goes to check down below and see's two wires off.
so he replaces the plugs put the wires back on and i'm driving again.

Ah . . . rust is easy. Just Kick open the slide, put a couple rounds through it . . . . then oil the crap out of it.

I had one fall off and never knew it.....took it to the mechanic to get a pre-sale check done and he noticed that it was hanging off.....just put it back on and started to get good gas mileage again

It is a Megan Racing front tower bar.
Angelo traded me for a couple old tires I had.

I haven't tried it on yet. Not sure if it fits under the engine cover.

did you guys hear about the camera that phoned home after it was stolen.
they have a camera, who's memory card has some kind of built in wi fi.
so all the pic's the thieves took went straight to the real owners pc.
the thieves worked at a local food joint, the real owner knew who they
were, and they were arrested.

ya it fits!

you might want to take off the bar first, and redo the bar, to the way you drive.

and make sure when you take off your stock one there will be little spacers there. take them off.

then put the new brackets on. then put the bar on!

bu the cover does fit.

from what the article said it works just like any pc connecting to a hot spot.
so they could have been anywhere. it was set for auto connect.
