Yeah, I need to find out where it came from though. The car came from Toronto, Michigan then Utah.

Default You wanna hear a funny yet sad story?

One of the backlighting bulbs went out in my gauge cluster. I figured the dealer would have the bulb. They tell me that I need a new instrument cluster ("Sorry, we didn't design it that way"). I go to another dealer, he tells me same thing, but he goes to talk to a mechanic and comes back with three free bulbs for me. Where did he get them? Some poor sap had brought in his car to get the instrument cluster replaced. The mechanic pulled three working bulbs for me. Guess whay the guy got a new instrument cluster? That's right, fellas, he had one bad bulb...

Default NICE $.02 dead bulbs are all it takes to replace a $300 guage cluster.

You saw how they go into it too, **** they are MEANT to be replaced. What the **** is that all about. Can we say *** monkeys at the dealer are evil!


Fighting off *** monkeys left and right!
