Even with all the plastic a hi-lift isn't exactly useless. As one person already mentioned you could still use it as a primative winch. Never tried it, looks like a heck of a lot of work. If that's all you got then it's probably better than abandoning the vehicle and walking home. Hi-Lift...

I have a couple lights out, figure if I'm going into the dash I may as well replace them all at once. can you change the color of the hvac control lights? that orange isn't my favorite color.

first I used Harbor Freights $10 headlight restoration kit. essentially just sand paper with drill attachments. After that I apply Meguiars Headlight Protectant about once a month. about $8 a bottle and it goes a long way. three years and still relatively clear. for some odd reason the top...

never drove one, but some "experts" believe Subaru has the best AWD system available. some interesting videos about this on YouTube.

This is what I use to keep window/door seals from drying out and looking good. einszett 914806 'Gummi Pflege Stift' Rubber Care Stick - 3.4 fl. oz cool thing is it has a little sponge applicator on it like some shoe polish bottles. you dont' need another rag and it helps keep product off your...

Buckles, thanks for your reply. Maybe it depends on location. This last spring the fitment guide at the costco in Albuquerque didn't have a replacement for my 2006, SR5, V6 can't recall the number but it had the bigger battery in it and I wanted to replace with same

Invisible glass is a good product IF You buy the aeresol can. the pump spray doesn't seem to work as well. I avoid the Wipes of any kind, they just get old and dry out long before I can use most of them.

Interesting, when I went to costco they told me they didn't have a replacement. Did you just buy and self install?

you can get a cheap dash cam to put in the cargo area facing the rear. a dash cam will record over the oldest file when the memory card is full. the cargo area even has an outlet to plug into.

Liners here. on the passenger side the girlfriend made me put a carpet mat on top because the liner scratched her cowboy boots. A side note. Mine are gray in color to match the carpet, wish I got black. the gray gets stained. I also have the Weathertech rear cargo liner. I don't like it...

I don't fish so forgive my ignorance about how rods are transported. I have however seen people use PVC plumbing pipe with screw type ends lashed to the roof rack supports. Can't say what they have in there as I never risked messin with another mans vehicle.

how about just pulling the old plugs off the OEM running boards, connect the new running board wires to that.

Checked youtube and they have some good videos on this subject. Seems there are generally two methods: 1. Open all the vehicle windows. Turn the car on with the blower on full and the air recirculate off. Go out to the windshield find the air intakes for driver and passenger and spray them...

I went to the costco on Renassiance in Albuequrque and they didn't have a battery for my 2006 SR5. Got an interstate instead

as I understand it all those extra lights are suppose to be covered when on a highway.
