Wife scratched the hell out of the passenger door handle and it needs to be replaced. Looks like I can get a color matched one from patznet, but have no idea how to remove and replace these. I tried a search and came up empty. Anybody done this before or have a page from the service manual?

bump!

Question about setup for the fix If I am reading this correctly, I will take two wires (my plan is 12G romex) and insert them into the correct spots in the OBD II connection port. I will stand outside of the vehicle and touch the opposite ends of both wires together "4-8 times". I will go...

As many have reported, it snowed today. It doesn't take much for the roads in St. Louis to become a complete mess. While driving home today I had the truck in 2HI and was sliding all over the place (ice + loose snow), even with the new GY Wrangler SA on. I decided to change to 4HI since the...

When changing the oil filter in a 2004 V6, does anyone have any tricks for getting the filter off without getting oil all over the filter connector. There are two holes but they don't seem to drain any of the oil. Any help would be great.

I would like to send a huge THANK YOU out to Mr. Castulucci and Rando for their awesome write-up of the head unit removal. With this write up I was able to hard wire our DVD player into the JBL in about two hours (30 minutes spent BSing with the neighbor). A year ago I never would have...

Thought this might be interesting. List your favorite car wash soap. I listed the top 3 from a detailing forum I go to, but feel free to chime in with your own.

This was obviously total :bs: . I am planning on Revo's when these are trashed next winter.

This has been a blessing and a curse. I initially was going to buy a system from Circuit City, but after 1 HOUR of trying to be rung up (I am not kidding, they could not ring the stuff up!) I left. Then I went to ultimate electronics. Bought the system, had everything set up, took it in and...
