    Write-up: How to Disable (Bypass) the TPMS

    no need to install a connector, no cutting required, don't even need to cut back the jacket. Just take a piece of wire and create a jumper from the two wires. Leave the connector unplugged and tape the jumper on the end of the connector. I used a piece of wire from a Cat-5 cable with about...

    LOL funny Youtube Video T4R LIMITED RWD

    looks to me like the trailer tires were off the ramp, he kept hitting a wall and his momentum stopped quickly. Easy solution is to remove the boat, pull the trailer, pick another spot and reload. All the same, he acted like a complete dumbass.

    Leather seat repair or Wet Okole?

    I ended up getting the seat fixed at a local upholstery shop. $190 out the door. I figured, I paid for the leather, I enjoy the leather, why cover it up. So, I should be good to go for another 5 years.

    Used Car Sales man...is he for real or just blowing smoke?

    1. That is on the wish-o-meter right? 2. That is more likely piston slap than a faulty manifold. oh, and the salesman has no clue what he is talking about.

    Xreas or not?!

    XREAS is nice when it works. When it dies, replace with either Bilstein or KYB. I went with KYB because they were cheaper from my parts guy. Install took a couple hours and it rides 90% as well as original. XREAS was going to be ~2k to replace the system from the dealer.

    did this a while back...it is a nice mod to stay legal, and you don't look like a **** with colored bulbs, no scatter so glare to oncoming is minimized.

    Leather seat repair or Wet Okole?

    I've got a 1" rip in the seam the drivers seat left bottom bolster on my 05 Limited. I'm guessing the repair from a local upholstery shop will be at elast $150. The rest of the seats are in good shape, but that is $150 that could go toward the seat covers. Like to get some opinions on these...

    Anyone Use The Extended Warranty

    Used it to replace the passenger window motor. That alone covered the cost. They did refuse to replace my X-REAS shocks that leaked at 60k. They also wouldn't replace the rear window felt/cleaner that broke off.
