Replaced the o2. I was able to loosen the old one with my hand - probably not a good sign. :rofl

not a gimmick, but definitely overkill for routine washing of properly maintained wheels, i just use the same shampoo that i wash the body with, keeps the wheels spotless.

Had to look for my car today… Couldn’t remember where I had parked it last. I haven’t touched it in days since I’ve been riding my bike so much.

I found it tho. It was a lot dirtier than I remember leaving it

Replaced a Fog light ballast and finally put the K&N back in the truck after taking it out to clean and re oil it months ago.

Ended up just cleaning the barrels and back side of the spokes of the new vette wheels with a scrub pad and alcohol. Then shot a few coats of clear on them for more protection. These cheap china repros dont come with the best of chrome…  
They will be on the car tomorrow. ill post pics then.

Finished soldering all the new wiring in the jetta, put the whole dash back together, changed the oil and drove it for the first time in 9 months. Using a GPS as a speedometer until I can find a mk2 speedo cable gear.
