Man, that's the irony though. Look at the punitive punishment GM got for killing 100+ people vs. VW and some arguably excessive pollution.

Are they looking for a bailout now?

Meh, 18 billion is probably a drop in the bucket for VAG.

Haha, vag.

10 to 40 times doesn't sound like a good thing. I am no scientist, but that could lead to more than 100+ people dying.

I'm not sure 18 billion is a drop in the bucket. It's by no means all their moonies, but it ain't 35 millions either ya know.

Oooh, that's a good point. I hadn't thought of it that way. I'm gonna file that away for my inevitable "conversations" with the uber-right wing teabaggers I deal with.

Back from -ing...

So, divert any attention to how stupid the 335 topic is by pointing at an irrelevant Lambo event. Got it.


Remember folks, if sarcasm does not at first work, point at a Lambo.

I'll assume my query regarding the rear sidemarkers switchback being not answered means it's really that easy. You guys are all quick to chime in when it's not, lol.

I can't see how it would be any different to be honest. my guess would be one wire spliced for signal, one for positive, one for ground. *shrug*


grab a pair of multimeters to make things easier.



also the whole 'take one hour' thing never works for me..b


1 hour turns into 3 hours...

replacing pads on a car turns to full caliper rebuild..

ya know...

I know. Brakes took most of the day when I did them, I must have sweat 10 liters (2.64 US gal) under the hot sun when I did them.

It's the rear though, everything is right there... just need to remove the carpet trim thingie. I might end up with 1 side done and the other side not.
