Hi all,

just got my TL and trying to look for DIYs. is there a consolidated section for all DIY? my apology for the noob question

 

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/3g-tl-service-department-aka-garage-questions-answers-check-here-first-553557/

Welcome to the forums.

 

Gotta love the 3G garage.......

 

Love the info, but there are only a few pertinent links working on that page, and about a hundred good DIYs not listed there. Is it perhaps time for an content update? --Perhaps we could enlist our fearless leader and Administrator extraordinaire, the honorable Steven Bell?

 

At this point in time, it's a disservice to the site.

Hell, maybe even open a new position known as '3G Secretary', or something similar.

I agree, there is a PLETHORA of missing info in the Garage that really highlight how great this forum is, unfortunately, it's simply not centered where/how need be in current day.

 

thanks all. it would be nice to have a DIY section and nothing but DIYs only, no comments or no other posting for easier searching

 

That would mean someone would have to take the time to either delete comments or remake the threads.
Or somehow implement a "disable comments" option when making a new thread for the sole purpose of DIYs.
BUT comments are best for feedback.

 

IF there are threads that need to be added please post the links here and we can make it happen.

 

Ok, I just had to open my big mouth! Well it's better to be part of the solution than whine about it!

Thanks ggesq for being willing to upgrade our DIY Page. Here are the DIYs that I could find. I know there are many more (come on guys, pitch in your favorites and we'll make this page outstanding). Hope this helps!
