    Hood wont pop open

    OEM roof rack question

    I just removed my crossbars since the plastic covers broke (really brittle). But now it looks funny. Do they make covers to cover up the rails? I want to keep it there if I ever decide to put the crossbars back on. Thanks!

    HID acting funny

    For some odd reason the passenger side never wants to turn on. i have to keep flicking on and off the headlights until it turns on. Is the HID bulb about to blow? oh and the ballast is located near the firewall so its not near the a/c pipes. the driver side has never given me any problems.

    Car grinds in third only

    It happened just a few days ago. Whenever I shift into 3rd gear, it'll grind very slightly. All the other gears are fine and shift smoothly. I have no clue if the syncro went bad or if i just need a flush. Any ideas?
