  1. Love Purple, Live Gold - LSU, baby, GEAUX TIGERS!!!

     

    An LSU fan's orange enemies would be Florida and Auburn. Tennessee not so much since they're not a regular on the schedule.

     

     

    Clemson?

    Tennessee?

    Florida?

     

    I agree - methinks devonianwalk is a Gamecock fan.

  2. Go figure that Cali would have some kind of law that makes common sense null and void. Hehhh. What kind of prep work is required? Cleaning/ etching, etc?

     

    As for a whole R50, they sell kits on their site and I think it's 3 gallons for an SUV and 2 for a regular sedan.

     

    My hood is oxidizing really bad between the windshield washer ports, and the roof is doing the same thing now. Heck, it's been on there since October 1995, so at almost 18 years old, I guess it has the right to do that, lol.

  3. Ya, I'm kind of digging it. The price comparison is much lower than a paint job, I like a matte finish, and you can literally apply it in the driveway since you can peel off any overspray. I'm thinking camo green or brown. . . but the koi orange may be a possibility if I'm feeling spunky. ;)

  4. It's a process to "paint" your car with a fusing plastic. You spray it on like a normal paint job, but then when you get tired of it you can peel it off by hand and paint it a different color. Could come in handy for me since my hood and roof could use a repaint - this may be a viable option. Want to see if anyone has used it/ heard of it/ know someone/ etc.

  5. I went and looked up in the assembly using the diagram from the website that Leo94 provided, and sure enough - one of the brake stoppers is completely gone (that's what was on my floormat) and all but one of the three stoppers in the clutch assembly are gone, and the remaining one is a partial. This may fix both my constantly-on brakelights and my cruise control that has not been working for a year or more.

  6. Ok, so I just got back from a week vacation where my Pathfinder sat idle for 10 days or so. It started right up and was fine in every respect except that, after making my first drive upon returning, the brake lights (and the high-mount third light) stayed on. I've tried playing with the pedal and inspecting the visible wiring, but am not sure what I'm looking at. As a temporary fix, I just pull the fuse when I stop the vehicle so the battery doesn't drain, but that means if someone is driving behind me, it looks like I am braking all the time. Any ideas?

  7. Did this procedure Saturday with no problem. Ordered a pair of key fobs from eBay for $27.30, and followed the instructions.

     

    1. Make sure both fobs have batteries and are ready.

    2. Sit in the driver's seat, and use the driver's-side power door lock button to lock all the doors. You are now sitting in your Pathfinder with it not running and all the doors locked with you inside.

    3. Put the ignition key in the ignition and remove it six times within 10 seconds. You don't have to do this blazing fast, just be steady - all the way in, all the way out 6 times. (insert "that's what she said" here, hehhhhhhhh)

    4. The hazard lights should blink. You don't need anyone outside to watch, you will see the lights on the dash and hear the relay click.

    5. Very important, because I forgot this the first time around: When the hazard lights blink, put the key back into the ignition and turn it to "ACC."

    6. Press any button on the key fob, and the hazard lights should blink.

    7. If you have a second fob to program, use the driver's-side power door lock button to unlock then re-lock the doors, then hit any button on the second fob.

    8. Manually (with your thumb) unlock the driver's door and exit the vehicle. Check both fobs to verify function. Mine unlock the driver's door with the first press of unlock, then all other doors and rear hatch with the second press. No lights blink or horns sound when unlocking, but the hazard lights blink twice when I lock it.

     

    Unfortunately, even though the fob has a trunk release button, it does not function on my Pathfinder. Of course, pressing unlock twice unlocks the hatch, but there seems to be still no way to just pop the back glass. Oh well, the gas struts on that thing are shot anyway. . . .

  8. Is it time to create an alternate log-on, to stack the vote? Do it Boss Tweed and Tammany Hall style? P... I already cast mine for you, PA.

    Man I wish I had never posted this; I just realized someone actually did this. While it's flattering to think that I was able to influence someone (maybe they Googled Tammany and Boss Tweed and got a history lesson) it is absolutely unsportsmanlike to have done so. It was just a joke. Guess I should think twice before pressing "Post" next time.

  9. Here is another question..What was your first job ever..?

     

    Besides walking a lawn mower around house to house asking to mow their lawns for cash...I worked at a local Pizza place after school...stuck it out for 3 years. :headwall:

     

    Dishwasher at a bar for $4.35/ hr. (10 cents more than minimum wage at the time) When I started shucking oysters in the oyster bar, they paid me $4.75. This would have been. . . .1995.
