    Just did a door check strap in my F150. Makes a world of a difference getting rid of the “popping”! Well done my man!

      Nice! Yeah that one little part makes it feel so much nicer now! Thanks for the view!

    A small project like that feel great, because opening and closing the door is key to everything else. Working with old brittle plastic is rough, I end up handling and pulling everything apart like a sweaty bomb technician.

      I totally agree! The door seems to have more substance to it now that it's not just swinging wildly when opening! Thanks for the view!

    Double
    Glazed windows keep the car quieter. They also insulate and help keep heat or cold out. And they typically also won’t fog up in colder moths. Armored cars the windows would be like 5 inches thick. Lol beautiful car! I love mine. You really should have also disconnected the battery. Many times when the airbag in the door is reconnected the air bag will deploy. Kind of scary cause it’s like right in your face.

      You are totally correct I have become a little too used to working around airbags in the dealership. Thanks for the info and view!

      I really want to tackle doing a paint correction on it and really make it look awesome but I need to wait until it gets to live in the garage at the new house.

    I had an S320 SWB and returned it to Mercedes-Benz Credit after the lease ended. Great cars!

    I think a video on Fiat Chrysler cracked heads issue would be good content. Car wizard mentioned you told him how that's still a problem even with brand new fresh off the line engines.

      Yeah the head issues were a big deal a few years back now!
