      I was thinking the same thing! It won't be long, that kid won't be interested in Dad...maybe he'll have better luck with step dad? My situation was kinda similar. My step dad was the best. Made me feel I could do no wrong! They're both gone now. I sure miss my step dad!

    I’m very glad this dude wasn’t my dad. I assisted my dad in many “projects”, ranging from electrical wiring, auto repair, house remodeling, to, well, you name it. He ALWAYS told me what we were going to do, what actions each of us would take, and what to expect. I learned how to do things from my dad, not how to feel ashamed for screwing up.
    And this dude here has the tiny brain and heart of stone needed to actually post it on RUclips. SMH. Sad.
    Katelyn, don’t let this man establish your limits.

    It's like training a newbie at handling /firing a gun... big difference in "squeezing" and "pulling" ;) That part was like a Seinfeld bit. Thanks for the tip with the grabber tool (I have one, everyone should). I could've saved alotta scraped knuckles and bad words doing it that way throughout the years instead of using 'wire fishing' n such. Those grabbers have a death grip.

Thanks btw for the video, very useful information. I do not have a long grab-bie tool thingie, but I have the old school wire coat hanger do about anything tool. 😂

    Thanks for this video!

I'm doing the same thing you are, installing a siren. I laughed out loud when you were trying to have your child helper help you -- that was a riot! Thanks! One concern I have: That's a huge hole you made in the firewall grommet. I wonder whether you have leakage?
