I suspect they ship them in a box with a lot of padding around them so they're not close enough to the edge of the box to say attach to the floor of the UPS truck and stay there permanently. I know it has more force, but it's also thicker. 800+ lbs of force should do the job, plus it's thinner...

That's why we didn't get anything with a several hundred pound force rating. :rofl: Although those would probably be the most entertaining. Not withstanding the extreme cost, dropping one of these on the roof of someone's car (who you don't care for) would be good for a lot of laughs.

Entertainment??? :idea:

My coworker and I stumbled across this website earlier today. We of course shared it with another coworker. The damage... About $50 per person. :rotfl:

Thanks for sharing! :thumbright:

The low flow toilets in my house will use more than 1.6 gallons if you hold the lever down longer. Something more like 2x the water. So, that's what I do for solid waste.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Pale Moon. My coworker pointed it out to me today. He swears by it as being significantly better than standard Firefox in terms of snappiness and memory usage.

And by "correct" you mean the side that wants to kill people they disagree with. Got it.

Uh, that was Alfred.

Doesn't your car have an AMI connector that acts as the aux input? Are you looking for a switched power source?

You, Samuel L. Jackson, and Ellen Barkin apparently.

Drive a different car for a day then come back to it. ;-)

The S8 is a monster. If I was loaded and wanted a fast land barge that would be my choice. In other news, I tried a rinse free wash of my S4 today in the garage with Optimum No Rinse. It looks nice and clean in the garage. I'm not sure what I will see when I get it out in the sunlight tomorrow.

I have a Pentium-M 1.7gHz laptop running FF 14.0.1. I'm using it right now. It works fine for casual web usage.

You should find out if it's a crime to lie to census workers. If it's not you should start telling all sorts of tall tales to them.

Maybe he's really short. :rofl:

That is a really bad idea. You do not want a roll cage in a daily driver unless you're always wearing a helmet. Without the helmet the roll cage poses a considerable safety risk to your head (from hitting it).

You'd have to give him your address for that. I don't think your paranoia will let that happen.

Oh gnoes!!! Now what will Merc buy?

So the insurance companies cooked up a new test which many cars do badly at which they can then use as a basis to raise insurance rates? I for one have to say I'm shocked.

I got this one. According to their compatibility chart (PDF) this other one is also compatible with your A3s.

He didn't ask how much it was, he asked where you bought it.

:tdown: That's almost believable...

My point was more that the guy you traded probably upgraded it. Some quick Googling seems to confirm that it prompts you for updates. Since it didn't ask you, it had to have been upgraded prior to being in your hands.

While I'm not a PS3 expert, I thought it prompted you for upgrades.

I can't say that I've noticed anything with the brakes. I've noticed this from the first day with the car. I can hear the high pitch sound and the relays clicking away even with the hood closed. I'm not entirely sure what the high pitch sound is all about. The relays make sense given all the...

Report him to ebay for attempting to bypass them? Regardless, I think you're likely to get hosed.

I put the supercharged badges on my S4 yesterday. I had fun with the ECS template that prints out at the wrong size in Acrobat / Adobe Reader no matter what settings you use while printing it. I had to open the PDF in Photoshop and print it a few times to find the right scaling. Strangely...

I can't really say that I've noticed any difference from the weight. Then again I'm still in the break in period so I haven't really been hammering on it other than the occasional WOT + engine breaking jaunts.

Pictures:

I bought the U2711 a few week back. I was aware of the cheaper Korean options at the time but bought the Dell anyhow.

The LCD panels are b-stock, or maybe are not up to Apple / Dell's standards. The whole product isn't b-stock. That said, I bought the Dell.

I don't have a problem with them selling them again if they were upfront and honest about them.

Yes, the finish quality was much better. They still weren't exactly flawless, but the defects were fewer, much smaller, and considerably less obvious. I felt the finish was better than acceptable. I'll try to get a few photos today. While we're on the topic of wheels, I noticed that...

I got my Enkei Raijin wheels installed yesterday. Sorry, I didn't bother to take any pictures yet. I did weigh the stock Audi 18" wheels though. They're right at 28lbs a piece. The Enkei's pretty much matched up with TireRack's number of 21.1lbs.

I believe they both utilize the Venturi effect to pull the soap from the tank.

These are only for the lights under the door panels and the trunk light. I would say the LEDs aren't any dimmer than the original lights. I'm not sure if they're brighter or not though.

When I was using it straight in the foam gun I didn't even bother to pour it out. I just left it in there for next time. I'm not so sure. I haven't put them back together in the car yet. It should make a noticeable improvement in the light output from the LEDs since most of the light is going...

I also ordered the wheel woolies today. :) It's not necessarily wrong. That's how I started using it. Straight soap but I used C (I think). Then I read that most people were diluting the soap in the bottle and using E. Ultimately, I don't really think it makes much difference other than with...

Of the various things I've tried I really like the Mothers Lambwool wash mitt for washing. It's very gentle and glides over the car. Number two would be the yellow uber wash sponge from DD. It is reasonably gentle. I found the old standby grout sponge seems to grabs the car / paint much...

I wonder if they've disabled the "feature" that messes with using the drives in RAID in the Red series.

I bought some other stuff from ECS so the shipping charges were diluted over more items so it wasn't as bad. By the way, I noticed you didn't have any wash media in your order? Do you have any sponges or mitts?

I bought a variety of microfibers from DD also. I use them with the Costco ones. I've been washing them with the same microfiber restore detergent that you got. I got a 32oz container though. Yes, I bought one. I got it from ECS Tuning. They're cheaper than Europa.

You don't need to take any more pictures. I got the idea. Reportedly the Sam's ones are nicer and hold up better after washing. The Costco ones are pretty good though. However, after a few washes they seem to get a little coarse / grabby. I probably wouldn't use ones that have been washed...

Here are two of the threads I found helpful: Thread 1 & Thread 2 Post with links to the bulbs I bought. I got the car back in the late afternoon. It needs to dry out a little more, but I'm very happy with the results. Subjectively the car feels considerably cooler now in terms of the sunlight...

Congrats! :cheers:

Do you have a picture? I wasn't aware there's a chrome piece on the Audi CF inlays. There is no gap on the oCarbon inlays. The fit is nearly identical to the standard aluminum trigon inlays with the exception of the quattro badge. It's completely on the surface of the oCarbon trim whereas...

Nah, it's pretty easy. There are a few good threads on AZ that get into some of the particulars of doing it, but aside from the T25 screw and the overhead center console it's all popping things loose with a trim tool or flat screwdriver. It's actually worse than the instructions let on because...

My money is on mistress. :rofl:

So the 64GB Sandisk Ultra SDXC card I got failed after I copied about 20GB to it. :cursin: Now I get to play the warranty game with Sandisk since I bought it on ebay. The seller says it was purchased from Beach Camera. I got my interior LEDs installed in the car yesterday. Today I saw the...
