Default You havent seen me work a screwdriver before have you! LOL

I am car illiterate. I have even dropped something into the dark recesses of the engine bay and had to get under the car and undo the damn cover to get the piece out! : ). All it would take is for someone to show me how its done then I can do it meself after that. Oh great, as I'm typing I see the - it only took me 25min to swap them out post!! Man the pressure,, now I'm going to have to do it myself!
