F#CK YOU BOTTOM BOLT!!!!!!!

Aside from that it was easy, took me about 1.5 hours, most of that time trying to get the bottom bolt back on.

Anyways, I put in a Behr Thermostat from PureMS after driving around a while HVAC shows between 88-93 mosty 90.

Only time it climbs up is when the cars in the garage and sits there, then it goes up as high as 98.

Default Don't think they make them anymore...

but they are standard 19" staggered Axis Milano's in 5x100, so no adapters needed

You're better than me. I couldn't get that bolt OFF. The alternator had to be removed.
