obliterated one of my factory engine bay stickers (the one that's black and rectangular opposite of the battery tray, that states the car meets federal safety standards and says the production date) I'm an idiot and forgot that parts cleaner doesn't like ink

If you haven't seen this, there's a link on ebay for a set: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trks...kers+&_sacat=0 It says that it is new [A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item in its original packaging (where packaging is applicable).] And the price is $11.50 and $5 shipping.

Thanks for the link but the one I'd need is not included, and it's one of those ones that's custom with your vin and production date on it anyway..

Pulled the trans, dropped the gas tank, took the hood off.

Trans came out super easy until I had to disengage the driveshaft coupler. What A BITCH. Just could not get it to move. Everything I found said to push the coupler towards the trans, couldn't get it to budge but finally got it to move further towards the torque tube. Looking forward to cutting out the spare tire well, it'll make this a lot easier in the future.

Started fabing a new exhaust for the turbo. Planning on hearing it start before the new year.
