No extras, no shineys, no heater, no a/c.. pure car. and the driver..

    The only things you might need pics for is removing AC and PS. everything else is self explanitory.

    What do u want pics of?

    IMHO, if someone needs a DIY that detailed, they shouldn't be doing it all

    Well IMHO, you're wrong.

    People like me would be more willing to try the DIY with detail and pics.

    Like I've said, go for it OP, make the DIY

    Yeah well some people find it easy to do something from directions and some do better with a diagram.

    Honestly I suck with word directions. But give me words and a few pictures to go with said words, and I could build the Space Shuttle.

    To me, pictures are just a security measure to ensure whatever you're trying to do is correct and done the most efficient way as compared to others.

    Even Haynes and Chilton uses pictures for the same reasons.

    Not really a new one.. maybe a more advanced one.. you can post a picture of anything and without words, directions and insight.. you could be clueless.. How else do you learn to be more Knowledgable in the auto world? learning from others is a great start.. Have to start somewhere.. Anywho.. i've been busy doing the run around on a seatbelt deal, and fixing other peoples cars..
    I guess then.. It could be known that if you want detailed info and pictures.. send me an message.. Thanks

    Re: Random DIY

    trust me, I use DIY all the time. There's a lot I don't know, and need to look at DIY for. For example, I've been looking at catch can DIY, tons actually. I'm feel extremely stupid, just cause I'm still stuck on how to plumb the oil separator shit...

    basically what I was saying is, if you need a diy for an easy project, then you shouldn't touch it. I think a person should help/teach you...

    anyways, this is just all my opinion. I'm done in here.. not trying to keep going and arguing with peeps here. Anyone can do whatever, I love it when people contribute to our site.

    Can't we all just get along.. look at the fights i started over a DIY lol..
    Should just use a power steering reservoir.. its got the 2 tubes on the sides, and the one 1 tube on the bottom already made up for you, And its already got a mounting bracket too. and a cap for the filter.. easy as that.. keep it mounted at the same spot as you would normally have your power steering reservoir.. only now its your oil catch can.. and confuse Looks the best IMO..
