    It’s a British law you need to have one to be legal. I think it’s a fog light?
    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    LOL...and Choppers.

    And let us not forget all the rest of my extended VX family, we had better include them too...

    Bowties, Blu Ovals, & Rams might be "just hunks of metal & rubber & stuff, but VX's have a soul I'm pretty sure.

    Ok!Ok!Ok! So if a VX had been destroyed it would have bin a homicide seen and not vandalism.

    Yep...CSI's "carmocide" division would have been called.

    CSI was actually on the scene and later came to my house to finger print the vehicle...

    Nothing ever came of it And we had good leads too... Just don't think they cared enough. If it happens again, I'm going to stick to a bicycle for a while... don't think I can take it.

    No problem with that happening in Moab...yer newest, bestus unkL dub always carries a spare tie rod & more tools than a lot of mom & pop gas stations have ever seen.

    That's good to know that everyone's looking out for each other I just would've sat in my truck with a shotgun and sent friends to get the parts if it happened again.

    (or maybe hid in the hills with my 20" Barreled AR15)

    Quick question though... my new window channels showed up from SBC, and I NEED to install them...

    Any suggestions? Advice? Tips?

    What did you use as your adhesive? Commercial Hot Glue? Is it straight forward?

    What about panel removal?

    Thanks!!

    My late grandma would do the same thing. This is her with my old bushmaster.

    Ha that's great...

    I've' got a Bushmaster HBAR 20" with Leupold 6-18X Mark 2 scope.

    Fun gun...

    Hope the install goes well for me... beginning now.

    Wow! That was easy... About 30 min start to finish...

    I highly recommend that mod. I did squeeze a bit too much Hot glue in one of my brackets... so it wouldn't slide on... so I used the other bracket...

    Now I've got to clean out the passenger side bracket before I can install that one... (which I won't do until that side breaks).

    Nice! I need to order that kit for mine, just in case. I miss my old AR15 I need to get another one I tried a friends AK47 but It just wasn’t the same. The only reason people buy AK47s is because they cant afford an AR15.

    Highly recommend the kit... AR's are fun, but I grin more when shooting an AK... I just hit less "Stuff" The ammo is so cheap you just point it at a nearby cardboard box and go at it with the AK... The AR, I take my time, set up something far down range and then shoot one shot at a time...

    Anything that goes bang is fun

    Heading out tooele way tomorrow to go chuck some brass.
