It will be a big surprise for you to know that A pillars have no airbags?

Even so, a hard rear-end can send these metal and plastic objects into the driver's and the passenger's face, or they can bounce back from the windshield in a frontal collision... why take the risk?

ive never thought of using semi syn. oil i always had full syn. oil on my mind and i was confident when having a conversation with friends and told then its best to use full syn. oil. anyway im kinda confuse about this oil thing lol youre the first one that i see replying with 5w20. most type of oil i see ppl post here are 5w30 and 5w40. trust me i dont mind spending much coz i know that the good stuff cost $$.

It was a mistake. It was early in the morning and I had a brain fart. The correct oil is 5w30. Sorry for the confusion. I swear, I wasn’t drinking!

Installed Power Stop brake pads, then bed them in. Like them better than OEM, maybe not as quick of a bite, but mid brake there is better feel. YMMW. Stay well all...

Yes, my OEM pads will be for sale. 13K miles no events. I'll get stone pics and thickness. They are in great shape

Actually the side airbag runs halfway down the A pillar when deployed, that's why they strap down the A pillar moulding to the metal.
