Which would be more beneficial as far as answering common technical questions?
show how to tear down a column enough to change the lock, or recover a sunroof headliner.

I’ve got Polly here so she can run the video camera while I do the work.

you've only got about an hour to vote. and then i pull the car in.

If you might end up doing both anyway, I would would go with the lock replacement first, as it seems more of an important thing to keep the car going. The headliner, being cosmetic, I'd save it for later, and hope the backer doesn't break into at least three pieces on you, like mine did!

Lock cylinder! The only hard part of replacing the headliner is getting the A-pillars off without breaking them. And the itching, the itching!!!

You should make a video that shows how to fix the power locks so you dont need to push them 10 times to get them to work.

But i vote for the lock thing.

I’d like to see a video of you making brownies.
Or maybe pineapple upside down cake.
I know…breakfast eggs benedict.
Just kidding I haven’t had supper yet.


The headlight motor rebuild was really good

I second that. Added a wishlist :-)

1) Steering wheel lock/tilt/blinker - high beam module
2) Headliner
3) Power locks
4) Dew wipe + glide pad procedure
5) Adjusting torsion bar so that trunk lid doesn't hit me in the head on a windy day. (without destroying windshield)
6) cleaning of contacts for electrical system (headlights, groundstraps, etc.)

sorry, but i'm only going to do stuff on a "as needed" basis.
since my rotors and bearings are fine, i have no need to do them.
but if i get a customer that needs them i'll be sure to tape it.

i'm pretty much going to tape everything i do on fieros from now on unless it would really slow me down messing with the camera

i must not have had all of it anyway, cause part 2 was only about 6 minutes long and there is really about another 20 minutes worth of video.
so it's a good thing it got deleated, otherwise i may have thought everything was ok.

You didn't lose the original video itself did you That would be a pita.

Is it just getting chopped up when you upload it?

Up to part 3

If I'm ever able to afford and upgrade my hosting package I can host the full videos for you, be easier than dealing with YouTube.
