i bet if DH watched it, he'd critique them... it was all he could do to not heckle the plug-in conversion installers at hybridfest :lol: he takes for granted (and so do i) the years that he spent ripping them apart, that most people haven't actually seen the guts of their cars!

Wires are exposed, nuts, bolts & screws are an the floor, the steering column is down, lots of pieces are all around the car/back seat/trunk area. To them, they think it'll never go back together. I say it's the perfect time to ask for more $$
