Finally got pissed off enough today to fix my squeaks...

I have been dealing with these random squeaks in my Ex and since we got this freak heat wave today (almost got to 60 here in Michigan) I decided to fix them. Well I went to the hardware store and got myself some self tapping sheet metal screws and went to town. Fixed my drivers side door panel put on through the light and I think I am going to do the same on the passenger side, but the biggest improvement was putting three screws in the bottom of the rear lift gate, its amazing how much noise that thing made. I also took down the head liner and epoxied the rear on my sunroof so that thing would stop squeaking.

All in all it was a good day, I don't understand why they just didnt use screws to begin with instead of those christmas tree plastic rivet fasteners.

Anyways that is all.

I guess the xmas tree clips are cheap and fast to install. They don't lend themselves to being removed easily tho.
