Default EG why did you do this?

[Warning this is a rant]

Why the hell did the EGs make changing a headlight bulb so damn complicated. Seriously my EF is way easier. No boot. No spring.



[And this is one reason we have the lounge]

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Changing the headlight assembly on an ek sucks even more.
With that stupid fender bolt.
