wait, you think the "check oil" level light has something to do with your TRANNY fluid. Someone correct me if Im wrong, but I believe that light only activates if the engine oil is low. And I used to get that stupid light periodically at a cold startup. but haven't seen it come on it years since...just a fluke I guess. | |

Goodluck putting those on. I've never seen one done seemlessly. Everything I've seen they almost always hit something or don't close right always some kind of problem. Not my cup of tea but I still want to see picks. Let us know how it turns out. | |
