I like big wrenches. If it does not fit, I just beat on it.
As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
This adventure has no moral to the story or great happening. It is just shit that happens with old stuff.
So we are going to town to do errands and I always go in the back way for cop reasons and just because I stopped rushing places. I turn on the blinker and it is making this odd sound. TL recognizes it and says, "Your light is out". I drove old stuff growing up and they just made the same sound working or not, so was pleased TL was familiar with what 1997 sounded like.
So we go to the auto store, get a bulb, like 1.95 and head home.
I can figure out how to get into a GMC's tail light, so look on gaytube and it shows how to do it. Two Philips heads, slide the light assembly out, unhook the cable, take the bolt and screw out, light holding unit comes out and pull the bulb out.
Yeah, that is about how it went, until the bulbs appeared in GMC glues them in with weather adhesive. I got the burned one out and knew it did not match what was sold me as it was flat and not round, and when I tried to nigger rig it with one of the other bulbs, that bub broke as it was glued in place.
So took the goo out, and back to town we went. Got two bulbs and I fixed it in the auto store's parking lot. Praise God for that.
Seems like every time I order parts they are the wrong parts. Kind of hard to know what to get as I did not know how to get that tail light assembly out without visuals.
It all worked out and I was pleased for once which does not happen very often. Was better than 50 or 150 bucks to do something that took 3 minutes.
That is the reality of old vehicles which rich people with new vehicles never face.
Nuff Said
