    Default lol... can't get the factory wheel chalk back in place.pics

    the factory wheel chalk has been out of the car for a while. when i first got the car i was leaving it in my sloped drive way because my brake didn't work. now the e-brake works and it's time to put it back in. but i can't seem to put it in correctly. in the postion that it's in in th pics i can't get the cover to set properly over it.





    the thing is bent a little but shouldn't be enough to effect anything...or is it bent the wrong way??

    this position seems to work better, but, it's nothing like the manual pictures...




    also, if anyone would like to tell me what i'm doing wrong when posting pics that would be great.

    Ha! Me neither! That's another 1/3 lb I can lose when going to the track now.

    Default You only have to go below the post window ...

    and click the Manage Attachments button. It allows you to browse for the picture in your computer. There is a size limit of 39.1K so if your file is larger, you should size it down first.

    I'll take and post this afternoon a picture of the trunk content arrangement so you can compare.
