However, it's going through insurance, so not really an issue for me. Other guy's choice, I'd have been fine with leaving things be if he covered a DIY repair, but up to him. I suspect the quote is going to write the car off. It's a little annoying as I was right in the middle of selling the car this week, but we'll see how the chips fall. My expectation is the insurance company write it off, I'll pay them to retain the car as-is, and someone is still interested in buying it dented, so they most likely get a bit of a bargain (I've basically just stuck parts on the car as needed, so it's just been serviced, and within the last year had new coils/plugs, battery, discs/pads, and a full set of Pilot Sport 4s).

InitialDave posted:Cheers, but it's currently holding steady at "minor irritant" status. As long as insurance stuff proceeds as the relatively straightforward non-fault claim it's gone in as initially, I'm probably not going to lose out in any significant way. Hey as long as you're not hurt minor irritant isn't a bad place to be. Bought myself a 3d printer, quite excited for it to turn up next week.

I had a stray kitten we caught on our front door step. Local vets told us to keep her for a week and put up found posters in case it was someones new lost kitten.  Her name is Talisker. Smudge and Isaac both tolerate their new sister.

It’s actually rather amazing what everyday problems an average dude can solve with a 3D-printer. I wrote them off for years because I felt it was just circle jerking and printing nerd figurines, but the amount of holders and brackets and little spacers and whatnot I’ve made is pretty good.

We went to a wedding last night and they had these amazing chicken tenderloin sliders and I think I actually dreamed about them they were so goddamned delicious. Also the wedding was good and the best man was hilariously drunk and his speech was all mumbles with the occasional actual word but there was so much heart in there that nobody cared. Super good night. I need more of that chicken though.

On cat chat this daft besom as well as being terribly long sighted now also has no night vision so we had to put battery sensor nightlights in the bathroom so she can find her litter tray. Not too bad for 16

Cattes! My wife's '16 Equinox doesn't have a fancy built-in satnav, so she runs a dashtop unit. She wants a new one that uses BT to give instructions through the stereo's speakers (interrupting the radio). Does such a thing even exist? Am I missing a secret keyword in my search?

There's plenty of aftermarket units like Pioneer and Kenwood that make exactly that. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=pioneer+gps&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

Thanks, but I don't want to replace the stock HU, I just want to be able to couple the dashtop GPS to the HU's BT input.

I could see us fostering cats but we have 2 issues Our existing fluffballs would NOT take to new roommates well (brother and sister, have lived together their entire lives) and/or we would grow attached, keep them all and end up having 50 cats.

Oh, I misunderstood what you needed.....Can't you upgrade to a factory unit with NAV out of a higher optioned Equinox or some other GM vehicle? Then at least you can keep the factory look and not have a dashtop GPS.

Step two is believing a power higher than ourselves can navigate us. Step three is turning our navigation over to Google Maps Step four is to make inventory of fuel and snacks and plan bathroom breaks Step five is to admit to yourself, your wife, and your higher power you have no idea how to get to Ikea, sorry, I thought this road went through to the highway but I guess construction has happened since then.

The spark plugs on the Panda were only in finger tight. Genuine, could-undo-them-just-gripping-the-extension kind of deal. Fair play, I have some pretty reasonable grip strength, but that's a little concerning, I'm mildly surprised it hasn't tried to spit one out. Ah well, they were the right spec at least, and while they didn't look at all bad, new ones are in *and torqued up*, half a gallon of Mobil 1 bunged in to replace the black muck that was in there previously (seriously, the oil capacity is like 3L) and all the filters changed. Also, my dad (who's basically the reason I like Pandas in the first place) explaining to my mum "...it's an Italian hatchback, you basically drive it with your foot to the floor everywhere..."  - going to have to let him have a go in it, given it's literally twice the power of the Pandas he's used to back in the 80s.Need to see if there's an easy option to get rid of the throttle-cut-on-brake-application nonsense, though. Who the gently caress designs that poo poo? Have you ever actually tried to hustle a FWD car? gently caress's sake... Previa_fun posted:Step four is to make inventory of fuel and snacks
