^ Makes me miss my old EL 
Sold it for far too cheap, with too many goodies still on it. Including oem Domani fog lights.
Nice to see someone showing some proper love to this gen EL

Yup...got them on all corners on the mazda (switchback fronts as my DRL) and you can see that chit from space. They are the only ones that still come through with direct mid day sun shining on them.

| Oil.. lots of oil
Inspiration from seeing all you DIYs, especially Jackp0t, only because we have same car, lead me to buying this. 2 oil changes.
Now, I need to find a oil filter wrench cap

First oil change Vulgar? You shouldnt need a wrench. If it's really stuck, stab it's with a screwdriver and take it off that way.
An alternative is one of those strap wrench things. Can be used to loosen a filter as well as many other things. Might as well get a do it all tool then something you may only use once.

Funny how you forget so fast. Sold my Bimmer 4 months ago  but my filter house just had a large bolt on top to loosen in.

36MM socket from Princess Auto $12
Since you have so many small bottles get a rectangular spout.. it is less messy and you can drain your bottles completely. Quote:

Now, I need to find a oil filter wrench cap | haha thanks!
No one is gonna put the care on your car like you would.
It doesn't matter if the tech/shop has alot of experience that doesn't mean they will be careful with your car.
9/10 if they mess up something on your car and you dont know a lick shit about cars they will take advantage of that.
Man i was eying that sweet deal on craigslist! Congrats
And you dont need the oil filter wrench you should be able to turn it with your hands. If you cant let the car warm up and try again.
It should only be hand tight the oil filter really

Haha, no sir, not first time doing oil change; but.. it will be first time on the 135. The thing is my car is still on the BMW free maintenance but this is my 4th year expiring in Aug and the car is telling me I don't have to change oil until next summer, but by then I will not have free oil change anymore. It is stupidly long. Then seeing Jackp0t work on his car, I just pull myself together to do the oil change now. I doubt they will change the oil for free in Aug for me.
I just order a CTA cap wrench from amazon.ca, which I think is cheaper than amazon.com Quote:

It should only be hand tight the oil filter really | So very true, it's stupid how a shop can mess up an easy job. Unfortunately I have to juggle how much time I have verses paying someone to do the work. Luckily summer days are much longer, giving more time to do things after kids go to bed.
Yeah, I picked up the CL deal because I was just about to pick up the oil from the states (btw, Walmart, in the States, carries the Mobil European LL-01 oil for $26/gallon only). What he offered was a very good deal, so why not.  | |

And the VLED side firing LEDs for my side markers are insanely bright for how small they are as well.
Also this. Going catless  will just need to get a custom fab test pipe.
