I have only begun to add to the catalog, but it will never stop being added to!

Thanks!

Chris,
If you were paying attention |wink| you'd have seen the line at the bottom of the Tips page that reads:
"If you'd like to submit a Tip, please send an email to tips@C3VR.com"

So, the answer is Yes, and I'd love it if you did!

Thanks!

Hey Adam,

It would save some line time for us "56k-ers" if the category list was formatted somewhat like the forums list with the number of tips and tricks for each category. Seeing that type of info displayed right away would save a page refresh just to tell us that there aren't any items in the category.

FYI - Chilton's manual (#28500) in chapter 10 has a pretty good description and illustrations on door removal/adjustment.
