Was adding a few DIYs to the pinned threads and noticed that a few I has missed PDFing no longer had images in them due to hosting accounts being deleted. This is one of the reasons I usually try to PDF anything pinned and include a link to the PDF. A better solution would obviously be converting them to static write ups but that is time consuming. I decided to suck it up and not have brought on some people to help with the archiving of these how tos. With the added resources I can finalize a tier reward system. Anyone who submits an orginal DIY or review to me via e-mail that we do not already have will receive a membership level upgrade. IE member to supporting members, supporting member to lifetime, or lifetime to gold. Anyone who submits a video along with it will receive two levels. If you rather I can issue a 5 dollar paypal gift certificate for a review, or a 10 dollar paypal gift certificate for videos. DIYs need to have at least 4 images 1000px wide or larger. If you wish to submit anything, please send it as a doc with images seperate zipped to webmaster@volvospeed.com

You still want me to make that 99+ t-belt/CVVT hub setup video?

If so, will I get a raise when I do? :D

We need a quality one. Not cating stones, just seen lots of rigged jobs. We can do partial credit if nothing else :P

Zip the images along with a .doc file and send it my way. I will get you hooked up.

A lot of good reviews and DIYs coming in. As a reminder these should be orginal content. Last few I took I know are posted else where. I went ahead and gave credit, but future submissions need to be orginal.

Forgot to add one thing. Door panel is also held on by two torx screws hidden underneath the interior door handle. Use a bone tool to remove the handle cover. On 04s and older the handle splits in 2. On the 05s+ there is a plastic inlay in the handle. I checked my original .doc and it wasnt in there so its my fault. Just wanted to make sure its complete for the site!

They (VS) wax their cars? I thought the lastest craze was to wrap them in viynl so the paint is flat. At least thats what won the IPD show.
