Hi guys! Well I spoke to my buddy and he says no problem but he would like to leave at 6PM if it is possible. So noon to 6 is that ok? We can bring pizza and beer.He is located at the "Promenades Fleury" which is on Fleury and Papineau. I will try to get an address so that I can get driving directions for everyone.Is that ok?

Just a little detail: Is it a single place garage or can we put more at the same time??? If we can work on 2 cars at the same time, the afternoon should be plenty. If one at a time and we include pizza, it might be tight...

We can still do the small jobs outside near the garage though, no?

Never obvious to remove a front bumper to install a CAI when bolts and clips holding it are "hiding" under 3 inches of ice and slush...Also depending of the weather, working in the "minus's" outside doesn't help things either. If it's +10C we'll be fine Finally we have to take into consideration that replacing 4 springs in those conditions will take a few hours (maybe 3...)Do we have access to a hose? If yes, we could clean (hose down) excess crap from bumper (etc) before working on the cars...
Greetings from Denver Yes the garage does have a hose, that is where I usually wash my car and shoot the breeze with my buddies....Let me know if you still want to use the garage, and yes I do hope it gets warmer next weekend lol!

All is fine for me. If we don't have the time for the springs, there's no problem, I can still wait to install them. Otherwise I'll have the beer and my car.But probably no new antenna...

I'll try to be there....As I can see, people are looking for intalling springs, CAI and speakers... I made all this on my Vibe, so I can bring some expertise.BTW, do we have an air compressor and air tools avalable at the garage??? Otherwise I can bring mine.
Great! It would fantastic to see you again! We would need your expertise in the springs install I am coming home tomorrow and will post directions to the garage in a day or so

Indeed it would be nice to have somebody else that knows for the springs. Not that it's difficult, it's more time consuming...As for air tools, they would be appreciated for sure
Thanks Ben for stating that all remainning people are dumb-(removed).No it's a joke, I'll bring my camping chair, sit in it with a cold one and wathch you sweet and get your hand durty. And when the time come, serve you a cold one. At the end of your job ( no drinking at work).LOLAs for the air tools, if you can not come Sub-vibe-r, I probably could try to get some.

I will IM all of you my cell number in case you need more directions. Les Promenades start from Papineau corner Fleury. It is a strip mall with a Pharmaprix, Superclub Videotron, SAQ , a Metro etc. My buddy is the janitor and has a large garage in the back of this shopping center.Here is a map of the area:http://mq-mapgend.websys.aol.c...26%40Would it be easier if we all meet somewhere on the way? We can all drive down together? For the guys in the east end like Paul or Mike I can tell you exactly how to get there. For the rest of you I can meet you at the Julep....let me know!

I'm doing my best to be there... If I'm coming (and I'm working hard to be there) I'll bring my compressor and air tool as well as ratchet set, the 22mm socket needed to remove the front strut and the most important, the loose nut.

I just took a close look to the install instructions for my horn... I think I'm gonna have to forget it. You'll see tomorrow, but I think I won't be able to install it properly. I didn't buy all electric wires I need for it, because I what to make sur eI can do it first.
I'll be there.I'bring compressor, air tool, floor jack and all tool needed for the springs....BTW, I don't have stands, so if anyonem has, it will help.I will go directly to the garage. I will drop my gf in Anjou, so going to the Juled will make me drive longer for nothing.
