Haven't checked here in over a week. They're FS on a local neighborhood app with some interest, but only stupid offers like me driving 40 miles just to give them away for free. I'll have to source a box for them in order to mail. Anyone local can make an offer to pick them up in the 34289 zipcode.

They are brand new. That's why I posted "Never Used". They were for my '03 Envoy which I never got around to installing. Where in the world do you see any wear on the drivers mat?? Oh well. Posting them on craigslist...

You mean like these? They have been in my garage for 8+ years now. Never used. Rubber-pointy thingies on the underside are all intact. The white spots you see are spiderwebs.

[SOLD] Thank you!

Nah. They have fee's too nowadays. Everyone has their hand out these days and it's just not worth the asking price of $40.

[SOLD] Bought this for a 2003 Envoy that I once owned, but it was never installed. It's unlocked /plug-n-play, single CD. Appears to be in perfect working condition. Been boxed up and sitting on a garage shelf since (I think) 2014'ish.

Cleaning out garage and found these. Bought back in 2012 for my '03 Envoy that I once owned. New, never installed, but one package has been opened by the previous seller. $50 shipped to the lower 48. Paypal only. They'll be mailed standard parcel via USPS. No PO Box addy's, please. Or, $35...

I was much more reckless when I was younger. I'd lay under vehicles and work on them with simply a hydraulic jack. And a cheap one, too. I had it in my mind that I was indestructible. Nowadays, I do exactly what Mooseman mentioned by utilizing two j-stands, a wheel, and a hydraulic jack (with...

During the two separate Lovebug seasons down here in Florida (may and oct), many locals recommend using any brand of dryer sheet on the windshield and front bumper to remove the nasty gunk. It actually works quite well. Love Bugs are no joke down here. Ask any seasoned Floridian.

I think I still have a few left over. I'll look once I get home later. Been a while since I sold them and I destroyed the molds last year due to lack of interest. I'll reply here later tonight with my findings...

...and I still have that bottle somewhere in my house. I'll never even think of tasting it! I stored it in a plastic ziplock baggie with a very-hearty note stuck to it.

A squirrel chewed the cooling fan harness on my previous '03 Envoy. Tried sprinkling cayenne pepper dry rub on the wires (after it was repaired), no dice. Bought a bottle of Mad Dog 357 No. 9 Plutonium and put a few drops of it on their favorite part of the wires. Not only did I not have any...

If you can remove the parts, soak them overnight in MetalRescue to see if it removes the rust. Once done, I'd either submerge the part(s) in motor oil, have them powdercoated/galvanized/anodized, or apply a durable epoxy paint to protect them from getting any worse. That MetalRescue stuff...

Oh, BTW, excellent job on clearing the curb rash up!!

Powdercoating is probably the most durable finish you can do with those rims but it can be a bit expensive and (of course) the tires cannot be mounted during the baking process. Sharkhide is good stuff, but it does not last too long once submitted to the elements, especially if you use any kind...
