Change PS belt
PS belt to tight/loose (constant squeak)
Outter tie rod

I want to see a seized bolt removal thread. Bolts that are so stuck (like mine) that you might/will have to cut everything out. And then how to tap them out after you've cut them.

Drill down the middle of the bolt, Apply heat and use a bolt extractor to remove it.

One of the best ways. Soak in pblaster for a couple days, dry off and take a torch (propane sometimes works, but doesn't produce as much heat)

^Forgot to add that part in there, Soak it in pblaster regardless of the method you use.

Here's to hoping you're still taking requests.

I'm interested in a DYI of the door rubber molding removal and installation of new ones. Personally, I own a '95 GSR coupe and need to complete this project before all the summer Florida rains arrive.

Thanks

Which door molding are you asking about. The door seal?
I guess. There is only one rubber piece that goes around the door. The part that I purchased has plastic studs on it that pinch into the corresponding holes in the door. However, I've read conflicting DIY online that talk about glues or oils to keep the rubber from cracking / drying out, etc.
