    Wow. What a moron.

    Yeah, the bulb lens comes out with a screwdriver pry in one of the pry corners. Takes 10 seconds to replace a bulb. How in the hell did an inspection guy not know that?!

    JW77 took the wifeys ML350 in for VA annual inspection today. I just did fresh tires and brakes. They say the wipers won't work, look at JW like he's a dumbass and slap a red "rejected" sticker on it. Before he leaves....he calls me, and I tell him to check fuses...etc......but....the 18 year old figured it out himself. They didn't shut the hood all the way. They took it back in...after he told them, and put the proper sticker on it..in it's proper place. Dumbasses!

    Do we need an inspection horror story thread? I had a Toyota dealership scrape a patch I did off of the radiator in my 4Runner during an inspection. They claimed the radiator was 'squirting fluid' and they couldn't pressurize the system -> therefore, I 'needed' a new radiator and received a $1000 estimate. I wanted to know why they'd pressurize the system for an inspection, how the area around my patch got scratched and shiny, and why I didn't see puddles or steam before the inspection.
