This kit worked great, very simple and includes the tool and even a great towel to dry your windshield. Much cheaper than retail stores. Highly recommend. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GY55B5S?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details P.S. Why you might need to replace your rear wiper arm...

Update re loading kayak from the rear: I got tired of strapping the foam block the the car. I got a cheap bathroom rug with a rubber back, cut a piece of foam about 10" x width of rug, and taped that to the back of the rug for more protection. I place that over the spoiler and slide the kayak up...

Q1: According to the manual: "There is a manual key lock release. Locate the hole below the ignition lock. Insert a tool or key into the opening. Locate the lever, and press it toward the steering wheel while removing the key from the ignition." I found a small slot below where the key goes. Is...

So you keep a key fob in your glove compartment in case you lose your key. (Maybe risky in an area where car theft is common, but that's a different topic.) But how do you get back in your car? In the days of cheap conventional car keys you could have 4 or so keys stored in various places...

I had a blade made as a spare to open my car door. Anybody know where to get a head to attach to this blade? This is only to open the door, not to start the car. You can't turn the blade in the lock unless it has some kind of head on it for leverage.

It took me countless hours over the course of two weeks to find, buy, and install a GM roofrack on my Sonic hatchback and get my 13.5' kayak safely mounted on it. Why so long? Because: (1) The Sonic doors are funky and there is no Thule or Yakima clamp-on rack that fits them. (2) The GM rack has...

I don't use daytime running lights, so the panel lights are always at maximum brightness during the day. I want to turn them off during the day when I'm not using any lights. Dealer told me to put tape over the dashboard light sensor. I did that and it has no effect---can't dim the instrument...

For Sonic hatchback. On my previous car I have Thule square bars with the 480 Traverse footpack and Thule saddles. Apparently this doesn't fit the Sonic? Any suggestions for an affordable roof rack? $150 or less if possible. Are there any feet available that would fit my existing bars?

Is the spoiler on the Sonic hatchback strong enough to support the weight of a bike on this bike rack? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TRTSAZM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The spoiler seems pretty strong when I push down on it, but I don't want to damage it. I don't...

I'm confused about the Sonic's lights in general (even after reading the manual), but the first thing I want to do is turn the instrument lights way down low. I have a vision problem (light sensitivity) and the bright instrument lights hurt my eyes. I notice that when the headlights are on, I...
