    Q for the Auto Mechanics here: Best Oil Filter? and worst? and what does dealer use?

    Honda's oem supplier is Honeywell and another company (can't think of the other company's name right now). But it is not Fram. The only time we use aftermarket filters is for used cars (non Acura/Honda). Most of the aftermarket filters are smaller than oem filters.

    How would you clamp the door switch down?

    Large spring clamp or large clothes pin. You don't want a lot of tension or the switch could break. I have seen spcial clamps in the tool catalogs. I believe they are called "sanity clamps" so you don't go insane listening to the door chime.

    How would you clamp the door switch down?

    Unscrew the 8mm head bolt under the rubber cover. Honda/Acura door switches use that bolt as the ground.

    Help me decide on a new cordless brushless drill please (bosch or milwaukee)

    Their warranty is outstanding. Last winter i had to send in my 3/8 fuel impact because when i pulled the trigger the leds just flashed and nothing else. Sent it in and got it back within a week.

    How much did this tool box sell for new?

    It is the same as the mac toolbox, just different name plates. I had the mac version for about 13 years before I got my toolvault elite. I think the husky went for about 800-900 new.

    Should I buy a Craftsman No. 2 or a No. 3 Phillips Bit socket for Honda door screws?

    I use a #3 screwdriver. They are just like rotor screws, if you use a #2 they will strip out.

    Extreme 72 inch tool box and strictlytoolboxes review

    I have the toolvault elite and absolutely love it. It is not flimsy at all. You can always call strictlytoolboxes and see if they can change the bottom drawer setup. The bottom drawer doesn't bother me. Plus I wanted the upgraded casters, stainless top, and dual slides. Those addons to the...

    Borrowing tools at the shop...

    I agree with what everyone else has said. The past 3 hourly kids I have trained all have had to borrow some tools from me for the first month or so. We understand it's an exspensive profession to get into and you won't be able to afford everything you need at once. I also wanted to say...

    Anybody have the Viper Pro 72" tool box?

    I bought the ToolVault Elite a few months ago from strictlytoolboxes.com and absolutely love it. Even though it's built in PRC, it's built like a tank.

    Montezuma Elite vs Tool Vault Elite

    I also wanted the 3rd long drawer, that's why I went with the ToolVault. Even though it's a thinner gauge, the thing is built solid.

    Montezuma Elite vs Tool Vault Elite

    I purchased the ToolVault elite a lil over a month ago. I love this box. It really is the best bang for your buck. The drawers feel really solid. My only complaint is that some of the detents don't feel as secure as the others. I have to play around with them. Next year I plan on adding...
