Yeah as a rule, I normally NEVER even work on a car without the stands, but I wasn't at my house, so I didn't have my jack, stands, or regular tools... was at my Father-in-laws house... : \

how the eff did you get the car off of you?!
The only Ace and Napa are a good 30 minute ride away... oh well, I love riding the bike, so I'll head that way on my next off day!
*OFFTOPIC* So I got the HID in my bike and I love it, so I set off to do them in my 2010 Civic today. I read about it for a couple days before attempting it, I love to research so it makes it easier. It was cake... but you have to take off the front tire to get to the back of the headlight...
To take of a tire, you must jack up the car... SO I figured, why not just use the BRAND NEW Honda Jack that the care came with... so I got the driver side up, the tire off and set to work, and then suddenly, POW the jack broke, and the front disk brake landed on my leg (Left Calf)... Lots of blood and pain, and an epic battle scar... after I cleaned it all off, it dosen't look NEARLY as bad... and It dosen't hurt at all anymore. I can walk and I'm ok, its just a flesh wound...
I laid my Civic down before I laid my bike down... I think that's a world first... Imma upload pics of my leg soon haha

I heard the Jack start to break and moved my leg from under the controll arms and break disk... Not far enough though... It got me pretty good... It's bruised up the size of a pancake... Lol
Another saving grace, when I had removed the wheel, I laid it very close to the car, about mid way, and the frame fell on the tire and that kept the frame from coming all the way down onto my leg and pinning me... Luck I guess, that or guardian angels do exist...
