James Smith recommended removing the rocker panels to check for rust and I am finally getting around to it, the three flat tip screws on the bottom are not cooperating and I'm resisting taking the vice grips to them, any suggestions? I ordered my new tires today, decided on the Bridgestone Potenzas, they rated very high on Tirerack and fellow enthusiasts gave them a thumbs up, will let you know my impressions after the first 100 miles, which will be at least April unless we have a warm March, which is rare, do I dare say yeah to global warming!

Hey Ian, I had the same problem you had, I soaked over night with penetating oil, but still had to use vice grips on two. AA has the new instalation kit that has all new screws rubber washers and everything else you need, well worth the price. John (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
