Is that transmission from a BMW or MB? Or is it an Audi Quattro transmission?

Phone Mount
Here's my set up in the Infiniti. The magnetic mount is just a basic one from target or somewhere. I used liquid nail to fasten it. I think proclip sells one but I didn't get it at the time. Here phone mount is similar but I don't have a pic of it online or handy at the moment.
I have a phone case that doubles as a wallet for ID Cards/Credit cards, etc. and thus I put the metal plate for the magnet on the inside of the case and it doesn't interfere with the use of my case. On my wife's phone we simply attached it to the inside of the case and it there too, it still mounts to the phone without issue.
Not the first, I have one in all three vehicles now. They are by far the best and most well engineered pieces of simplicity. I used to do an air vent mount and still carry a magnetic version for when I rent cars, etc. as I have the magnetic mounts on my phone and my wife's phone and they work well on the ProClip.

Silly add-ons keep coming....picked up some nice all weather mats from Jeff Bezos. Nice quality soft rubber compound and near perfect fitment in the Jeep.

On my lunch hour I weeded the flower beds yet again and blew off the patios.

Cleaned up the Rogue. Exterior and interior. HD Speed, wiped down after with Beadmaker. WETS on the trim. First time using Gyeon Q2 on the tires, looks good, we'll see on durability. CG Silk Shine on the interior.

I went to fill up my gas tank this morning and for the longest time the air pump/nozzle has been broken at the gas station I go to.. It’s the only air pump around here that automatically fills your tires at whatever psi you set it to.
Unfortunately some idiot cut the nozzle off when they 1st installed it and it’s never been available to use...
Today I decided it’s been long enough and walked over to it so I could see whether they’ve fixed it yet and it looked fine to me, so I asked the girl if she could turn it on and I got the same old answer that “it doesn’t work, someone cut the nozzle off”... I asked if she was sure because it looks fine to me. She came out and I guess I had to be the 1 to break the news to her and probably everyone else who works at the gas station that it works now.
Anyways I was excited to use the thing because only 2 of my tire pressure monitors work [the front ones] and I haven’t properly checked the rears since I bought the car.. Turns out my rear tires were at 26 & 27 psi. Too low. I inflated all 4 tires to 31 psi as the sticker on the door jamb recommends and wow what an instant difference in ride quality. The Cadillac rides so smooth and I can already tell my gas mileage is going to improve now that all 4 tires are properly inflated.

Hey if this is what you did non detailing related, you’d become a bit intimidating with your detailing posts. Lol.

PS It took 20 freaking minutes plus to remove the darn love bugs off of the front bumper with Sonax bug sponge, Sonax bug stuff, multiple applications and a lot of elbow grease and they were only there for 2-3 days. If you walked through parking lots down here and saw the cars I see it would blow all of your minds the destruction these creatures do twice a year.

Is it worth considering getting one of those bras?

Been here since 1982, tried it all, they get ragged out and mold builds up fast with the humidity and rain and heat. And like Mike's suggestion about a rental vehicle, that would be like two months a year + of driving a rental vehicle which is a lot of money. It is what it is. The past two season were mild, this "bloom" as we call it was huge. Think about his post about the rental car about two weeks ago and love bugs were flying all around me still today.

So you used fhe Sonax bug stuff prior to a bucket wash? Or just the bug stuff with a bug sponge? Is that the best stuff you’ve tried?

I finally took the 15hr plunge and dismantled nearly my entire garage. Pics coming later but overall I'm 1/2 way done with painting!!! Made room for upto a 60" flatscreen and my extending my Sonus system into there too.
Bright White ceilings and light gray walls. Trim will likely be a darker grey with some white accents. Floor comes later this year and I think I've settled on Bullet Epoxy Product. it's not at all inexpensive but it appears awesome. I saw a 4 layer system applied in my buddies garage and it's museum quality. 3 layers of epoxy color and one layer of clear over it. Skid resistant and looks amazing.
I'll upload disaster pics next from tapatalk as I'm heading out to put all the cabinet stuff strewn on the floor away so I can begin taking on the other half (ceilings only) today.

Sorry, but they couldn’t take a minute to disconnect the propshaft?
Just did a clutch on an S4 with that style shaft a couple weeks ago; doesn’t take long to slip the propshaft off so you’re not torquing on the joints. Easier to deal with just the tranny too.

Ceiling is done. 2 coats and looking nice and bright. Left wall done and most of the one behind my work bench. I just have to move the bench and do that area. The right side is coming next.
Adding a 55" next to the inside door as a nice wall mount. 2 Sonos play 5 speakers going in too.
