putting in a neon light in the cab of my old truck and trying to use a drop light with no cover to see what i was doing and then smelling something burning and realizing the bulb burnt a hole in my seat
installed a cd player in a grand prix and hit something and didnt have any dash lights for about 6 months. installed a tape player in an older escort and when ya turn the radio on the parking lights come on too

Ok so I've been driving a stick for like three years, and like 2 years ago (when I had my integra) I had been driving only the integra. My mom wanted me to take her car to the car wash (98 4runner limited 4x4). Anyhow, I backed it out of the driveway in reverse, had my left foot on the brake (thoguht it was the clutch). Tried to clutch in, brakes locked and I went sliding down the driveway. My mom looked at me like, "WTF???".
HAHA, when you get so used to things you just forget, I caught the left edge of the brake with my left foot thinking it was the clutch, and when you clutch in you clutch in hard so it was equiv to slamming on the brakes.
I felt like a blundering idiot.

I installed my CAI last weekend. I get in to take it for a spin, and it seems like the gas pedal won't go to the floor. I press it again, and the damn thing starts redlining! I quickly shut it down, and throw open the hood to find the throttle lever stuck on one of the clamps for the new intake! Just goes to show, make sure all moving parts have a free path before turning over the engine
