That is good to know. I had considered a first gen XC60, but they can not fit 2 sets of golf clubs into the back with cars without lowering the back seats. I can get 4 sets in our 06 XC70, 00 V70R and our 03 Toyota 4Runner. The newer gen XC60 is slightly out of my price range but the seats look bett...

I need the vents to help cool my brain! :lol: :lol: I decided to forgo the boots while doing the 5 minute air filter job, the job where it took 45 mins including cleaning the air box as it was full of crap internally. Probably never been cleaned in 19 years! Neil. That’s OK, I’m not the best with P...

This reminds me of Volvo's radio codes and the thousands of hours of aggregate owners' wasted time in the last 30 years trying to find codes. Who is going to steal a double-din factory radio?! No matter how good they sound, they're DOUBLE DIN.

In vtls post you can see the two command lines used at the top. He is using gcc to compile seed-gen.c source code into a program called seed-gen. In the second command line he is running this program from the current directory (.) with a known good pair of seed and key to get a list of all the pin c...
