For those who may or may not get to see a copy of Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car Magazine, they run a column ever month called "In Our Garage". The editorial staff have 1-2 small articles each month about a project to keep their car on the road. This month Editor Mark McCourt mentions, on page 18 September issue, how he had an issue (immobilizer antenna) with his 2000 C70 coupe and how he got the fix from Robert Spinner's Youtube videos to do the easy fix. Hopefully those not aware of these forums will get a chance to meet Robert through Youtube
By the way, thanks Robert for all the help with your videos. I'm getting ready to do the evaporator next week in my son's car no thanks to the courage I've acquired from your videos. I can't tell you how many times I avoided the shop (and kept my wallet in my pocket) with your help. I hoped to thank you in person at Carlisle but missed you.

Woot Woot, give him the props he so deserves! Let the followers of other makes be jealous for what we have...MVS, RSPI etc...
Robert, I know that's not why you do it brother, credit where credit is due, but you do His work so well.

Just used Robert's video to pop my console in like two seconds, dropped the headliner in an hour a few weeks back.
What seems intimidating in text and pictures becomes reassuring and inspiring in Robert's videos. I never start a project without checking Robert DIY to see if he's done and documented it already.
