you are indeed a better man than I - whilst i relish the idea of having a go at anything mechanical on my car (makes them sooo much more rewarding to drive IMHO) i feared the combination of fabric, metal braces and the fact that i know nothing about it - the thought of saving several hundred $ to do the work myself was attractive, but the boss suggested that i not take a gamble like that - she knows me well enough for me to heed her advice.
