That is one heck of a run on sentence. Hard to read. You want to know how to tighten the bolts, while still up on jackstands? What is preventing you from putting the car on the ground?

It works on my PC, although not with IE 10.

Using Chrome it works just fine, although I couldn't find what I was looking for, I don't think its a software issue.

On a swap like this, how would the S4 harness deal with his '98 climate control and cruise control and other cockpit electrical items? Anyone have any experience with that? I'm contemplating such a...
