Hahahaha!! Good one!!

The search feature is useful and it's always a good idea to try it first rather than ask a question that was just asked yesterday , but it does have its limitations.

Personally, I fail to understand why someone would even bother to post "this question was already asked x times on this forum" or "why don't you read the f'n manual." WTF? Why bother wasting time posting anything on a thread if you deem it beneath you and don't want to help the guy out?

Pfeww, now that I got that out of my system ... feel much better now, always meant to say something about that kind of comment

But I digress...

How old is old? I had a first gen. civic hatchback, 4 door, very, very much like Mad Max's pic. Mine was metallic green and had 4 doors and a hatch. I loved that little box! Pretty sure it was a mid to late 70's model, no later. I have some pics somewhere I really need to dig out for the forum.

If the poster searched for "What the heck IS this thingy???" he would have not found much on the site.

See, I can't think of anything I would put in the search engine to search for this. How about "thingy on bumper"? I'm at a loss.

I tried "what's that square hole in my bumper", that doesn't work either. If you have a question, then ask it..... why it bothers some I don't know.

I know what you mean. If you don't word the question exactly right, you might not get any info. Like I said, the search feature is limited.

A good thing from now on, someone will be able to enter "gerbil escape hatch" and fall right on this thread

Three threads actually.
