Better idea than I had.. Coffee always makes you think smarter and faster. 1 cup a day for me every morning. I think I just drink it for the taste now, I can literally drink coffee to fall asleep.

I will try your idea this weekend also..

I have to give you some credit for the idea, you got the ball rolling. Well the stealership is $635 richer and Im broke, but at least the Yaris rus perfect now and I am the owner of free camo Toyota hat. I didn't even complain about the price! Thanks again guys!
