Replace Dash Lights in Subaru

I noticed that I could no longer make out the RPMs on the right side of my dash. I took this opportunity to learn how to replace the dash lights which was easy.

Steps to follow:

1) Remove the 2 screws located on the top of the dash coil
2) Remove the coil from the dash with the steering wheel adjusted to lowest setting
3) Remove the 3 screws holding the dash to the car
4) Pull out the dash to access the three wiring harnesses
5) Remove the connectors on the wiring harness from the dash
6) Locate the bulbs that are burnt out. (This can be done by shining a light in a light hole with the bulb removed)

I recommend replacing all of the bulbs that are related to back-lighting the dash as these are on whenever you turn your headlights on.

I also recorded a video of my endeavors!

This was on my 2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS which has about 136,000 miles on it.

2017 Chicago Auto Show

Dan and I decided on a Saturday evening at about 6pm that we would drive 6 hours to visit the Chicago Auto show.  We had never been to it and heard that it is one of the largest auto shows in the country.  This was intriguing and we had an opportunity to ride in style.

This video encapsulates the experience from waking up in the morning at 8am (After arriving at 1am) to eat breakfast with the most efficient wait staff.  It also shows a lot of different cars and the discussion of what we enjoyed the most.
