Re: Speedometer gear
Was it working before this happened? You could get a dental mirror and look down into the hole and see if it is in there.

Re: hood pop-up springs
... just a bit to MY satisfaction, I wanted the hood to drop just like Amos did on the video. After three tries I nailed it. That's me just being OCD I had this drilled in me when working as a 12 year old at my cousin's dental laboratory. It still makes me crazy when I see something that is not right.

Re: How to remove front turn signal indicator bulb
... a spring loaded terminal. There are a couple of small holes in the side of the socket that you can pick at to pull the socket out. If you have a dental pick or something similar, it would be trial and error (mostly error) until you caught the hole. Then a straight out pull.

Re: Antenna location
... PO about it he told me that the car was on the lift. Not paying attention to the low ceiling the antenna hit the top. I did manage to use a heavy three prong pliers to strengthen it out.
