    If I was going to Dublin VA (which I am eventually I hope) where might I find a sprinter oil cap wrench and maybe a reasonably priced coolant circulation pump on the way? Someone in Odessa TX got a very nice set of 50 dollar genuine Channelock pliers I suspect...they aren't still under my sprinter

    Replacing my dash speakers with kicker 41DSC44, originals (torn to hell) say made in italy...out of coffee filters it looks like (used) To anyone interested - buy at Walmart, pull on the middle of the gray pillar to remove, work the plastic covers off, pry up old speaker and burn it so no one...
