    My driver's side mirror has become loose/wobbly recently. My guess is that I need to take the little painted sticker off and jam some kind of screwdriver in there to tighten it. Has anybody tightened their mirror before?

    Alcantara headliner

    The headliner on my hardtop came crashing down a while ago. I finally got around to getting it reupholstered. I ended up going with black Alcantara and it looks really nice. I tried to take some pictures to post, but it's difficult to capture the material in photographs. The place where I got...

    Meat, the internal combustion engine of food

    Roadster CHAdeMO?

    I had heard that Tony Williams was building a CHAdeMO charger for the RAV4EV (which uses something like a 50-ish kWh Model S battery pack). From watching this clip, it sounds like it's adaptable to other cars. I'm not really interested in charging my Roadster with CHAdeMO (or supercharging it)...

    Error code chatter in vehicle logs
