After fitting the HZJ78 into the garage (yay!) we celebrated and came up with the name... Aussie misspelled as Ozzi. Troopy just sounds too... silly? (Sorry, not trying to get a TROOPY plate - though I have a feeling it is probably already taken - HZJ78 was (!))
The next day, went to the supermarket and Canadian Tire to get a light bulb for the dome light (burnt out) and the relay for the DRLs. Luckily the garage is 8" and I had a co-pilot to enter/exit the garage.
Then I went about setting up the out-of-province exam... I had arranged insurance beforehand, all sorts of other things, but neglected to consider how busy garages are. Luckily the specialist shop here made it possible to do the Out of Province exam (OOP) on Monday.
Project for the evening was to remove the tinting from the front windows... I don't like tinting at all, and it's also something that would cause automatic failure on the exam. It was quite easy to remove - clothes steamer and exacto knife - a bit of patience and voila. Then a little more time with Goo-Gone and window cleaning solutions to get them nice and clean. What a beautiful sight - windows super clear (and what a huge difference!).
The next day, I replaced the dome light. Again, a small thing but a nice feeling of accomplishment.
