Hi all, hope you don't mind putting up with a few dumb newbie questions. I already did a search, and got some mixed answers. I figured that by posting an actual thread I might get advice more specific to my problems.
My 92 Accord has been relatively problem-free since I bought it about 2 years ago. However, there are a few minor annoyances I've had with it. I didn't really bother fixing them while I was at school, but now that I've graduated and have a job, maybe I can afford to fix a few things.
First problem, this is fairly new, my left-side headlight went out. Is it pretty easy to replace? I would imagine that its pretty straightforward. I can probably just go to AutoZone and do the change in the parking lot I guess... right?
Second problem, this has been since I bought the car. The passenger's side lock can't be controlled by the power locking mechanism. I always have to lock/unlock it manually. Not the biggest problem, but a nuisance for sure. Would a repair shop charge much, since I figure it might involve getting into the wiring and all to figure it out?
Third, I've got some rust on the fenders in front of both rear wheels. If I went to a paint shop, I assume they'd charge some huge amount, so its probably not worth it for this, though its definitely unsightly.
Fourth, an even more unsightly problem is the bumpers, front and rear, which have both been scuffed since I bought them, I have no idea why. The car is white, and the scuff marks are all black, so it looks pretty bad. My only guess is that the girl who owned it before me was a
horrible parallel-parker or something. Again, not sure if its worth having them painted.
I'd like to hold on to this car for as long as I can, and I'd like for it to look as nice as I can get it. Anyways, thanks for any help you guys can provide.
(Also if anyone here is registered on vwvortex, I'm on there with the same name as well.)
Thanks
