Luck at the junk yard!!!
yes, i have stolen things from junkyards. i can only think of one thing, though.... it was a cadillac hood ornament of all things . anyway, stealing is bad! i'm not trying to get on your case, but i think that the right thing for you to do is go back there and give them some money. it's not going to make it completely better, but stealing is stealing. i don't like it when people steal from me, and I hold myself to high moral standards. i DO NOT steal from people. but that's just me. you're not me

clutch noise when disengaged
IIRC, the throwout bearing only makes noise if the clutch is disengaged, when it is depressed. i believe it to be the input shaft bearing based on this assumption. my car does the same thing, so if that's NOT the answer.....

Rep. JDM head light covers instalatioon
IIRC, the fibreglass buckets are correct for your year. i personally like the fibreglass ones better, because for me it's easier to patch FG than it is to pound out metal

Michael Vick sued for $63 billion..... and he joined Al-Quaeda
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,293268,00.html South Carolina Inmate Hits Michael Vick With '$63,000,000,000 Billion Dollar' Lawsuit Alleging Al Qaeda Ties Wednesday, August 15, 2007 Embattled NFL quarterback Michael Vick, facing federal charges related to his alleged participation in dogfighting, has been hit with a "$63,000,000,000 billion dollar" lawsuit filed by a South Carolina inmate who alleges the Atlanta Falcons star stole his pit bulls and sold them on eBay to buy "missiles from Iran," FOX News has learned. Jonathan Lee Riches filed the handwritten complaint over "theft and abuse of my animals" on July 23 in the U.S. District Court in Richmond, Va. Riches alleges that Vick stole two white mixed pit bull dogs from his home in Holiday, Fla., and used them for dogfighting operations in Richmond, Va. The complaint goes on to allege that Vick sold the dogs on eBay and “used the proceeds to purchase missiles from the Iran government.” The complaint also alleges that Vick would need those missiles because he pledged allegiance to Al Qaeda in February of this year. “Michael Vick has to stop physically hurting my feelings and dashing my hopes,” Riches writes in the complaint. Riches wants $63 billion dollars “backed by gold and silver “ delivered to the front gates to the Williamsburg Federal Correctional facility in South Carolina. Riches is an inmate at the facility serving out a wire fraud conviction. FOXNews.com attempted to contact Vick, but neither he nor his spokesman could be reached for comment. FOX News' Ian McCaleb contributed to this report. Link to HANDWRITTEN filing: http://www.foxnews.com/projects/pdf/riches_jonathan_file.pdf
