Been there done it ,got the movie and the T-Shirt.


Btw, I put a little anti-sieze compund on mine when re-installing it.
It seems to get some corrosion around the base.

I've also done it. Works pretty good for the most part. I will agree with mil1ion about the anti-seize. They are bad about the base getting corroded and not wanting to move later on in vehicle life.
