Tracked down a starter connector for my neighbor today, and it occurred to me this might be a useful thing to tell people about.

If an electrical connector on your car breaks, lots of shops won't have access to the parts to rebuild or replace just the connector. I've had parts stores have no listings for any wiring bits, and dealerships for some brands quote me a whole harness (usually over a grand just for the part) for a broken connector.

Wreckers, on the other hand, don't usually care about whole harnesses, because they're too hard to take out in one piece.

So if you need a connector replaced, see if you can find a wrecking yard who's willing to cut out the one you need with a few inches of wire attached for you. Usually they're only charging you for the time it takes to go get it, since they don't usually save them.

Bonus points if you know a thing or two about cars and know what you're looking for, because usually wreckers I've worked with just send me out with an apprentice to cut it out myself. That way I get exactly what I'm looking for and they don't have to look for it.

Anyway, this is maybe the one thing that has saved me the most money as a mechanic. Hopefully somebody here gets some mileage out of it.

#car advice #mechanic things #mechanical advice #automotive #cars #honestly if you can fix a cord on an appliance you can replace an automotive wiring connector #just use heat shrink crimp connectors (or solder and shrink tube if you're fancy)#and match up the colors #easy

PHAETHON

#zzz #zenless zone zero #wise #belle #phaethon #*mgif #i think the wise gif was recorded without the color filter on so thats why it looks more saturated??#but i spent like 5 hours just recording both of them because the files kept disappearing #and i cant be bothered to do that all over again #which makes me sad bcs i wanted these to match so bad but i dont have the energy anymore</3 #fellow ccs #do you guys record with obs or another recorder #because mine can only go up to 1080p #and i know some can go up to 2k

pin-up

b&w originals

#my art #basslinegrave art #venture bros #dr. girlfriend #dr. mrs. the monarch #the monarch #henchman 21 #ok so. pin up and pinned butterflies. tell me thats not the best idea ever #did i manage to pull it off how i wanted? maaybe? i do like these but i wish i had used the same color settings for all #when using the howsitcalled. gradient map things. because they dont look as uniform #but i was lazy to redo dr mrs especially plus i like how she looks i just couldnt get monarch and 21 the same #also somehow these look better and more colorful on my pc?? usually its on my phone i dont know what happened #also i ended up adding one colored thing to each because i first colored in dr. mrs' eyes #then realized the other two dont have colored eyes but 21 has the red lenses. but monarch??#i only went over the logo on his chest a bit with a more reddish color but its not too visible so well #imagine its better and they all match properly...#hope i got the butterfly names right #those were last minute additions after i learned about the viceroy butterfly yesterday #dr mrs is a queen butterfly #ask to tag #suggestive #wanted to put that as one of the top tags but i wrote it with a typo so i hope tumblr picks it up this low #also forgor to say i put my crunch handle on these cause they were meant to go on that blog ignore that #i think i forgot to add one to monarch or i hid it that well lmao #my 2 braincells rubbed the wrong way

gem, what happened to your eye?

(wanted to upload this panel separately, original is from this comic)

#my art #geminitay #secret life #icr exactly when but there was this moment earlier in the series #where someone asked gem what was up with her eye (because her skin had one green eye and one yellow eye)#and her response was smth like 'i'm yellow now!'#and i was like wait that's SO GOOD #bc there's an established tradition of ccs changing their skins to match the color of their current life #so the person (scott i think?) was obviously asking about the eye that was still *green*#but her answering that way implies she took the question to mean 'why did your eye color change'#because /the other one isn't her eye/

Graphic design is my passion

-

So I wanted to make these kinda look like a 50’s ad for a department store or something like that…really tried to utilize how nice the character designs from Clone High really are 💕

Gideon to match Harrow 😗✌️

#the locked tomb #gideon nav #gideon the ninth #gideon the 9th #gideon the first #griddlehark #things ive made #you can REALLY tell where my sympathies lie if you look at them side by side I feel like lmao #also I tried to make the art style for Gideon softer on purpose but it ended up looking just inconsistent I feel like #the colors too #like I wanted to change the color scheme for a warmer one but ended up not matching with harrow too much so I had to change it back #and compromise #so it’s not similar enough but also not different enough #idk man idk

Fire Keepers --- Since this is the third one I've made for this cross-campaign theme, I guess it's officially a series. Commence the links! Blue Healers | Wind Walkers

#critical role #critical role fanart #keyleth of the air ashari #caleb widogast #cross campaign series #i have 2 more ideas for the next one in the series but if anyone feels like a x-campaign combo makes sense feel free to shout at me #btw everybody paired up together are leveled up or down to be at the same level #and i try to match the designing style so they might look even more different #but i try to stick to the official sources i.e campaign art comic origins etc as much as possible #anyway keyleth's clothes seem to change colors like the leaves over the seasons the older she gets?#which is so cool <3 #art du chat

chanlix moments i think about a lot (9/?) - Channie's Room Ep.59

#his happy lil face #stray kids #chanlix #bang chan #lee felix #skz #skz gifs #my gifs #chanlixmoments #the thing is. its been a while since channie's room so i forgot how terrible that yellowgreen wall is to color #and this is a vlive rip which already makes it lq #so like. ignore everything but how cute they r ok? thanks #anw if u even care then chan goes on to say felix has always been there when chan was at his lowest and felix is like and u were there for #me when i got eliminated:D and chan is like WHY WOULD U BRING THAT UP but felix is like we went back to the dorms together #and chan goes “i felt so bad that day” and they talked about how they both still vividly remember it and how it was raining and it matched #the mood #and chan is biting his fingers the entire time and has to take such a deep breath to come out of it #anyway they love eo so so so much. isnt that crazy

pamper tiny chuuya tooo pleaseeeee (also can i see tiny verlaine and rimbaud) 🙏

I tinified them :)

#tiny chuuya pampering will come later #i suddenly felt the urge to pick animals for them #verlaine is based on a grey wolf (went instinct in france but started coming back from other countries btw)#(also something something metaphor for him being an attack dog/puppet before being freed and turning against his master)#rimbaud is a brown bear because he's cold and really we should let him bundle up and hibernate (no black bears in europe but whatever)#i didn't think i'd make these two as the first tiny skk guests yet here we are #also until now i hadn't noticed how their colors match #bsd #bungo stray dogs #bungou stray dogs #tiny skk adventures #bsd fanart #bsd paul verlaine #bsd arthur rimbaud #stormbringer #storm bringer #bsd stormbringer #ask answered #nawy's doodles

soulmark au sketches. the idea of sokka in proven ‘soulmates are real’ universes consistently intrigues me—how would that impact his skepticism/interpretation of fate/destiny/free will? personally i think he’d be very angry for a very long time and probably not even understand why

#my art #it’s just a ‘important moments in your soulmates life show up on u through kinda vague occasionally metaphorical marks #fuck i love soulmate aus lol #the clothes lean a lil fire nation/earth kingdomy i think but i was just riding the high of drawing #knowing if i stopped to do research i might just. stop entirely #so i just winged it #wung it. u could even say #anyways #sokka #avatar the last airbender #zukka #soulmate au #i imagine that in this au sokka zuko and probably aang all get matching ‘avatar beam of light!’ soulmarks #just giant white-blue beams all the way up their arm or leg or torso or somethin #cuz like. life changing moment for each of them lol #katara would get like. her own eyes or something representing her eye color for the moment aang wakes up and sees her #lol just saw i forgot to color his mouth in the first sketch lol
