Sticky: DIY a Thread addition

I'd like to keep the clutter down .....mod please put this over and the DIY section sticky ....even if it is just this single post, post #1..... ThanksI only posted threads that I thought were very helpful or informative.... Also the titles of these threads and links don't reflect all the information in them! For example a headlight DIY, also shows how to take off the front bumper, get what I'm sayingnow do something!

I just did this today. Rear end seems to be sliding around with traction control on. Didn't notice that before. 100% stock other than that.

Hey guys this is a good idea………..probably time to clear the clutter. What do you think about the way it was done in the C63 W204 forum? https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...-stickies.html

I'm happy to help tidy things up if you'd like.

The categories are a nice touch! I think most convenient though would just be a one line description above the link though. You have to put your mouse over each link and read the URL to figure out what it's for haha.
