Whose going to be taking their coupe to the stealership to have the work done.

Myself, I'll take my chance catching on fire rather than letting the incompetents disassemble/resassemble a 1/4 of my car

Not sure if it only affects the '04, but I heard that if you have an '04 but it was manufactured in '05, then you should fine. Not sure if that's true, but that's what I've heard a few times.

But as for me, I'm going to take a chance on my car catching on fire than to let the dealership add to the annoying problems that I currently do have already.

step by step instructions and pics of what they have to do. I wouldn't trust them with that much work, especially if you have mods back there.

You can have an '05 built in '04, but NOT an '04 built in '05.

I think samco only has engine dress up hoses, not fuel filter hoses in the rear. And everything is free at the dealership which should be warrantied work, as opposed to $200 + labor for Samco hoses.
