First pic I've seen of the whole shebang. I'm not even gonna begin to guess what that gray thing does. Unless it is split and opens to fit over the tubing, I don't see how it could be a release tool.

Oh well, Pawpaw is covered one way or another with his orders.
the grey tool is a fuel line release tool but it's for the metal kind like what is used up on the intake the one that has the 2 metal clips going from a metal line to a braided line (I think)

so apparently in 2 years all new vehicles sold the USA will be required to have adaptive headlights, not sure if that will be a nuisance or not, might blind the crap out of someone on a corner coming the other direction on some dark road. I bet it will make headlights expensive as hell though having to be tied into the steering.

Just another thing to increase the price of buying and maintaining a new vehicle, and a way to get people out of cars and into public transportation. It's part of the plan....

Auto leveling lights/suspension would be better
Some way to prevent idiots from using high beams when another vehicle is within 500' any direction.

Drove it to Snowshoe, West Virginia, where we got hit with 24" of snow last weekend. It was among the best powder skiing I've had anywhere in the world, including Alaska, Montana, Colorado, Wyoming, BC Canada, and Switzerland. I carried tire chains but didn't need them and I don't think I ever spun a tire. No other vehicle I know of can carry 6 people, a dog, and all of their gear, in total warmth, comfort and safety through a blizzard.

My '10 CTS wagon had them. I like them but they are spendy to replace. I'd tossed around getting new ones to replace the ones on it because they'd started to get cloudy. They are literally $1,000 per light assembly to replace. Obviulsy, I decided against replacing them and just rocked what I had. I can only imagine the same is true on new cars if not even higher.

My daughters ‘18 Cruze headlights are $1200 apiece for OEM at dealer price, pretty sure most of the new ones are similar depending on the trim level. Hers are LED projectors with LED DRL and there’s 3-4 different trim level of headlights on the Cruzes. And they’re not even adaptive.

Europe has had adaptive headlights for years along with most other countries. I remember reading a couple years ago how far we are behind in headlight requirements compared to the rest of the world. Most headlights sold on American cars are junk that don’t work worth a sh*t, especially the lower end models. They’re dangerous to drive with in bad conditions.
