Chu, you can drill into the fiberglass, just put some duct tape over the area you want to drill on both sides. It'll help hold the filler and fiber together and drill it at a high speed with light pressure. You might cook the bit holding it lightly but it shouldn't blow out the back that way.

It's better to use a thread insert for this type of thing since a helia-coil can thread right into the motor.. A thread insert has a method of keeping the threads in place without spinning on the head.

I'm not very educated on the difference between the two. Whichever works best is the one I want.

Anyone looking for some entertainment?

btw petey, since no one bit on your earlier post. a bar crawl would be an awesome idea. are you talking about one that is organized through a company or all of us renting a limo for the night and hitting up several places in the city? the second idea is always a fun one that involves lots of guestlists which i can take care of if something gets planned. i've been dying to do something like that since my bachelor party.

pete, you just answered my question. i thought u pass me today (not in my evo). saw a silver evo right by the 202 bypass in frazer with what looked like enkei following some riced out black car and a tricked audi. guess no such luck...

any of you guys on here have a blackberry? all of the sudden evom went to "mobile mode" everytime i log on my fone, and it wont allow me to go to any links. never did that up until a few days ago and its killing me being away from my comp cant check the status.

I agree. Spring had the worst service of the 3 carriers I used. Lines kept getting dropped, customer service was a joke and the cost was way higher than the rest. When I finally cancelled, they told me it would be shut off in a few days. 3 months later I got a bill for $400 and threats that it was going to a credit collection agency. Not a single bill came in between and I had long since lost the cancellation confirmation # I had received. I spent HOURS arguing with reps over a month long period, then supervisors and finally a regional supervisor. They told me they would fix it, then a month later I got yet another bill for the $400. I called back up and they told me (after another hour and a half of arguing) that they decided not to end the dispute and that I had to pay the $400. Sprint is F'n unbelievably **** poor.

I cerrently have a sero plan with sprint, I suggest you drop your old plan and get a sero plan..You can save hundreds over the course of a year or two with it, even thousands. Sprints best phone is the HTC diamond touch pro imho..
