What for? You can find plenty of PDF manuals on-line if you need them for repairs or maintenance schedules...
Are you just going for the manual just to have it?
Yeah... I just feel naked without one in the glove box...Quote:

I'll try to find the PDF links...
Here's a link to wiring diagrams, a VIN decoder, and a nice list of possible mods you can try... ::Flag::
But you need a laptop to view the PDFs...how much does that weigh?Quote:

So, uh, you know... just the li'l ol' handy-dandy economy-size owner's manual will do, so I can look up fuses and light bulbs and filters and stuff from time to time when I need to replace such things.
:roll:
Yeah, and? If there's a question, the book will have it all and you can free up the space in the miniscule glove box for more important things. If you feel so inclined, stow a small tool box with a couple of extra bits in the trunk and you'll be better off.Quote:

It's perfectly OK to suggest someone gets what they need rather than what they ask for, but it is bad form to not even acknowledge the existence of what they ask for. ::stfu::Quote:

:scratch:
I'm going to start drinking heavily and wait for this alleged ice storm...
Oops... sorry. Here you go.
Finally! A breakthrough! Thanks, Titus... I'll keep an eye on it.Quote:

I wouldn't. Still a 1.6. Chances are it is valid (unless you're really retentive ;) ).Quote:

You're right Sammm. How else would I know how to adjust the seat? Or adjust the mirrors? Or check the oil level? Or work that danged difficult cigarette lighter?
Yep, better keep it.
That's the best piece of advice I've seen in this whole thread.Quote:
