Car parts are like the one mechanical thing where the YouTube walkthroughs don't have Indian accents, they have southern accents
I was changing a headlight on Darwin and part of that involved removing the grille and they were all like “you’ve got to remove these clips first, you just ::camera has NO view on what’s going on:: get your screwdriver under there and pry up…”
And I was like WHERE? There were like six things and 3 force vectors each that could be. Worse than trying to interpret old GameFAQs walkthroughs, at least when those shifted to YouTube you could SEE where they were talking about.
Maybe “a clip” was just a standard thing in ‘80s auto assembly and it was like that XKCD “even when experts are trying to compensate for it they radically overestimate civilian familiarity with their field” bit
