A. That's a lot of crap.
B. I need a garage, lol.

I probably need to just reorganize and have a summer pack and a winter pack.

Lolz i need to snap a pic of my trunk. Its like a garage on wheels(also do not have a garage lolz)
I have 3 plastic boxes on the back against each other, and 3 in the front lolz

On the back...
1-Jug of oil, 2xbottle of atf, bottle of brake fluid, bottle of PS fluid, bottle of premixed coolant, small anti sieze container and my coilover wrenches
2-Assortment of spray cans of WD40, Silicone Spray, DeepCreep, Seafoam, PB Blaster, Interior deodorizer, Stoners Invisible Glass, Premixed water/soap in a spray bottle
3-Booster cables, 12v air pump, Meguiars quick wax, Eagle one quick wax, Meguiars Tire Shine, Armor All Tire Shine, Meguiars Rim Cleaner, Cotton Metal Polish Can, Rim/wheel wax

On the front...
1-About 30-40 clean washed M/F cloths and other towels/rags
2-Dirty/to be washed M/F cloths
3-Empty to throw things in in a rush
Also tucked on the sides is 1 tool box(20 screwdrivers, special sockets, clamps, allen keys, screws, nuts etc), 1 torque wrench, 1 beam torque wrench, 1 set of Metric/Sae deepsockets, 1 full ratchet/socket box. With the spare wheel is a scissor jacked tucked to the side along with the normal jack on the cubby.

Yeah, it sucks not having a garage. Hell, even when I had one I still had crap in my trunk, lol. I could bring some of it inside the house but I just hate useless clutter, lol.

Impressive setup, Mikey.

By 'chemicals', I assume you mean fluids for topping up?
Actually it's more like rain-x, window cleaner, wax, acrylic-solve. Lol. I've never needed oil or washer fluid on the fly.

I don't carry any of that in the trunk of my car, mostly because there isn't room for much(less so after the box gets rebuilt).

Levin(001Stunna) is who I should probably call before CAA(Canadian equivalent to AAA)!

I would still recommend carry a bottle of the basic fluids though, you just never know.

The wife was quite happy when I packed up the fluids/tools for the trip to Boston/RI. Thankfully, we didn't need anything, but always handy to have, JIC.

I just like to be prepared for surprises on the road lol. On a recent trip to Windsor for a wedding and a visit to Tam's shop(same weekend you you had your install day) the JB Weld I had in the trunk saved my *** from being stuck along side the highway. A small radiator crack I had plastic welded before became a 10cm gash. After smearing on JB weld and getting it inside the crack, and pulling over to a restaurant for lunch to let it dry, it was back to perfect condition and great for the next 2-3 days until i changed it because I wanted to, not because it was leaking anymore.

Wow, haha. Impressive use of the trunk. I can't stand having a bunch of stuff in it, I like it to be clean and clutter free when I open it. And I hate hearing stuff rolling around back there. All I have is the spare, jumper cables, 1 qt of oil, jack + tools, auto tranny range switch, bungee cord, winter mats, twine, and a snowscraper.

I first started with one box lol, but that one box would always fall over so with 6 boxes and the tool box(s) they all keep each other from moving lolz.

Post number 2000!

Swift springs should be coming in about a few hours or minutes I hope!

Shouldn't take any more than 2 hours doing all fours.

Well all this talk of trunk organization made me want to clean mine out. It had gotten really bad, to the point where I hadn't seen te bottom in weeks :lawl:

Car was parked far away, so went to get it, and snapped a pic because it looked good.

Then brought it home to the garage, where there's two other V6 coupes. 6,7, and 8th gens. And the RDX... And my roommates Camry...

Then cleaned the trunk and stored my hood bra and cleaning supplies in...
