Ten years? I know a thirty-something techie that calls Task Rabbit when he wants a picture hung - or a furnace filter changed. He doesn't cook and won't walk three blocks to get something to eat, just has it delivered.10 years from now there will be service companies that come out to change light bulbs and furnace filters for these boneheads.
So much for his not having a car to help combat global warming.
My Jeep had a reinforcing beam factory-welded behind the grill that required exactly that procedure to get to the turn signals. The how-to video on You Tube took 20 minutes to watch, 10 minutes to think about how ridiculous this was, 40 minutes to change both bulbs and another 10 to put the jack away and clean up tools.I could not figure out how to change it so I had her take it to my mechanic, who had to take off the wheel, remove the wheel well cover, shuffle things around and finally, gain access to the bulb. It took two hours of shop time! He says that is just how they are designed.
Yeah, I can see the 2 hour shop charge.
At least, at 199k, I won't be doing it again.
