Here is a local company that I came across while looking for a local dealer who did GIAC.
they have a page of "screwed up" mods. Some of these are just damn funny!

C'mon...who hasn't used sheet rock screws to make a quick fix? I like how they clarify that's a bad thing to do.

 

and plastic zipties are almost a versatile as duct tape

 

I actually used a combo of plastic zip ties and a coat hanger to hold up an exhaust pipe andto keep my shifter in place for my POS '86 Dodge Colt.

Nothing beats sitting at a stoplight playing with the shift **** only to have the entire gear shift disappear through the bottom of the car. I literally reached through the hole to almost street level, grabbed it, pulled it back up and managed to hold it while finding the gears to get home.

 

DAMN, Now that"s funny!

 

ya wow... i dunno what to say to that
