[DML] Re: Upgrading the DeLorean Horns? spontaneous defecation

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ah yes, dreaded "PO wiring mods" (assuming you ever become a PO).
Don't feel bad, I've made them too -- most of us have, in some circuit
or another. That's one reason DeLorean owners need to have at least a
modicum of electrical ability. And not necessarily to "undo" those
mods -- a PO may have made them for a reason worth keeping (scaring
woodland creatures?).

To be honest, an owner needs to be somewhat self-sufficient with all
systems in the car (not just electrical). These aren't the kind of
vehicles you simply drop off at a third party mechanic. Not that
they're particularly esoteric or exotic (DeLoreans are actually quite
conventional, with only a few exceptions). It's just that most
mechanics have more than enough business already from cars they know
and are comfortable with. They are not likely to take on an unknown
commodity like a DeLorean -- WE know they're conventional, but the
mechanic doesn't.
