She is also scared of strange people coming into the house so she won't come out if someone comes to check on her. I'm just worried about my little pest and I don't know what I would do with out her.

cats can be by themselves for 5-6 days....as long as they have water, food, and a good sized litter box......shell do fine....

we've left ours for a week by himself....my wish didn't come true though .....he was still alive....he was also really starved for attention...

I know, she will have at least two weeks of food, fresh water, and fresh litter box when I leave next week. I'm just having a couple rough days with some of the crap that my soon to be ex-wife is pulling lately.

I did mine for about $1000 found a used tranny for like $800 out of an '07 with 15k on it. Its really not that hard of a job to do, I did it all on the garage floor, in one long day of wrenching took about 20 hours and ive never pulled a tranny before.

Derek's 2013 Mustang has more "normal" headrests in it. I guess Ford got a bunch of complaints over those tilted headrests

There should be a easy to find button on one side of one post. That's your normal height change release. If you look on the opposite headrest post, there's a long flat slot at the bottom of the plastic trim, use a small screwdriver sideways, push the whole plastic piece in sideways and the headrest should slide up at the same time.

I was looking for a how to video, couldn't find one, just don't be an idiot and try this

Got the headrest dvd players ordered....went with the ones I linked.....I liked them cause the posts interchange unlike others where a plastic/metal sleeve is used and that takes away from adjusting the height....
