• Nice headlights

  So Jeanny was driving around in my car (we call her amy poo cuz of her license plate) and one headlight blew out. Shortly after during the same night… the other headlight blew out.

  ————-So I went to (edit) auto store to change out my lightbulbs…—————-

  Me: Hey
  Him: How can I help you boss?
  Boss (I guess that’s me): I need some new headlights for my Audi.
  Him: Low aim headlights right?
  Boss: Yep.
  Him: Here you go.
  Boss: Thanks.

  —————-I go home and try to install these new headlights…———————
  After struggling for about half an hour to find out how to get to the bulb to replace it, I finally yank out the headlight.

  Me: Hm… this looks odd. It doesn’t look the same as the ones I bought.

  I’m going to consult the audi handbook…
  Audi Handbook: Here’s a great list of “Do it yourself” things for your Audi… Like your lights… Page 263.
  Pg. 263: Do not attempt to replace your headlights. An Audi dealership has the proper equipment to do it for you… Plus we need the business.

  Me: Dang it! Fooled by the audi help book again!
  Jeanny: Why don’t you just take it into the Audi dealership?
  Me: We don’t have time… I’ll just go back and get the right headlights.

  ——————Back to (edit) Auto store————————

  Me: You gave me the wrong headlights. Can I have my money back?
  Him: Sure thing boss. Do you know what kind they are?
  Boss (Me again): Yeah, Here…
  Him: Oh okay. Here you go. Just take that to the register.
  Boss: Thanks.

  —————After Saturday Night Life, I have Jeanny check my headlights.—————-
  Me: Honey, it looks like only 1 highbeam works.
  Jeanny: Um… Yeah, you only got 1 highbeam on.
  Me: Oh no… I pulled out the highbeam headlamp… I need to go back to (edit) Auto store… I told him I needed the wrong one…
  Jeanny: Maybe you should have the Audi Dealership fix it.
  Me: Lets hope that (edit) Auto store is still open. I’ll just get both and put the new highbeam headlamps in.

  Back at (edit) Auto store
  Me: I need those other headlamps that I returned earlier.
  Him: Sure thing here you go boss. Thanks!
  Boss: Thanks.

  Jeanny: Do you want to wait till tomorrow when it’s light out to change them?
  Me: No, I should try to do it tonight since it’s not raining.
  Jeanny: Okay…

  —————–I go out and wrestle with Amypoo for 30 minutes and finally get the lamps changed————

  Now I feel like a million bucks… minus about 100 dollars in headlamp lightbulbs…

  ——————-Moral of the story————————
  If you get an audi and you need the headlights changed…

  Ask Phil he’ll (gladly) do it for you.
