Replaced the clutch in the DX

The kid and I got together and "R & R'ed" the clutch this morning.
It had to be one of the easiest clutches I've ever done. I went into this one with mucho apprehension, after hearing several horror stories, but it was a breeze. He totally fried the clutch this time. At least it didn't et into the rivets, that woulda sucked having to replace the flywheel!!

Now the LX is next, it's clutch is weak!!

I drove one of those auto-manuals. Its nowhere near as fun as stick. In fact it's almost the same as a regular automatic instead of just pushing it up from 1 etc, and it downshifts automatically anyway.
