But from what I've read on this site, the WP is definitely a relatively easy DIY job, and I think the t-stat is nearby, and just as easy. I think there's a "howto" on the wp replacement. The T-stat is pretty similar for most cars.






In Feb the Cdn exchange rate was 50%, so $300 US=$600 Cdn. It's 75% now, but it was really, really bad for awhile. But the taxes in Canada are AWESOME. Buy a pack of smokes=$8 to $12, no kiddin.
