Thanks for the directions.
> How do you keep your engine compartment that clean and nice looking?
Never used degreaser. From day one, cleaning the engine compartment with a rag was considered to be always part of washing the car. Usually takes about five minutes. Thus, the engine never is allowed to get beyond the capabilities of a wet rag. Of course, this doesn't get all the nooks and crannies, or the lower part, but I am not a fanatic and, as you can see, who cares about those.
It is not a digital cam per se but a Sony DCR-PC100, which does both moving (onto DV tape) and still (onto "Memory Stick"). Sometimes it doesn't focus well indoors.
