So I am changing the clutch in my wife's car. Heavily rusted bolts? No problem. Hard to reach bolts? No problem. Axle Bolts? No problem. Tiny little electrical connections? Major PITA!

Who designed these things? Why must method to disconnect be completely different? Why must they all require a tool and an impossible angle to reach? What is with the mystery? Really? A metal clip that is embedded deep in the plastic that you can't get to without breaking the damn thing?!?!?

Aparently so they do not leak. or come apart. Even when you want them to.

I like the ones that go into the back of a gauge cluster, the leads to which don't give enough slack to get your hand on them properly, and which you have to press so hard on to un-clip that it makes you cry.

I had a root canal; it's not that bad if they freeze everything right.
