i know, and i thought no one would ever notice it, no one has.

until i meant another rado driver and he commented on it, still don't know how he noticed without getting down and looking, he spotted it a mile off

He had his upskirting mirror out with him obviously 3CM.

As Davey was saying, you can jack them up off the sills/ seam if you've got a big enough pad on the jack with something to cushion it.
