Yeah, inspections suck. When we moved here to Texas, we were surprised and disheartened to discover vehicle inspections - I had always thought Texas to be more heavy on personal freedoms and the like. Anyhow, my current DD, the Mustang, sat for two years because my Dad and I were afraid to find out what the car would need to pass inspection here. As it turns out, I just needed some new wiper blades (a good idea anyway) and a horn button to be wired in. Still, some places are going to be more lax than others, particularly if you know the folks. It's the old case of who you know being of almighty importance
