Fortunately, I married a woman who dislikes shopping of any kind. Car shopping and buying is totally left to me, after she tells me what model of car she wants. Right now it would be which Honda she wants.
When we bought the Civic, I tried to get her to look at all manner of comparable vehicles, but she kept telling me to buy her a Civic with a sunroof.

I have an air hammer/rivet gun, but I've had them expand the end of the metal you're beating on, and that could crack the case, would make it harder to pull through anyway. Don't know yet if I can manage the transmission in my press, but would try that first. When I cut through one side, I'll try drawing it out the other with a nut and spacer on the remaining end, but I think the big hangup is in the transmission, so that probably still won't work. Can try anyway, nothing to lose. I wonder if I welded something like a 1" wide x 1/4 thick steel bar to the end of the shaft if I could turn and break it loose? More likely bust the shaft...

The Home Depot I'm going to in a little while has 16 cans, I'll pick one up. Problem is, can only reach the outside ends, that's a long way to where it goes through the transmission. If'/when I cut it off, might be a good idea to try soaking the exposed ends in the transmission for a day or two, too. Thanks for the suggestion.

Maybe we should start a thread in the touring section, I'll bet they will have some wonderful ideas.
