... you finally fix an longstanding problem with your car with a replacement part you found on Ebay for <$100 instead of paying the dealership $1000+ to do it for you.

Also that moment when you finish doing your first plumbing installation yourself with PVC and PEX, and you turn the water on, and nothing leaks.

Could have asked the dealer to source a used part as well...

Maybe, but I’m guessing a used part from them still would have been at least $300 (new is ~$500) and they also would charge for coding it to the car, which apparently is unnecessary.

Also when you finish a liquid cooled PC build and you fire up the PSU...

Everything is still dry and the pump works!
