Enjoyed a the 3 day weekend in the Golden State

 

Reduced the weight of my wallet by $140 by ordering new window wiper trim pieces

 

Flush my heater core for the second time this year. The good, it's blows about 20° warmer. That bad, that takes it to 110°. I'm in the Rockies. We'll see how it works this winter.

 

PSA to all the new guys on the forum.
We have an unwritten rule.
If there are no pics did it really happen?
LOL.

 

Now that the rust converting paint is fully cured, I started the back half install of siless mat and started cleaning the carpeting

 

Put down more mat today, also started on the rear carpet

 

Stuck the carpet out in the sun today to dry

Spent the rest of the day removing the remaining interior trim and deep cleaning in preparation for all new door and window seals




Next thing will be to replace the headlinder and reseal or remove the old CB antanna mount on the back. Its also a good time to install the backup camera in the hatch since everything is opened up

 

Pulled the drivers seat, headliner and carpet out to discover cancer on the passengers side. The drivers side had some surface rust and a bit of putting but was surprisingly good. The passenger side however...

the deal brush did its job to reveal all the rot

So it seems there's lots of universal pans available. But the 84-96 is a different design for the seat mounts, does anyone have one they recommend?

 

Tonight I hit the rubber on the windows with another round of conditioner and installed a bunch of siless mat on the roof.



​​also marked out the rot on the floor pan, I think I can get away with just partial replacement and just make patches vs replacing the whole pan.

 

I installed an amp, because I could barely hear podcasts above the road noise. Haven't yet found the best way to route the wires neatly.




P.S. I also bought window lower edge "wiper" trim. But I didn't pay $140.

A quick paper towel holder made from Harbor freight and 30 seconds in a vise.. Adjust the position of them to keep the roll tight if windows down

 

Ordered things off amazon's black friday sale..

Got the LED headlights and a set of 6.5inch LED pods. The headlights are $72 shipped which is the lowest I've seen and the LED pods were $25 and came with the harness.

Also ordered a set of smoked marker/turn signals and a new Grill. The old girl is getting a facelift!

 

Today I found a workaround to my parasitic draw. If I press the door sensor in not once, or twice, but thrice, it some how fixes issue. This electrical issue is perfect for someone with OCD.

 

Tinkering tonight. Made a blank and a USB extension holder for the switch pod. It fits perfectly. I'm very happy with how it turned out.

 

greased up my ignition, debating one a key replacement and found this.
