    You sir have tickled my fancy, Ill pm you in the coming weeks.

    Got the Alpine unit in, the bluetooth feature on it is boss, full music control on my phone from the stereo deck. Also wired in and cut some tweeter mounting locations in the door panels. So nice to cruise around and really listen to music in the car!

    1 Inch Rockford Fosgate Divorce tweeters!



    And the Alpine unit, took me forever to take care of the haggard wiring that was behind the $10 special deck that was being used, once I got that lined out, it was golden! Love the Alpine units already!

          Yerah, something similar to that at least, Ill have to double check my email receipts. Steal away my man, it works because there is nothing in the way behind the panle, and its a low traffic area without stuff rubbing against it all the time.

          Went for a drive today, ill post up one quick picture, have to be up early for work tomorrow.

              It honestly a pain to keep this low with the Pierce Motorsports goodies up front. But it looks so damn good I cant say no!

              Sorry for updating and posting more pics. That picture was from a trip the the California Redwoods, heres more to go along with it from that weekend.

              Went for another drive this weekend to Crater Lake National Park in Oregon, I want so badly to do some exploring around there, bummer that I only got to spend a few hours there. Heres a few pics from that expedition.

                  Damn those Enkeis set it off perfectly. Suits the lines of the car. Plus from the C-pillar back it reminds me of my first car, a '93 Falcon [Australia].

                        That was just how they mounted up the match the body lines, didnt have a whole lot of options seeing as how they are molded to only go on one way, lol

                        Im gonna try to hit up that Corksport Gig in August, cant make any promises though. If I do we can go out for some pics afterwards!

                        Finally decided the car needed a new shifter setup after finding a good deal on the best short shifter ever made for these cars.

                        Picked up a Corksport short shifter. (discontinued)

                        Super colorful Blox shiftknob.


                        And delrin bushings for the Swivel points on the shift linkage under the car, the OE ones are old as hell and falling apart, lol.

                              I see you saw in the other thread, lol. I couldnt pass it up, had to get me one while I could!

                              And the bushings I found on another link from CP, love digging around into all the nooks and crannies around here to find the detail pieces.
