    Freezing didnt help much. Since I had the center console out, I messed around with them a lot until I finally got them in. Everything is back on except the tail lights. Once i jump the start Ill find out if I fixed the radio or not.

    The rubber boots that connect to the AC vents on the faceplate. Didnt help me much though

    Radio is working!


    Purple door light lenses!



    The trunk and engine bay lights have been replaced with LEDs. The fans do come on but the failing fan light is flickering. I put the door lock light in the defrost... I drove around without overheating and the alternator belt still looks good. The fuel gage seems to be wrong though. It was at 0 and when I tried filling up I only put in 4 gallons before it stopped.

    You might need a new fuel sender.

    I wholeheartedly recommend the pump/sender combo unit from DMCH. A bit pricey and the warranty is too short but it's a good unit. That is, of course, if you're willing to replace your pump.

    Dmcmw is coming to pick up the car tonight. Coworkers told me that is a pain in the ass to fix so I might just get DMC to take care of that. Dave and I discussed inspecting the car then going over it in person on Saturday.

    By the way, driving with the doors open at night is one of the most exciting things I've ever done!

    This is a really good way to fuck up your torsion bars.

    Not so much the torsion bars, but it's hell on the hinges and the stud mounts for the struts.
