What have you done to your DeLorean today?

there is one, and it is pretty cool but it shows it only when the ipad is vertical, when it is horizontal it shows the time circuits and acts as an alarm clock.

The lower door seal had come away from the edge. Removed all the edge clips from the door seal piece. I checked the grippers (little spikes that grab the edge and the trim) to make sure they would all grab. Refitted the edge clips into the door seal piece - placed them so that they didn't re-attached where the edge was already worn. I added some 3M black marine adhesive for good measure. Pressed the door seal and embedded edge clips onto the edge and tapped into place with a rubber mallet. Going to leave over night with the door open. Hopefully this won't come loose again for a very long time.

Installed a NEW coolant bottle Saturday. Discovered I had a slow leak in my LR tire (was just installed 6 weeks ago). I took it in to get it fixed and they said it was seeping at the bead due to migrating corrosion from the inside. They cleaned the area and neutralized the bad spot then used a sealing compound on it. Hopefully it holds now. Recharged the A/C after 2 years (R134a). Dang it's COLD in there now. Had to run on fan speed 1 w/ MAX A/C. DEBUGGED the front end and cleaned the wheels and Went for 30 mile drive

Installed SilverStar headlights on the driver's side, but not the passenger side. Will take some nice side by side photos tomorrow when I can get the garage to myself. The difference is staggering and is even more impressive side by side on the same car. My one complaint is that the low and high beam SilverStar bulbs don't seem to be the same color. The old Wagner/Sylvanias were basically exactly the same color low to high, just different brightnesses.

You can lock the display rotation which kkeps it from changing to the time circuits but it's designed to be displayed vertical like the real thing.

Cheers.

Big day.

I finished installing Toby's (DPNW's) low current fans as well as some replacement parts for my R-12 A/C update.

The fans were a breeze to install. I expected much worse given my first experience removing my radiator last year, but the shroud came out with little effort.

I replaced the compressor hose that travels the drivers side of the car since my original had friction damage from the steering column. THIS was not an easy job, but I devised a system of installing it from the rear and working towards the front that worked very well. Just enough room.

I'm stoked to finally have some A/C in the car. Heading down to DMCNW for a system check and recharge next week.

Had a little time tonight. Performed the final latch-lock modification and did come cleanup of the goop on the interior of the drivers door for the vapor barrier.

Installed a replacement reverse light switch from Hervey. Work first time, no copper washers needed as spacers. Didn't look like a NOS switch like the previous replacement. I managed to do the replacement without lifting the rear, just need to get your head into the driver's rear wheel well.

Adjusted the passenger stricker pins AGAIN, so the passenger can get out without having to nudge the door.

Cleaned the contacts on the drivers door light switch with a nail emery board. Now the door lights come on bright every time.
