still working on the interior of the car, removed the radio that the PO installed and did a piss poor job. He had wires all over the place, what a mess. Things are now making a lot of sense. Hope to install the underglow tomorrow and finish dynamatting the inside.

Just a bit of late night front suspension disassembly, and cleaning, also replaced the lower ball joint boot. Its amazing how filthy the arms have gotten in just a year. Found where the from spring was rubbing on the frame so I fixed that with a hammer. Also confirmed that I never repainted the sway bar, I swear I had.

Failed to install replacement cigarette lighter last night as I was unable to separate the green plastic from the metal cylinder. Succeeded in scraping a few knuckles pretty badly.
Double-checked contacts on inertia switch. All is well there.

Booked her in to my mechanic to get the auto trans leak fixed on 30/1. It will be the first time for her to sleep over somewhere else since coming to Australia.

It was on Monday, but the last bits that need to have come off, and the heads are ready to be pulled as soon as I get my new ones in from DPI.

With the rain FINALLY coming, I took her for what may be the last real drive of the season. Went to Lowes to get some overhead lighting so it will be easier to rip her apart all winter
