Yeah you forgot to mention that most of the stuff in the garage is gonna make it home in my trunk...or was it the shed? hehe

The carpet and heat shield looks good though, don't know how I missed it after I got back from KoP...Maybe it was the tempting smell of Barbie's burgers

The best is yet to come though, more pics of the center console

Thanks again for the help with the power trunk release, and of course the wonderful burgers. Barbie is a great griller Guess I'll see ya tomorrow morning sometime. Maybe I will even remember to bring my cough syrup this time

I'm glad the stuff will find a good home, lol the carpet was installed before you even came over the first time, see the post time it was 5:30am, I had just finished it 40 minutes earlier.
Believe it or not, those burgers were cooked on a Forman grill in the kitchen! All the taste, none of the grease!
Tomorrow morning, I gotta track down the UPS man for my ULINE nitrile gloves, I burned through 360 gloves in the last 2 weeks and I'm out again. - I cant help it I like to keep my hands and work area as clean as possible

now, on to todays work....

I thought that the sides of the center console were too short, so here I am making the sides longer:



Sides hard....


NEW project!




First part, adding speaker covers/holes to non-B pillar speaker part (blue outline marked and center cut)
next project is a little experiment I am attempting, I have speakers in the hole under the seatbelt so I am putting somewhat of a speaker pod at the top of the foam block, and if you look carefully (will add closeup eventually) theres a "L" shape cut into the bottom, thats going to support a L shaped part that the T-TOPS will sit on top of, behind the seats.
