Finally ditched the crappy base speakers and installed some Polk DXi 6500 components. Install was a pain at first, but i got it looking like it came from the factory. They sound freaking sweet!

Drove it a little.

Washed/dried

Drying with all doors, hatches, hood open

I make sure it is very dry. Detailed the strakes, engine compartment. Man is this fun!

Tomorrow, the interior.

Easy to clean the car, because it IS clean!

Changed my air filters from who ever put Frams in ( dirty as hell) to K&N's. She coughed ran like crap for about a minute then the computer must have reset and now runs like a top. What a difference getting some air makes!!! Lol !!! Oh, changed the one on my bagger to a K&N and now she runs like a top too!!! Also put red LED's in my map lights. Now I need the sticky on how to turn them on when the ignition switch is off... Can some one help a brother out lol...( just wondering... Do women call Their cars he or is it still she???) oh!!! And the K&N's were a "tight fit" so make sure you get them in all the way! Careful!!!

I had an idea a while back and decided to "get on it". I had to pull the airboxes off to make measurements and see how much room I have to play with. While I am at it, The airbox is being painted SSB to match the car and freshen up the look and a set of AEM dry filters installed (I hate doing the cleaning and the oiling of the K&N).

As soon as I have an extra set of hands I will be placing the factory hood back on the car also for taking measurements and locations of "things" (No I am not putting in vents)

I can see your coolant is down an inch as you said before, strange.
I also had an idea a while back, trouble is I have forgotten what it was. Age does that to you. LOL

In your photo above, it appears to me there is no engine cover and battery in the stock location, what am I missing?

I would guess the battery is relocated to the rear hatch area maybe in the pit below the tire kit cover. Thats my guess and I'm sticking to it.
