thank you sir!

Just picked up some Fat Five's! Not what I wanted but couldn't beat the price... FREEBIE'S!



btw, didn't have the time to start on the headliner Sunday. Had to mulch a customer's house and ran later in the day than expected.

It's been awhile!

Today picked up some part's from a local scrap yard. Got two A pillar cover's, driver's door lock actuator, 99-00 cup holder, & the cover around the cup holder. Got everything finished except the a pillar's. Tomorrow, I'm dropping the headliner and sunroof. The headliner is getting recovered and the sunroof is getting fixed!.

Anyone know where or have picture's of a EJ (last time I check we live in america) with leather seat's? Not sure it would look right! But thanking about buying black carpet and black leather seat's for my medium/dark grey interior. Then dyeing the A & B pillar's black. then covering the headliner and sunroof visor in black. Any help would be appreciated!
I don't have leather seats, but I painted my A and B pillars black, and wrapped my headliner in black. There are pictures in my build thread.

Curious to see how your powered USB and audio input turn out! That's a cool mod!

Skulleds I'll sell you the wing. Do you have a green trunk with no holes? I trade you straight up trunk for trunk ( with no hole's).

nice pickups! Also question, how are you turning the cassette player into an aux 3.5mm jack lol? I'm definitely interested in doing the same.

You solder wire's onto the head of the cassette player, should need two wire's. I've not finished it yet so couldn't tell you for sure which one's. I do know there is 5 wire's coming from the head of my cassette player. You're best bet would be to solder 5 wire's to the head and use process of elimination to figure out which one's are what! all your looking for is the left and right audio signal's. Next, figure out which switch tell's the system when a tape is in the deck. if memory serve's me correct there was two switches in my player. Then sold a wire in place of the switch so it thank's it always has a cassette in it.

Test fit the wheel's today!



Don't mind the back... but something gotta give up front sit's way to high. Should I go with a bigger tire (195/55R15 in the pic, maybe buy 185/65R15 instead) or lower the front? Need any and all idea's to make it look right! If I lower only going 1-"1.5"!

Also, gave up on turing the cassette player into an aux and order a Blitzsafe Auxiliary Adapter.



Next week I'll be ordering new tire's, center caps, and Lug nut's. Getting the clear coat off the wheel's has been a bit**! I will say the curb rash definitely better than expected!

After that painting begin's! back and inside the spoke's are going gun metal then clear coating! some up close pic's of what I started with in where as well!
