Found a Bosch filter for dirt cheap in walmart clearance.

Oops! Took a little tumble from the 3rd story. Solder fixed it right up.

Removed the rear seat to expose the speakers; going to get some new 6x9's after work today.
Used my AC for the first time in 2 years. Still pretty cold. And no huge lack in power like a 4 cylinder.
City water main busted today in my front yard. Just got running water back Monday after a lightning hit that took out my tree and water line to house plus the cable. That was 17 days of no water at house. Today's leak got fixed in a couple hours but the whole yard is now a mud bog. Have not driven anything that rumbles or whines in a couple weeks. Getting grumpy and feeling hexed.
Installed new 6x9's. Sound crappier than before. Yay!
Ran the cable for a backup camera while the rear seat was out. Took forever to get the license plate frame to work; had to re-drill the mount holes and remove some metal where their cable would have been pinched by the license plate.
Also noticed water under the right rear carpet. It was strange as the top of the carpet was dry, the bottom was wet, and the floor was barely wet. No water leaks that I know of, so this might be the remnants of a flooded right front floor after a windshield install mishap. I have the carpet folded back so it can dry (it will be hot outside for the next few days), and will keep an eye on this.
installed my new struts today, only one bolt didnt want to come out and i ended up beating it so bad the tip was mushroomed over, had to take the grinder out to cut off the shroom lol
turns out the rears look to be factory, had a fe3 sticker on the top of the mount, the fronts had a kyb gr-2 sticker on them.
new ones ride so much better, ass end lifted up a good amount, dont drop like a 300 lb man is in the trunk when floored either no more. other then the ass being higher the fronts dont look to 4x4, they of course need to settle still, but if they stayed this high id be happy.

pay no mind to how dirty the car is. it wont stop raining and tree pollen is abundant, so f it.
Did the brakes on my mom's little PT Cruiser... It was nice to work on something with my dad.
Replaced the left front wheel bearing. Bearing growl is now gone. Yay!
You seem to do a lot of those.
Twisted off the right rear caliper bleeder, said fck it. I thought I would start the bleed the right way after replacing front calipers and rotors with Impala stuff.
Ended up just doing the front bleeding and everything seems alright.
Bought the limited edition cluster off ebay to match my phantom II gauges. Has anyone ever sanded the red film off the back to make the back lighting white instead of red? I googled the hell out of it to no avail. Plans are to sand off the red and install the 04+ needles or Camaro needles.

Don't think I put this anywhere. It's the R1 black rotor on the rear. Took a scotchbrite to it gently, wasn't much success and looked kinda harsh.
I ended up using a rag and just my glove to remove what I could. The remaining isn't very noticeable, the edge is still black (just not brand new), and they don't rust there.
Still really good brakes.

I drove it to work again, and the rear end has gotten noticeably quieter...
Right after the Addco rear sway went in, it would almost thunk over any little bump, and kinda groan slightly around corners. Now, I can just barely hear it if I turn the radio and defroster off... Maybe it's just the poly bushings settling into the little groove in the rear crossmember?
I know what the worn out strut mount clunk sounds like, I've gotten used to that... Probably not a good thing, but whatevs. :p
Priorities, right? Lol
