Thanks man, I really like the car. The biggest PITA was the blower motor, which wasn't that bad, so I really like working on it, too. I have to keep reminding myself that I bought the car with 230k miles on it, and I've had it for about 9 months...so it's come a long way. I had my truck for damn near 5 years before it reached it's current state...and I got it with 55,000 miles on it. Comparing the 2 timelines, I have come A LOT farther on this car than I did on my truck in 9 months, lol.


Oh yea, I pretty much finished the one touch stuff, all 4 windows have one touch up and down. This weekend I'll tear into the sunroof to set up the one touch close. Still kind figuring out how to pull that off...I know the wiring end of it, but I solder every connection and most of the wiring is in the headliner AND over my head. I foresee me needing a new headliner in the future, or having some pretty cool burn marks on my face....or both.

Seems that the AZ trip I had planned at the end of December has fallen through, they're cutting hours at work, and I loose out on an entire weeks worth of unemployment during our 2 weeks off (waiting week). It sucks, but oh well, now I'll have more time to get the car done\reliable since we'll be going in June instead.
