Raining today so the diff oil change didn't get done. Took wife shopping and we cashed in our loose change - all $680 worth. So I bought a new stereo/DVD head unit and spent the afternoon up to my neck in wiring.

Stereo in. Radio reception is crap. Volume up on steering wheel not working but all other controls are. And 6 years of slimy red dirt in the aircon vents - yuk.Dave

Pulled the rear diff out and started the Lokka installation. I have to say that the supplied instructions are a little difficult to comprehend. Stay tuned.

No, SWMBO would never allow that. The table is covered in the trims, vents and other bits from the stereo installation that is yet to be finished.Originally posted by foxclan View PostDave

She's never got over me using the kitchen oven to bake the new enamel paint on my rocker covers for my 302 Windsor that I put into my 66 XP back in 1990.Dave

Finished the stereo instal by tidying up the wires, cleaning the muck out of the air con vents and tubes. Now, if the rain would go away I might get the rear diff back in. Hang on a minute. Nope, pissing down again.Dave

The drive home made me wonder if I was driving a diesel, it was so smooth and quiet.
Now I have to find a reason to go on a long drive....... There's nice pies near Warwick!Comment

Funny thing about the work is that you can really see where Anthony's been => it's clean wherever he's worked.
Slightly dirty/dusty engine, then a clean maf sensor. Dirty bit, then the area where a certain pipe was worked on.
Quite a nice job, thanks Anthony.Comment

Took my airbags out and put coils back in (It's a GXL) with a coil helper kit. Nice easy job and no issues for a change. Just need to tide up some airlines.Winston.
