Removed the AC duct under the passenger seat and wiper arms/motors. Next is the sound deadening.

You mean you don’t like the sound of the truck engine VQ???

The VQ sounds good out the back, not so good up front. In fact, up front it’s probably one of the worst sounding engines I’ve driven. The 03/04 6mt are especially loud and obnoxious sounding.

I thought "Pig Town" meant Cincinnati (sausage) but I'm in southwest Ohio and it seems like the snow may be done finally. Are you in the opposite direction ?

Ordered front and rear Project Mu Type NS pads today. Getting rid of the Hawks. They last forever and make zero dust, but the bite is lousy. Probably will end up getting stainless lines as well eventually.

got some of these to install my side skirts



drilled a hole and popped them in with a hammer to avoid tack welding it


I want to shave some of side skirt to make the screw more flush but eh... i find it better than using glue and drywall screws..... opinions??

I'm not a bodyman but maybe a threaded rivet. It takes a special crimp tool, Google it.

Nice thank you
I've used metal and plastic rivets but never seen these before.

That what was the idea I was going for now I just need to find a screw that has a smaller head

But at least it looks better than those side skirts people put drywall screws on
