This is what happens when parts don't arrive all at once when I want them... I go A.D.D, and let them sit around the house for 2 years before actually installing...
heheh, sounds like me. The wifey is still bugging me when Im gonna install my bday present :lol:

Good luck with the project! B)
Nice, I liked my pillarpod when I had it....the full pillar pods are sooo much nicer than those half ones that screwed on :P

Decided to cut the AEM Eugo cable or cut a huge hole in the firewall?

Looks good, can't wait to see the pics of the gauges finally in the car.

nah, but he did provide meford with the tip on getting properly matched paint that was passed along to me... coupled with a trip to buffalo for a hockey game, an offer of help from meford and the son, hell, it's just too damn convenient NOT too.

Of course, I don't know how 'deep' I'm getting in by asking the favour, but it's a risk I'm willing to take.

afternoon? I doubt we will be there in the afternoon. We have to install his guage pod and I anticipate that might take a few hours inbetween beers.
So I would say dinner at St. Louis.

If you want to stop by my house, feel free. Anyone.

wanna be nominated for f***tard of the month?

Nass, who is not on my ignore list (yet) gave me his mom's # who gave me her daughter's #. I, gave puppet the #, who I am not on his ignore list, gave the # to our very own Don Juan who is not on his ignore list.

Are you following me? If not........................f***tard of the month nominee goes to
I know I'm lost...

but I do see my name. Does that mean the whoring is on-topic?
why do I feel dirty after reading this thread?
Whoring includes puppet and nass is a whore.

The world is aok ;)
A couple of quick tips:

- take the existing a-pillar off and match everything up on the table, don't do it "in car".

- Don't forget to pre-paint the pushpins -- poke a couple of holes in a piece of cardboard and put the pins in there to hold them while you paint - leave them out a smidge to "get around the edge" with the paint.

Optional recommended step - pick up a little tube of paintable construction adhesive (I used Bulldog Grip PL Polyurethane Door, Window and Siding Sealant), carefully run a small bead up inside the pod to stick the two together. This has to be your LAST STEP before final assembly. If you accidentall slop a little you can paint it up.


If I have time today I might try to stop in -- but no promises, I'm building my shed and it depends on my progress.
