    Re: It's been awhile

    Here are some pictures from the little project I had today, took me about an 1-2hrs today and other then attaching the switch which will wait till its ready to be installed since its in the outer molding.

    The system is powered by a circuit made by excelcier for strobe lights, there are 4 Led's mounted in the metal shield that sits behind the dome light. Power was taken from the light itself, drilled and soldered wire's into the factory power mounts.

    The red wires are for the switch which is located parallel to the dome light.

    I also painted it satin black using a trim paint to black out more of the interior.











    oh here are some pics of the outer molding with the switch in it and painted with trim paint, it looks glossy but it will die down, its freshly dried, sorry for the blurry pics, my camera doesn't take good pictures anymore...

    Let's face it, this is not the worst thing you've caught me doing.

    are you sanding/primer/painting these parts? or just straight paint?

    Re: It's been awhile

    so I finished the pillars and the trunk panels, and wrapped them and stored them in the cougar till I finish the headliner. I have some Questions about mine since it is different them most being I have a dealer option roof, I'm going home this week and will take pictures to get help but till then, here are some bad cell phone pictures.

    I have since removed the door inserts, painted the handle area silver, re-touched the handle in trim black, as well retouched the doors and made them black, as well as the carpet, so no more grey . the rear panel inserts have been removed. since then I have re-touched the panels black. at the same time I updated the carpet and now its black.

    here is a bad cell phone picture of the driver side door ready for a new insert.



    Next project lmao, this one came up cause my old false floor sucked, and I no longer need to get at the spare wheel since its no longer there, so I removed it, placed the sub box on the floor and built a door frame around the hole, I plan on placing a door for access and storage and to make it clean,and unique. I'm going to cut up my old panels to use as the new panels but they are going to be fitted better.

    the problem I'm having is building the false walls to hold the amp and capacitor, I once had a single piece of plywood holding it up but it rattled and I hated it. here are some pics, maybe someone can give me a tip lol...
