See the date I started on the interior? I'm almost done

It was really the learning curve. But, the wiring is done, the carpet and drivers' seat is in, the other seats are recovered and waiting install (easy), and I broke almost nothing.

Should be finished tomorrow. The new interior and cleaned carpet really does look better, and I'm looking forward to the better SQ I've learned comes from a better amp. I've already upgraded the speakers, my experience every car benefits from that and it's usually pretty easy.

While I was running wires I did add a couple for a back up camera. It appears most new double din units come with that and GPS. If it comes with Bluetooth I can run the mic during install.

Now I just need to add a few thousand watts and 11 subwoofers and I'll be ready to go

Strangest thing. I've been working on this car for a while now and all that NEEDS done after this is u-joints, a short afternoons' work. Then I'll be finished, with this car anyway, till something breaks. Weird - finished.

But then there's the S-10 which needs a thorough going over for its' 5 year plan. And my nephews' car.
