Decided to fiberglass the rear headliner light opening and sun visor holes. Plan is to move that light to the hatch tool panel where it will be more useful. T

Built up the sun visor voids with open cell foam in preparation for the leather wrap. Old wives tale: place plain brown paper over face of leather and iron out wrinkles. (Ok, I learned this on google search today ) Anyone recognize the connector in last pic ? TIA. T

Bump, cuz I was wondering the same thing last weekend when I buttoned up my center console. Couldnt figure out what that plug went to, figured maybe the original stereo but I'll stay tuned in to find out. Nice work on the headliner, lookin good. Real good

Thanks LB. Don't think it's the stock stereo wiring, I have those wires marked. Finished up the rear headliner tonight. Yippee. T

Recently purchased some early used "S" type air ducts, air deflectors, struts, and brackets, from 928 Intl. Trying to keep those brake temps down on the spirited runs at 3rd Coast. T

103 ft/lbs I believe for the upper A-arms. Nice work Tony, she's looking great!

Cheers!

Nice having the extra storage place out of plain sight. Sub box takes up most of the interior room on the pass side bin, but was able to fit a halon extinguisher and a few x-large micro fiber towels. Wired an always on dual USB/12V charger on the drivers side and filled the back pack with car cleaning supplies, etc. T

Looks great Tony!

Looking forward to doing my own rear seat delete this winter, I'll be copying a lot of what you've done.

Like they say imitation is the highest form of flattery.
