Replaced both distributor caps and rotors. Used Bosch parts took one and a half hours pulling the plug wires off old distributor caps was hardest part.

Tell us more about your upgrade, what kind of speakers are those. Did you change any of the other speakers? Cheers

Bought them from Crutchfield, and the speakers are Retro Sound. When you enter your car on their website, these are the only ones that come up for the rear deck.

Crutchfield also sends you the connectors for free so the install couldn’t be easier. Literally plug and play.

The only thing I had to do was to trim the plastic tray where the speakers are mounted with a Dremmel tool to make the hole a bit bigger.

I haven’t changed the front speakers yet, but will definitely do it once I find ones that look just like the stock ones once you put the grills on. Most of the ones I’ve found have all kinds of colors and branding and look absolutely hideous.

Thx for sharing. Is that for a car without the HiFi option?

Tamed the dragon today.
Drove up from Atlanta to the tail of the dragon. Had multiple amazing runs on the dragon. I saw few bikers and very few cars there driving on the dragon. Never before have seen it so empty during the day.
Every run was a full go without being forced to slow down due to others. To bad my GoPro was not in the car. Too bad I was alone.
what a day

Same experience on the roads here too. A silver lining to this whole mess.

For sure, roads are great right now. Not too many cops either. Would be a great time for a group drive actually.

I drove it to the airport where it’ll sit while I go on a three day trip for work. My wife sent this pic of our four year old watching me leave.

Default Pop Up Breakfast

Took the P-Cars out with the wives on a early morning drive through the hills. Had a mini PopUp breakfast and watched the trains roll by. Breakfast burritos, pastry’s and coffee with friends.
