You should have brought 2 sets of corners so when you destroy the first set itll be a learning experience for the second set

I bought a horn ($16-high note) from NAPA this morning and installed it next to and wired it together with the stock horn in my Ranger. NOW it sounds like a Ranger should sound !! Beautiful....

Finished speaker replacement: left previous owner aftermarket speakers in doors, replaced Ford speakers in rear panels. Replaced 5 bulbs in instrument cluster. Added Ultra-Gauge, at least for duration of fixing EGR path. Pressure washed underneath bed from previous pinion seal leak to see if the leak is persisting (no oil leakage in driveway). Added FordRangerForum.com black decal to rear window.

Me too, just from reading about your experiences with this mod. I would like to do it, but getting too worried to try. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, but I have to ask myself, is it worth the risk? Don't know!

Topped off the master cylinder (as I do daily), drove to/from work, removed hundreds of nuts from a tree I parked under (damn it!) from the bed, hood, roof, etc.

I finished installing my OHC... then got it to work after "popping" fuses.
That'll teach me to not disconnect battery

If the rain ever stops I'll apply the FRF stickers - but it looks like rain for a while here!
