This one is private too, but it's well known he doesn't much care as long as you don't tear up his trees, or get mad at him for breaking your own truck. And it's always fun to find new ones. I usually run them for like ten minutes, or until someone drives by slow.

Yep, 194LL. Just followed STL's how-to. Took me around an hour and a half to do the cluster and hvac. I spent 10 minutes looking for a screw that fell. pissed me off but can ya do, right?

I undercoated mine yesterday. I was pretty surprised how big of a difference it made. Cut down on the road noise substantially.

Got mine tinted today. 50% front 5% rear.

Also got my car washed and left my tailgate down to let the water drain out the back. Went over a speed bump and the damn thing came right off. It was only connected by the metal wire things. It cracked my taillight. It's pretty small but still pisses me off. Maybe a good time to convince my parents for 06 or LED tails.

I bought a 4' CB antenna for the truck today. Gonna figure out how to mount it flush to the bumper, and then run coax all the way back there. Should be fun!

Had windows tinted this morning.
Maximum allowable.

As seen from left front


As seen from left rear


Just can't use windows for next couple of days, until fully set and dry.
Not a problem, since I don't plan on going anywhere!

----------

Also damn near hit some young, blonde broad on my way home!
Was waiting, halfway into intersection, to make left turn. Waiting for break
in traffic, or light to change. Light changed, and I waited a second longer, in case oncoming traffic decided to try and run light. Once I was sure I could finish, I started.
Next thing I knew, this broad was right in front of me, apparently jumping the green light. Slammed on brakes, cranked wheel harder to left. NO contact made.
This idiot, to be polite, then tailgated me for some distance, getting right up on my rear end! A sudden stop, and she was up my rear big time!!
HOW this "person" got a drivers license, driving like that, I don't know!!
As stated, no damage done, but my nerves are SHOT!!
And since I had a camera on me, I would have tried to get photo of license plate
and report driver to police. Or see IF I could have gotten driver as well, for filing purposes. For safety though, I did NOT. Wish I could haver though.
End of a nasty day. Sorry for rambling, but needed to vent quickly!
Thanks?
