I tried to remove that hooks above the seat belt the way you said and it won't move. Maybe I'm not being clear as to what I am trying to remove. These are attached on the inside about 2 inches up from the seat belt retractor. Their plastic and I assume they are used to hang clothes on. Although the location of the hooks makes me wonder how this could be done and still be able to see out the side windows


Gint nailed it in his previous post. Take a flat-head and lightly pry up around the base and they should begin to lift like he said. Slide them up and you're good to go at the "actual" bracket that's under those covers.

When you wrote "pry up" I took that literally. I took a screwdriver like you said and pryed out away from the side and that made it possible to pry up. I guess it was just a case of terminology. Thanks for the help.

Ginty, it's not so horrible anymore... the light I see now is hopeful, whereas the light I used to see was a light... on the other side.

I have been deeded space to do mine, by a friend who is as dumb, as he is nice.

I shall overcome!

Serious, you must either look at that, and go "Oh MY GOD NO!" or look at it and say... well, you can't say that here, but let's just give it the old...

DARN TOOTIN'!

So, when do you start on mine?

I won't go through this again for a long time to come. Let alone on someone else's car.

Be sure to post pics when you get started. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

You're so right. I'm extremely happy with the progress of late. Even if the tub sits for a while waiting for an influx of cash, I'll be happy to have it sitting in my own garage looking all orange and purty.

I finally found the long or frame rail to shock tower thread of Jeroen's that I've been looking for. Looking for opinions of anyone who has BTDT. Feel free to add your $.02 to that thread.

Wurth undercoat schiznit stuff applied. I hear the underside is already Tangerine. I'll have to wait until Sunday to see it and get more pics.

Wow Mike it's almost done ;-) Seriously worst part is behind you and your car looks great.

I'm curious about the final finish for the wheel wells and underside. Did that come from the factory body color or was it painted body color and then undercoated? How are you going to do yours?

Yup, I'm getting excited... until I get the bills. LOL The tub is 4-6 weeks from completion now.

The factory used undercoat much like this Wurth product that you see applied here. Then it's painted body color over the top of that. I could be wrong (I'm sure someone will correct me if necessary), but I don't believe the factory ever applied black undercoat on top of the paint in the the wheel well or pan areas. All of the cars you see like that have been "improved" by some owner somewhere.
