Front carpet center console back in
And the the coco mats whic are very thick and serve to add a lot of insulation and sound deadening property, while providing a very pleasant visual experience (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Attached thumbnail(s)

I'm not really satisfied with the level of support in the seal cushion- it's the original foam and my butt was really sore after driving the car back to SC 1000 miles last week from CT! So the bottom cushion will come out and get a new pad but for tonight it goes back in the car as I need to do some rest driving-

Oh and I replaced the fuel pump today- it was making a lot of noise and I kept getting a wired hesitation here and there- already had adjusted the tops which got rid of the slight issue at 3000 rpm and now the idle circuit is engaged so I can adjust the idle at the ecu now-
I did drive this car to church today, so it for me there but it will be interesting to see if the new pump makes a difference- i was a brand new Bosch , old one was after market - i didn't take a picture of it as I was getting gas all over me trying to get that input hose hooked up fast- able to pull mine out the mini access door in the front trunk since last time the tank was out I made sure the lines were long enough to to pull it out but short enough not to kink up- Attached thumbnail(s)

Center console cushion was with car when I got it - probably not original but nice- is old but vinyl is still flexible- it's an early pattern, different than my dash face

Wires for the heated seats were too short to reach the way the console was - the on off switches were up on top- I flipped the panel 180 degrees and turned the gauges around- now the a/f meter is on bottom- oil temp on top-
So if anyone reads this that has a VDO gauge, I'd like to acquire one- my sender is a VDO and does not read correct with this gauge- it's between 30 and 40 degrees higher than actual temp. So also need a period correct radio and panel ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached thumbnail(s)

I never liked how the d board and mat fit in front -
And just tested the fuel pimp and not noise other one I could hear above the engine noise! I think it was a matter of time--- anyway - more to follow this week as I try and time another mps- or I'd unsuccessful it's on it's way to Jeff B. |
