Random thoughts and rants from an ongoing install...

Today is starting off better than yesterday. Turns out that fault code was just the keep alive memory and was most likely tripped by connecting/disconnecting the battery multiple times yesterday. Torque cleared that right up.

I think I'm gonna skip the sound deadening for today. It's just way too hot and muggy out there to be doing it. I would give years of my life for an air conditioned garage.

Yeah, Brutal out there today. Had planned to wax her up for a stereo show in erie on Saturday tonight, had to flip on the Garage a/c as soon as I got home.
Still nasty in there.

Finally had a little time to get started on sound deadening today, but I only got one door done before the sky started making me nervous.

I probably would have gotten more done faster but I forgot about the damned rivets that need to be drilled out to get to the inner door skin...and of course my drill decided to take a crap today and I had to run out and replace it.

Overall it went well. The resonance in that door panel has been completely controlled (with the exception of the outer door handle buzzing a bit. I never did figure out how to suitably address that on the last Z either.) and there is a noticeable improvement in midbass response, which was already fairly respectable. Not too shabby.

With a little luck I'll be able to get the other door and the hatch done over the next few days. This has gone on WAY longer than I intended.
