If not, I think it's trashed lol - that's why I bought an extra one to practice :tup: I think I just need two more tools and possibly a helper and I can do the swaps much quicker and cleaner.

So I get in the car to take out the pieces to test the start button. I get as far as taking off the shift knob and the shift boot trim. Since I detailed the interior this morning, I decided to take the shift boot and trim apart to deep clean them. Next thing I know, I find myself sanding the silver trim and prepping it to paint. I back the car out of the garage and have two layers of adhesion promoter and about to spray the base coat.

Sorry, Ms. Pint, your start button is on hold :icon17:


Any pic??? :pics:

That's Fine, I'm Still Deciding On If I Want It Too. I'd Like To See The Testing One Lit Up.

Sounds good. I am dragging Melody out as well :tup: Take me off the showcase spot though lol I'm parking in the garage. The weather will determine how long we hang out, though we'll probably eat there.

Pint, I tested the start button, and of course, the one LED I thought might not work DID work, and the LEDs I thought would work DID NOT :icon17: The main blue button LED works great, but none of the PLCC2 are working - I guess I must have just soldered them in backwards :ugh2:

Since I can't polish the shift boot trim for 24 hours, I went ahead an installed it :tup:

Oh...just a notice to those of you who converse with this old fart. I'm going to start giving out "likes" when I reach 1k. I was totally against "likes" when they first came onto the board. My thought was, this isn't Facebook.

But, now hat I've had some time to think about it....:ugh2:


So stay tuned!

Man! I feel like I haven't been here in a fortnight! Has anybody even missed me? :)

I've had my nose crammed in the books studying, so don't think I've forgotten you all. I know I was supposed to have my test at the end of January, but I didn't feel prepared enough for it. Next Thursday at 2pm is the drop-dead date/time. I'm not changing it anymore. I'm so sick of this thing looming over my head. :shakes head:

Taking a break this evening to go see Identity Thief with the little lady. :)
