    This is my second pair and its not just the fact they don't shed the water they are leaving massive streaks where the blades aren't making contact with the windshield. I think the rubber isn't rated for cold weather.

    It was 56 and raining today which melted all the ice and snow. This was the best option I had to get some last-second preservative on the frame to buy time for a proper strip in the spring, because it ain't getting warmer til March.

    Got all up under it w/ pressure washer carriage and also a gun for detail areas and hit all seams, joins, and crannies in the frame with Amsoil HDMP. I had used the HDMP previously on the new suspension hardware and in the suspension knuckles on the frame, mostly as an experiment to see if it would do anything to help disassembly after harsh winters, and also to see how the HDMP behaved.

    I'm pretty confident that this stuff ran well into the places I was concerned about and based on how it's sticking to me, I have extreme confidence that this stuff isn't going to wash off or even really pressure wash off. We'll see.

    Worked on my storage box. Time for carpet. I tucked the seat belts behind the trim and no rattles, so far.

    Added a lot more lighting. BD S2 pros on the rear of my Prinsu. BD S2 pros flush mounted into the sides of my Prinsu, and BD rock lights in the wheel wells. Almost done with the wiring, can’t wait to see how everything looks.

    You gotta use the windshield protectant for them to work.

    Finished up the rear bar with frame supports and got it installed. With the mat trimmed it looks clean AF if I say so myself.

    edit: the tent looks crooked but it’s just a weird optical illusion because of the angle of the picture.
