    oh yeah! haha. The wiring looks good up until you hit the trunk:anonymous: couldn't really find a good way to do anything with the wiring. Nobody looks in the trunk much anyway:rolleyes:

    The factory speakers in the car are 5", not 5-1/4" but 5" even and at the time there were no options to replace them without more custom work than I wanted to do, so I opted for 6x9's in those boxes. haha:cool:

    I took my dog for a ride to the park and she slobbered all over! If she wasnt my best friend then Id be pissed, but I cant get mad at that little face. They came out real nice though.

    The "hits" in the low frequencies are from passing through my skull, as this is a basic occupational "non-masking" test.
    Right ear is 100% loss. The eardrums and bones function... a loud noise will literally "rattle" my eyeballs, but there is no perception of sound.
    I can not tell the direction of sound left to right... the degree of muffling from the auricle gives me the same front to rear perception as anyone, but if I'm in a crowd and hear my name, I have to pull a quick 360 and watch for lips moving.

    I've talked to the House Otologic group. If my left ear ever gets to the point that a hearing aid does nothing, a cochlear implant is an option.

    Got color-matched grille and painted logo. Didn't do it today, but installed a Access LE bed cover a couple of weeks ago.

    Got home from work today and got at installing my front King Coil Overs with reservoirs - SAAAWEEEEEEEEET! Finished around 10pm, took me about 5 hrs. ya I'm an old guy and work slow. As you can see from the second picture, I had to modify the the reservoir bracket because I have a front hitch receiver and the mounting brackets for that taper away from the frame slightly making it impossible to line up the front mounting bolt of the reservoir bracket. Additionally that cut away piece passed directly over the mounting bolt of the receiver. I suppose I could drill and bolt the bracket in another location. I'll just have to see if it looks like things aren't going to hold up well. I just hope the one leg will be sufficient to keep the reservoir mounted securely. I can't wait to take it for a ride tomorrow to see how she handles.
