    Make sure to plate the sides of the frame where those are located. Over time they can weaken the frame and rip.

    Mine was a straight fitting but a 90*degree fitting would've been cleaner. All I needed to do was twist the resi so the hose would twist in the right direction to clear the upper from running on it. .

    Oh yeah! I'm excited.

    I got to prep my cv's first. Got porshe boots. I swap out the inner boots right? And then just grind level where the boot attaches on the inner seal?

    Did this last night. Bed liner.....

    To be fair to glassworks they did arrive. I was worried about all the unanswered phone calls and all the horror stories, however after 3+ months I have them and they look super nice.

    awsome work with the bed liner. I should do that to mine too. I still need to order the rear's but guess I'll just wait until after I get the front LT situated.
