I've been doing alot:

Finally got the A/C working with my Bostig setup... Gotta email the guys
as it seems I need to increase the idle.

Have 17" tires/wheels on order

Installed a hitch, Thanks Dennis!

Transitioned to LED lights for turn signals and side markers

Installed a new antenna, now just need to figure out a radio

Got the windows tinted all around

and finally,

Washed and waxed her up!

Cheers,
Harry
