Thank you....the FIT is a fun car to drive. I recently put a short shift kit in the mix and what a joy to drive now.

Looking very good J. You're mighty dedicated braving this nasty cold to keep the build going. I b***ch and moan about having to work in my semi-heated garage. Keep up the excellent work and I look forward to seeing and hearing it soon.

Oh I have days like that, but ultimately I love the challenge, even when the install fights me to the death. My 8 year old Black and Decker drill was a victim of my rage today. I was unimpressed with it's lack of battery power and the fact I stripped a stainless bolt into the amp rack..... Luckily, I had an extra tnut and the epoxy was forgiving.

Hopefully Jason finishes the stitching and wrapping of the a-pillar by tomorrow. I'm getting anxious to put the dash back together!

my pods from last year were even worse. These are perfect. I drive with my foot under the clutch. I have very wide feet to boot..."5 E" on my left so it's comfortable for me.

Thanks Dave....a positive comment from you ..... They were made that big for a couple reasons. First keep in mind that those are 8.5" drivers. Second, the inside got a boat of lead shot, filler and milkshake. I did not want the cabinet to affect the L8's backwave. In the end, yes they are big, but I'm not doing this for comfort. Since my foot rests in the channel next to my seat.

Thanks for that apillar comments. Hopefully they will be ready before Sat.
