Fun stuff today. Pulled out the temp. control module and replaced the LCD screen using the ModuleMaster kit. Super easy and great results.

Also clayed the car for the first time. Lots of work and will admit, on a 12 year old car, sometimes you are better to leave a bit of dirt on there! Great, now to find some touch up paint.

Claying and waxing sure makes it smooth, but any paint blemishes will really show through. Oh - and if you have that 3M coating on the hood - be careful with the clay. It will stick get under the edge and make a mess. Go with the grain, not against it.
