Garage
I've been trying to get busy before it gets too hot to work in the garage during the day, so I took care of some small things that needed doing:
  1. Fixed radio speaker grounding issue -- since I'm using the factory amp, I just left the speaker wires loose, and one got smushed up against the back of the radio. Doh! I heat-shrank them and reinstalled.
  2. While I was in there, I also swapped the two wires for ignition and constant power -- my radio was reset every time the car was shut off, just a minor annoyance, but fixed now.
  3. Wired in the reverse wire under the driver's seat to my radio in preparation for a backup camera. That was the first time I removed the seat, so now I know how to do that. Getting the connector off was tricky if you've never done it before (there's a part that slide over to lock and unlock it).
  4. Reset airbag code with Durametric (again). I may need a new seatbelt receptacle, it wasn't due to #3....
  5. Fixed the passenger side mirror (plug was just loose)
  6. Discovered that my newly-replaced vinyl window leaks in at least two places
  7. Drove her all over town (before the rain)
