Not a lot, replaced the wheel caps. Stock caps were in much worse shape than
I thought. New caps, colored badges instead of the etched version, look so much
better and aren't missing half or more of the retaining legs.
In the next week or so, rear shelf gets speakers and Window regulators on
both sides will be replaced. Have the parts, just not the time yet

Finished off my mono-tone look by doing my side mirror brackets. Rear bumperettes, mud guards already done.

Installed speakers and grills into my rear deck shelf, wired them up and reinstalled the
rear deck. Monday I should have the last 2 bits, harness to the radio and the mounting
retainer clip for the harness. Why the cable doesn't come with it is beyond me.

Are those the ones that are $250ish a set or replicas? Only thing stopping me from replacing my beat to heck ones is the outrageous price.
