A little troubleshooting today.
-Fixed Passenger good speaker rattle. Was as simple are a missing screw.
-Confirmed that the drivers seat motor or switch needs work. I moved the working passenger seat to the driver side, plugged it in and it worked. So that means that my drivers seat and nothing "more serious". Going to take the seat and switch apart to see what's what when I feel more ambitious.

Oh, and, taught one of my daughters how to drive a manual in it today. She's 16 and was great at it! So much fun!

Yeah, I noticed that. Sorry.

Any tips on how to resize them?

I even tried to delete them, but I don't see a way to do so.

Resize the originals before you upload them. The only way to fix the above is to go in and delete the big ones posted and replace with smaller ones. I usually resize to a medium 480x800 reso. Seems to work for just about any display.

Thank you, I tried to delete the existing ones, but I cannot find a delete button. I'd be glad to delete the entire post, if I could.

Edit: Never mind, I figured out how to delete them. Thanks!

Do you feel it making a difference? I sometimes take mine out and put it in again, and see if I can tell. Doesn't seem to make much of a difference, except perhaps on gusty days.

I actually haven't had it up to speed yet, where I imagine it would make the most difference. It looks cool, however.
