Boy, I still need to do a lot more



Looks good! I like the accent color on the dash. I did mine when I swapped mine out. It was a little scary but feels good to do my own mods.

I fitted heated seats and a dash cam to mine. There's not much to see apart from the switches in the batwing. The camera is hidden behind the mirror so had to take the photo from the side:

Nice work! I've been running a dash cam for about a year now but have yet to fully integrate it or its wiring.

I took the cover off, removed the external mothball guardians, battery tender and exhaust protection. Took it out for 10 minutes before it started raining. Highs in 40s through Tuesday, low to mid 50s through next Sunday.

Will Spring never arrive? AAAGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Is it a 2002-4 with the internal filter in the sending unit? May want to check the sending unit for flow, a blocked fuel filter in mine burned up 3(!!) fuel pumps (original, and two OE replacements). Finally swapped in a used sending unit and pump from DC Auto, and it's been great since.

Polished my headlights and installed a set of spinlocks in order to fit a pair of Speedster Humps that I need to get painted first.

Which dashboard cam did you get? All the ones I saw had a screen built in and were kind of big, I like the way yours is hidden behind the mirror.
