trouble, troubles troubles,
The top doesn't want to go up all the time. it goes down , but not up every time.

Also found the problem with the back pass. window, loose connection on the relay, and bad limit switch. easy fix, easy fix.

Also is idling really strange lately. going to pull the codes this week and see what's not working this year. I already know it probably needs a new engine temp. sensor

Other then that...... I got the seat material being shipped on Thursday, and I'll be swapping the consolette for a full center console. and of course I'll have pics.

finally put these on for the seat belts. still needs a little modding but It's a trial and error sort of build.. At least I don't have to look on the floor behind the seat to put on a seatbelt.
I also made a tool to take the headreasts off. a 12" x 1-1/2" strip of sheetmetal, with a rolled over top edge to push down with. Works great..

well, after the gear selector install. I decided to install the center console that I had sitting around since I bought the car.

so starts the rippin apart


I couldn't imagine why on earth the car always smelled like a pine forest... Now I know why. lol








Cutting off the consolette, and putting the seat back together






putting the car back together




Hey... Is this the elusive pass power seat plug?




That's all for today. Not bad for 2 hrs.

I like it !!! Much better without the consolette. I wonder about that plug. I actually have no idea where the plug is for the passenger power seat is,and I'm going to be doing that swap eventually. Did you test the plug to see if that was it? It hit 104 today,heat index 118. I stayed in the house when I got home from work.No love for the Sport today.

That should be the main plug for the console harness...

Looks good, Jerry. I can help with the explanation for the pine air fresheners: I once got a part shipped to me from Bearmax and he stuffed a bunch of those in the box also. He must have a fetish for them. :tg:

Cool, now I need to put the power track in the pass side.

Eric, now I know why I found those pine air fresheners everywhere. :rollin:  There were 3 hanging in the car when I got it and some in the trunk. but you probably already knew that when it made a stop at your house on the way up here. ;)

So everyone knows.... The inside will be redone when the car gets redone.. I separated the seat from the armrest now, because the seats will get recovered this fall when I put it away for the winter. Just putting things in and modifying now, so they can be refinished or improved on before next spring. After I finish installing the center bezel this week, the shoulder belts will be finished next so I can finally bolt the back seat in. :hick:

installed the cup holder behind the bezel today.. Now looking for some stuff to fill the bottom area. Suppose I should put a lighter or a power port in. Maybe both




Still have to pull out the stereo so it's flush, and figure out what to do with the sprayed color of the console tray... Hmmmm

My stereo was back a little too.I just shimmed it with a few washers behind the mounting tabs and used slightly longer screws.Nice work.Hopefully I'll have my cup holder parts tomorrow and I can get mine done.You're still doing great.You should move down here,we'd have a blast.

Is that the plug? I will be hooking up my power passenger side seat and harness soon.

I gotta figure out where the plug is so I can swap the harness. Granted,I'll find out when I pull everything,but,I like to have an idea before hand.
