What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Well technically it wasn't today, but I was driving along last night when I noticed there was some kind of strange craft hovering off to my right above the road.

As I slowed down to look closer, I was suddenly bathed in a blue light so intense, I was forced to pull over and stop on the side of the road.

I then felt the truck rock gently and the next thing I know — I'm slowly ascending towards the craft!

I know some people feel that resistance is futile, but the threat of an imminent anal-probing was more than enough to convince me that I would not give up without a fight!

So I threw that beeotch in 4-low — engaged the locker and busted loose from the "long" fingers of my would-be alien abductors!

Yes, the e-locker works in mid-air too!






Oh wait....that was just some bug guts on the window, so I swung into a car wash to kill some time while the wife shopped.

Haha, this was made me laugh out loud on the quiet floor of my school library. Thanks for that.
 
Happy Veterans Day to all my brothers and sisters out there!

Enjoyed today by washing up the rig after finally installing all the goods.

Made an interior latch for the rear door. Can easily open rear door from inside now.

Serious! This is genius! Bike cable to pull up and it's nice and small too. How hard is it to pull?

Thanks! Its really not hard at all. The cable is a ceramic coated type for less friction, and its moving only the latch release, not any of the associated linkage, i can open it with one little pinky no problem.

Used a nice long piece of cable housing to route it around the window mechanism, so the window can still go down all the way no problem.
 
Baby got new leather skins!

Right on! My original thought was something similar to the hood release mechanism. But I like your way better. Hope you don't mind if I shamelessly steal it!
 
Nice! What's the details? Brand, price, real leather or faux?

Real automotive leather Automills Leather is the brand. California Upholstery in LA. They do high end custom and a lot of low riders. Lots of the stuff in magazines. Was referred by a friend so I called them for a quote and BAM! $650 for the two front seats. Not too shabby because the prices I was getting before was $450 or more for one seat. Only one bad thing. Cash only so I couldn't get mileage points on the credit card.
