Bloggers take vacations too.

Either he promised not to touch the keyboards on vacation or his wife gave him the ancient Chinese finger torture...

Hey Ken enjoy the holidays!

Hey everyone!! Happy New Year, hope everyone had a nice holiday season.

Just a quick update on the DWS. Very good in the snow! And my car was sitting in the cold (5F-20F) for 9 days and no issue with flatspotting. Used 37psi.

Will check in again in spring. Have a good winter.

watz up everyone! im doing alright. hope you all had a good winter.

so i ordered up a couple of things today for the stereo install...

got the fm harness, the wiring harness, bypass relay thingie for e-brake, the passport inner trim bezel thingie, and aswc.

i need to still get the factory nav bezel and brackets which i will order this week. since mine is a '12, i need to get the dark colored bezel.

im thinking about running a 4yr old AVH3100DVD i had in my other car, but since im spending so much on the peripheral, i was thinking maybe i should just buy a AVH2500BT or something that has built-in bluetooth and crisper screen.

your thoughts?

little by little my bits for stereo install are coming in.

need the temp to get a tad warmer though... i dont want break tabs while taking that stock stereo out.

btw, is this screw i need to take out from the cup holder area looking up, somewhat visible without killing myself?
