We're down to a single page of items to complete this project.

Biggest challenge so far has been finding someone to recover the seats. We thought about trying our hand at this, however, the rear seat covers will need to be modified, and this is better left to professionals (the seat is narrowed 4" to accommodate the mini tubs).

We drove back into the wiring this weekend. A friend's been telling me to try Deutsch connectors and a specialized crimper, so I bought a kit on Amazon...wish I would tried them sooner! Much easier and quicker to make (and disassemble) than Weather-Pack/Metri-Pack. The Deutsch style contacts also provide sturdier connections with smaller gauge (e.g., 20awg) wire than WP/MP style terminals.



Also installed wheel flares.They were the originals, and fit well. The welting needed some adjustment where it folds over at the top, but not too bad for our first time doing this. We used 3m trim and emblem adhesive.
