Winter is about to set in, here in New England. With that comes the time to attack my list of "to do" things to my vert. The list isn't that long, for now. Christmas will either add or subtract to that list
In no particular order:
1. Get new TPMS for the new to me wheels (change of plans)
2. Get new tires for wheels (mounted and balanced) (DONE)
3. Install new pads and rotors (while said wheels and tires are off) (DONE)
4. Clean and paint calipers (while said wheels and tires are off) (DONE)
5. Get an alignment
6. solder climate control to fix faded display (DONE)
7. fix the dreaded seat rocking
8. replace the oil sending unit (gauge is pegged)
9. Install my new "screens" into the fog housing (DONE)
10. install any new parts I may get for Christmas (we'll see how well my wife listened) She didn't listen, so I'll be getting my own CAI and exhaust!!
If I can get these things done before April, I'll be happy. Keep in mind, come the end of January, I'll be at work more than I'll be at home, until mid April (tax season).
Feel free to post tips/tricks on any of the above to help me out.
Edited 1/8/17:
Original pads, rotors, wagon wheels. Original pads and rotors New slotted, drilled and freshly painted calipers New pads, rotors and painted calipers Original plan was chrome... Changed directions and went with black/polished lip. Also happens to be 18's all around now too. Black/polished lip C5Z replicas Looks pretty good!
The week before I put mine away the oil pressure sender took a dump. Now I have that to look forward to in the spring. Otherwise everything should be good to go.
I also have a list of "to do's" for my '04.
First item is to put air in the left front tire, second is to connect my battery tender one day a week. Half done already.
I'm 3.5 hours in, and will have to finish another day. Worst was removing all factory stuff. Some of my pieces were glued, and I needed to remove my screens from the front facia (that I just installed). They'll go back in, the long tabs were in the way for installing the ducts. Anyway, now I have to trim the couplings, as other members suggested. I still have to remove one sensor from the factory bridge too.
