Today - about 2 hours on the forum; 2 more to put leather conditioner on the seats, steering wheel, shift boot and ****, e-brake handle and boot, center console lid, and door pulls; then another 1-2 hours thinking about what the next mods will be.

Me sentiments exactly. It's been a great weekend on the forum. The cars in bed for the winter. Time to relax and enjoy.
