I can Definitely see how it was in the way before you dropped it. Looks like it blocked about a third to half of the window.

Not too sure if I like the look of the wheel being that low. Looks outta place. I would consider a roof mount before mounting it that low.

Today I got my drivers side fender and front bumper taken off. Tomorrow I plan to remove the core support. Want to get the motor pulled within the next few weeks to replace it with another CPI 4.3 before the end of March.

Hi NewGuy
Added the License Plate Bracket/ Light last night.

Next is to replace the Passengers Door Outside Handle.
One end is Flopping around when you close the Door.

Finally got around to installing that stereo! I used the battery trick to identify the speaker wires and got it all put together. Signal still drops out, so I'm thinking it's probably the antenna cable. Light pressure on the stereo gets it back, so I'll leave it be unless it becomes more problematic. Chasing an antenna cable sucks.

At least you got it working. That's a step in the right direction. My son is talking about hooking something up in his so that he can attach his phone via a USB cord and just play from a playlist.

No doubt you're right. Chasing a cable antenna sucks.
