Birddog0347 rescues a Fox

[bird_dog0347]

I have that crap in my car and it falls down, FYI. Don't worry about adding another layer, I'd focus on adding some closed cell foam on top of what you have.

gotcha, it's somewhat on the underside of the trunk lid and on the doors, but otherwise it's only on the floor pan. I've looked into the closed cell foam and might do that as well.

Being a nice day out I decided to take the day off work and fix a few things on the fox. A few weeks ago after a day of driving it I noticed the drivers rear tire was flat the next day. I pulled the wheel to find the damage and it turned out the puncture was less than 1 inch from the inside sidewall. Combine the damage location with the fact the tires were right at the wear bars I knew that no one would patch it for me so I searched craigslist and found a pair of 275/35/18 Nitto NT05 tires brand new still with stickers and nipples all over them for $350 so I picked those up and had them installed today. While I had the car up on jack stands I finally pulled my speedo cable out of the T5 to see what gear was inside the tailshaft so I would know what to buy for it. Turns out I had the 7 tooth yellow one and it appeared to be in good shape. I got to thinking about it and decided I didn't want to have to wait till Monday/Tuesday to install a new gear if I had to order from LMR and decided to call Dallas Mustang and sure enough they had the 20 tooth gear I needed so I picked it up and installed that today as well. Now that the gear is swapped I finally know how fast it's going and can have an accurate mileage count on it.

Just wondering, how did you order? Just go to their homepage and order it up? Were you still able to use the dfwm discount code? They just dropped us and are no longer a sponsor so I am curious.

I ordered through the website, and I still got a 6% discount code from Jarrod on this site this morning... but I did notice the subforum was gone so I had to search for him and the post but still found it.

They left because Eric stopped posting?

Well, part of my order has already arrived. The seats are packaged nicely and the box wasn't beat up. I've got to assemble the tracks before I can install them but I went ahead and just snapped a few pics for now, more pics and a review later on assuming I can break away today and install them.

Hmmm, the hardware doubled up on the allen head bolts to mount the track to the seat, and left out the correct hardware to assemble the tracks. Looks like I'm running to Lowes to get bolts/nuts/washers as I don't have 8 of each that match laying around.

Crazy how the order comes next day!

The seats look good NIck... cant wait for updated pics !

The 8% code is Textax

Seats are in, carpets all cleaned up, etc. This weekend I'll get the CAI installed and headlights adjusted. I put the antenna on and now I have radio I can hear. I also got my floor pan today, black lug nuts, as well as the Trick Flow cats, and spent about an hour talking to Jack from MM about what I need for dampers/springs so that order will be placed likely Monday or Tuesday when Jack can recommend the proper spring rates. I'll also get subframe connectors and I need to buy a welder.

How are those seats? I've heard both ends of the spectrum but I think they look great.
