Thank you GREAT info

Yesterday, Sweetie’s blood numbers failed, so she tries again on Friday!
Today we’ll take a relaxing cruise in the BlackSwan, listen to some tunes, stop for a coffee, relax and enjoy the ride!
I ordered a part from Dorman thru RockAuto, it came in , so I can repin the LED head light.
Watch for a thread on that repair soon!

Designed and 3D printed a phone holster with a USB cable so I can just slot my phone in and hook up to the stereo's Android Auto without too much fiddling. I'll run the cable behind the console later, I bought a second head unit that I'll be violating the warranty on to add a rear USB port and hide all the dangly bits.

Had to modify the cold air intake tube I found at the auto salvage yard.
When I went back to look at the HHR I got it off of, I noticed no windshield washer bottle.
That explained why it didn't fit on mine.
Should have looked when I was there the first time.
Also fabricated a second bracket for a more solid install.
Ordered a K&N filter to fit into the space alloted and will install next weekend.
Now debating with myself if I want to fabricate some type of shield to draw air from the hole in the inner fender
And pictures will be included.
AHH, the joy of tinkering.
