Got Some Mod Pics To Post...but

I want to post pictures of my horn mod in the thread like so many of you have done. Do I have to resize each picture to 480 by 640 to post them here like I had to do for my gallery posts? Also, I don't know how to post pictures in the thread or add text to them to explain the steps of the mod. Can someone help? I'd really appreciate it. I mounted two Fiaam Grande's under the hood, atop the A/C condenser. Can't wait to show you guys.

If you upload them to the Chevyhhr.net gallery, it automatically does this.. Just post the images using the [IMG] [/IMG] code.. with no space, and those at each end.

JJ,

I had the same problem and solved it by becoming a premium member (small fee involved) and then that lets you add attachments to your posts as long as they don't exceed certain file sizes.

Check out Chevy Managers response to the "Vin # Blocked post. The reply gives instructions on posting photo's. Hopefully it will solve your problem with posting.

This one.... How to post photos


And if you upload them here in the gallery they will resize automatically. That should do it for you.

Thanks much folks. All is appreciated. I think I have to rersize before I can upload them. I'll get that done and then we'll see what happens next. Thanks again to all of you good people of Earth.

Here goes, trying to include a picture in this post. Let's see if I did it right. Looks good. This pic shows the new flexible conduit used.

The horns are bolted to beam clamps shown here. The beam clamps are attached to the radiator core support.

New wires butt spliced to factory wires. I went overboard on the conductor size. #18 wire would be plenty adequate. I used #14. The new conduit is large enough to over wrap the factory conduit for a seamless jacket.

This pic shows the path I routed the new conduit up and into the engine compartment.
