Tried out a $20 Amazon foam cannon… pretty pleased with how it performed

"What Have You Done To Your ST Today"

I checked underneath the vehicle to see if the single rear axle bolt was intact and everything was still in one piece. ALL GOOD!(y)

Did you set the parking brake on before you crawled underneath? I'm trying to develop the habit and so far it's about 50-50.

hahaha

I told a guy last week about the rear one bolt thing and he got underneath to look at it.
I was nervous for him and eventually told him to get out!

Added in-channel vent visors purchased from SuperAutoUSA.

20220430_145828.jpg

Installation Notes:
  • In order for the windows to roll up with no issues, rear flanges from the first row visors and front flanges from the second row visors have to be wedged between the gloss black B Pillar trim and the rubber trim. All other flanges slide into the window channel.
  • Tesa tape was added to the metal retaining clips in order to prevent potential window scratching/window tint marring.
  • When installing the retaining clips, the barb side contacts the rubber trim and the smooth side contacts the visor.

Driving Notes:
  • No significant increase in wind noise when driving city speeds.
  • At highway speeds, there is a slight increase in wind noise. With music playing though, the increased wind noise isn't noticeable.

I could've had the patience to install the badge. Maybe.

FMIC? NOPE!

They are not that hard, I did mine a few weeks ago. The hardest part is getting those two bolts out that attaches the bumper cover to the fender on each side.

Installed my AFE Intake. Thanks Tyler and Lethal Performance! Made sure I had a #20 hose clamp on hand to replace the factory clamp on my bypass hose. Easy install, except the bypass clamp and driver's turbo clamp! Between the lack of room and my right hand still healing from a metacarpal break, those weren't fun.

Installed a battery pack for extended Park Mode and isolation from the car's battery, for my THINKWARE Q800PRO dash cam. Easy peasy if you already have the hardwire cable installed to your fusebox--you just need ACC (spare fuse 37) and ground. I have the unit sitting underneath the driver's seat.

Edit: price seems to fluctuate. I paid $209.

Got the 0 gauge run through the firewall. Shout out to @UNBROKEN for the great spot next to the cabin air filter. Why do my hands always look like I went 10 rounds with Mike Tyson whenever I am fishing wires???

Had a tidy up in the garage so it doesn't live in the side yard... Not quite there yet...

Put in my new XS battery with the charging port idea I stole from @UNBROKEN

Then I got the Check Charging System soon message. Worried I screwed something up with that bogus plate that mounts on the positive post. Turned out I missed reconnecting a small connector on the ground connector. Whew!

Pulled up at a red light next to *lesser* Gen 6 this morning.... click..click.. Light turned green & I was GONE. He crawled off the light & I was at least 200 yards ahead by the time he cleared the intersection. No fun at all... :(
