Something like that

I wish I had ordered new speakers, a few misc seals and rear window scrapers (while you're in there does get expensive)

I didn't have to remove the top! A few friends came over to help me remove the top (colin coon was one of them) and while poking around I showed my friend KJ the torx fastener that was being a problem. He ran to his car and grabbed this from his trunk



he said he had a feeling he might need it today. It was longer than my 3/8 and with the swivel head the torque could be put directly on the bolt and snap went the loctite and out came the torx fastener! Awesome day!

It's great when things go as or better than expected.

I don't get to feel that satisfaction often.
