    You'll get better... when I first started wiring things into my first car, I was just twisting wires together and wrapping them with duct tape (14 years ago...)
    Duct tape? That's fancy, I used scotch tape.

        How did you get the dash speakers out? It looks simple, but with the windshield in the way. I have not found a tool small enough to work.

          In the past, I've used a 1/4" box wrench with a phillips bit and done it like that. Gotta be careful not to drop the bit though.

                yay my heater core came now to get my paycheck and have john sexton install it. had to go with an aftermarket one becuase the ford heater cores are obsolete now cant find a single one.
