Received mine with no issues. Love the shirt, feels high quality. Seems like the size runs slightly smaller than other t-shirts, so I'm going to order another one at one size up just to see.

I'm guessing it drives like it did in 1997. It's my daily driver when there is no salt on the roads, so it gets parked in the winter. I work from home, so I don't run up a lot of miles on either of my vehicles. The LC just hit 218,000 and it had 205,xxx when I picked it up from the auction lot...

They sound great. I am powering them with the Morel amp installed in the Delta VS QPM. I ran new speaker wire from the amp to all speakers. I really tried to fit them under OEM speaker grilles without mods, but it wasn't possible. The tradeoff for me was worth it - good speaker in the door with...

Hijacking to see if someone knows whether there were rubber pads between both compartments. I see indentations where rubber pads might have lived, but my rig never had anything there. There is small play when I lift either the upper or lower lid, so I assume there used to be something there to...

Disagree that it is stupid expensive. It serves a good purpose well and there is no alternative out there. I'm happy to contribute to the maker's profit.

Save the rig. Getting a clean rig running again costs less than getting a running rig clean again.

I had essentially the same setup and mine worked fine. Unplug/remove the factory amp and use Metra 70-1761. I didn't plug anything into the factory amp connectors, just left them alone. Could it be some setup config in the head unit?

Crappy steering wheel for 80 series with airbag. I bought this from a seller in Dubai thinking that it was "restored". It was actually painted and doesn't quite match. The painted leather is wrinkly and the foam has separated from the core in multiple places. I ended up sending my original...

1997 LC. Doesn't have that.

Agree. I love how it looks factory and it's a perfect replacement for the unnecessary clock.

In the same boat. Unknowingly got the gray and later found out the cream were NLA. I bought a few shades of this paint to try and mix it to match. Haven't found the right mix yet, but in my initial tests, the paint did stick nicely and flexes well. When I do get around to finding the right mix...

With rain forecasted here for the next couple of days, Sunday might be the day to get my 80 back on the road.

Yeah. Much easier to remove the seat. Four bolts and wiring harness connectors.
