Nice. Mine wasn't nearly that bad. Does/did your AC work? I'm assuming not.
That is nuts. What country was it in again?

No, that's what started this rabbit hole! I replaced the compressor clutch bearing naively hoping that would take care of my problem. No go. So I just decided to go through the whole system. Now I just have to get it back together before I forget where everything goes

While I have it out, I did a little refurb on the gauge cluster. I swapped out the bulbs for LED's, painted the needles and replaced the glass. My particular cluster has 15 bulbs.
Here is the paint I used for the needles and the bulbs I used from Super Bright LED's. The 194's are the large bulbs and the 74's are the smaller.
194-GCOB1W (Green) 4 req.
194-NWCOB1W (Nat. White) 3 Req.
74-GHP (Green) 1 Req.
74-NWHP (Nat. White) 7 Req.

Nice
That original glass ain't bad. Mine looked like someone sprayed oil on it in 2004 and never cleaned it. It was so bad.

I'm eventually going to get the door speaker pods, but in the meantime I installed these 4" JL Audio speakers. I swapped the brackets over from the old speakers to the new ones. I did have to use spacers to keep the speakers from rubbing against the dash, but it was a very simple swap.
