I have several canvas zippered bags to hold various items. Each bag has the velcro for labels so I will eventually geek out on patches. So far its Med Kit, Tire Repair, and Don’t Tread on Me. I pull the canvas bag that gets me closer to what I want. It works for me until I can find a better way.
 
I guess I'm not driving this one today.

I think I'm gonna try FlexSeal tape on the sunroof. I usually use the silver HVAC tape to seal the sunroofs going into the rainy season (because I park under trees year 'round and am tired of cleaning sunroof drains) but that doesn't stand up to very much roof flex, meaning it's best suited for vehicles that don't drive much. You'd be surprised how much flex occurs around the sunroof in daily driving - test it yourself with a single layer of HVAC tape.

I just hope that FlexSeal removes cleanly. Anybody have experience with it?

When the seal in my 100 failed, I used plastidip. Just taped off and sprayed 3-4 coats. Worked great for a couple of weeks until my new seal came in. Came off cleanly like it wasn't even there. I haven't used flexseal personally so I can't comment on the ability to remove it cleanly.

Anyone have any recommendations for center console organization? My new 60 looks to have a smittybuilt center console that's just a huge void of storage. Ideally looking for a top organizer pocket (like Accessory Panel Unit-100 Series early - https://absolute-wits-end.com/accessory-panel-unit-100-series-early/) and maybe something I can mount down inside of it.

Depends what you're looking to organize. I put some of my stuff in bags in the console, other stuff just thrown in. My ford's tuffy just has s*** thrown in.

My vote goes to canvas pouches that zip up. Eaay to throw in, dig out, and keeps stuff somewhat protected.

John.

The sunroof on my f250 broke a while back. It now won’t close all the way ( in the up position) to make a complete seal with the metal opening.

Below is a link to what I used.
What I did is take one of those rolls and cut it in half to make 6 inch by 5 foot strips of vinyl “wrap”. All I did was cover the edges of my glass to where there is 3 inches on the glass and 3 inches on the paint. I did this all the way around. Problem solved and problem going to stay solved. It was meant to be a temporary fix but I like not having any wind noise at all on top of keeping water out. Because I only covered three inches of the glass all the way around I can still open the inside visor portion and let sun in when ever I want.

I like it so much that I am planning to use it on my 80. But on the 80 I used an old flat telephone cable and stuffed it between the glass and the gasket essentially making it 1/8 thicker and now I don’t have to worry about air noise at all. And that only took 5 minutes and still have use of the sunroof if I want to use it. It that one actually functions correctly unlike the one on my ford that is broken and won’t shut all the way.

I've had flex seal tap on my 80 sunroof for 2 years and it's still holding strong. Is worth the $

But his lawyer will argue he was checking the bolt torques to make sure they were safe when this negligently lifted vehicle fell on his poor samaritan client. Sue the vehicle owner for negligence, manufacturer for making the vehicle heavy, the maker of the jackstand for making them unsteady, and god for gravity.
 
These are flying around today, remember the IRS will NOT use email, only USPS. Do not click on this link.

Agreed.

Toyota is killing me, just letting the Bronco and Wrangler walk over them. So sad.
 
Leaving work last night. Merry Xmas everyone.
