Annnnd, passenger seat is stuck in the all-the-way-forward position.
Take that you stupid stripped-out-plastic-rod-aligning-screw-nut-thingie!Go manual my son. Go manual
Works perfectly at least for now.
Took my wife and 4 year old son up to Ohio for a week to visit family and friends in our 97 LX. Only issue was a blown 30A fuse for the power windows. Found some spares at O'Reilly.

Stop moving your seat back and forth! I’d go ahead and not plug in the power to it until you get back home.
Please no...

Ok, so if I had been drinking milk when I saw your post it would have shot out my nose! That is so cool. You truly have the rarity of great beauty, but not just on the outside.
Thanks for bringing the fun.

Was that a Freudian slip?
How did you link milk and that picture in your head?

Gave it a bath. Spent so much time getting mechanicals in order, this was long overdue.
Finally built a proper gauge cluster to hold my voltage gauges and temperature gauge. Need to color in the engraving to make it stand out a bit more. Everything turns on/off with a little toggle switch. After about 5 years of the gauges jammed into the blanks, I finally made it look a bit cleaner.
Volt1- Front battery voltages
Volt2 -Currently tells me coil voltage
Temp- Outside temp (under the front bumper)

Posted this over in the Power section under @Cruiserdrew’s rubicon solar thread.
I had a 65W Siemens panel running through a Monightar SunSaver controller to an Interstate Batteries Group 27 Marine Lead Acid battery. It couldn’t keep up with my cheapo Edgestar 80qt fridge.
So I did the logical thing. Bought a new, bigger panel rather than diagnose what was actually wrong. I figured the panel was 10+ years old anyway.
Put the new panel on and some days it would be fine. Other days no. So, I wondered if the battery was bad. Got it checked out. It was fine. So I would throw my charger on the battery and things would be ok for a couple of days.
Well, today I had some time so I started trouble shooting it and checking all of the connections. Disconnecting everything and reconnecting everything.
And then I get to the negative post on the battery. Oops. I had torqued it down tight as hell. Later finding out that 12lbs/ft is the proper torque number for screw posts. So the post was loose in there. Thus not giving me a good ground some of the time.
Well, I went to my friendly Interstate Batteries and picked up a new Group 31 and shoe horned it in. Kept the old Group 27 for a dual battery system on my son’s 80 series and solar setup.
Apparently you can just torch the lead around the bolt and push the lead in to fix it.
The new Group 31. Need a proper hold down...paging LCP...

Went camping for father's day weekend with my kiddos. Had a lot of fun and relaxed!
Boys loved going 5mph
