Put this Blue Ridge Overland Gear seat panel on a while ago and finally took some pictures. Their car seats have cup holders but its never enough and they're kinda in the way. we use the named pouches for toys and fun stuff for the car (usually kid binoculars, compass, and that kind of stuff) and snacks in the clear pouch. Helps keep them independent and occupied during the many hours we spend on the road or trails. You can fit quite a lot in these, plus its a local company!

that’s cool! Looking into that!
 
Started the process of paint correcting the 100 tonight. It’s going to be a lot of work but totally worth it. This is my first time trying this so hoping it turns out.

Swapped my dying alternator out for a remanufactured 130 amp Denso unit on my ‘06. Changed the belt too with a Bando 6PK2240. It was a PITA to get it out through the top but I managed to do. Undid the mounting bolts for the power steering pump but did not have to detach the hard line or pulley.

Machine polish on a black pad 7” buffer
Finish compound on blue pad random orbital

All 3m products.

From a fellow Arkansan who’s very familiar with the narrow pinstriping trails of the Ozarks and Ouachitas, that looks great! Do you plan on finishing everything off with a wax, coating, or other protectant?
 
My battery finally took a dump earlier this week, it was the battery that came with the LX when I bought it a few years ago, so I knew this day would come. Went to Costco to pick up a new battery and I realized then that the battery that came with the LX wasn't even the right size. The size I had in it was a Group 24, and the correct size was 27. Ok, no big deal, bought a new one, then as I was taking off the battery tie down it started to crumble from the overly oxidized stuff from the old battery.
So I ordered a new tie down, and wow, what a difference. I never knew my old tie down was deteriorating. 1/4 of one banana job
