Well, thought I'd take the day off and do some cleaning up/repairing ... started with the 'maro after deciding the seats (and rear defog) have been dead long enough ... pulled out both seats, still had the short ... wiggled around the lines going to the defog, short was gone -- but passenger side seat back in - still fine ... dropped in the driver seat - short is back ... so after pulling it back out (them 'bird seats are pretty heavy ... and with somewhere between 80 or 90 in the sun, it's not really fun), it seems like the seat was pushing on the cables ... got the seat back in now, and it's still working ... not really happy with the "repair" as I didn't do much except move the cables slightly, but ...

The result is what counts, not how to get there...

many times it is "easy" fixes... even better because inexpensive.
wish they ALL would be that easy.

I did the free Ram Air modification this Sunday night because I was bored....the one from Installer University. It was easier for me, since my airbox is different then the v8 ver. I notice a considerable difference, even when starting the car. The throttle is much more responsive. It was fairly easy to do...I would recommend cutting with the dremel in a cool area...it was hot as hell last night and as I cut it was melting.
