I've been busy today with the TL...
First off.. I went rattle hunting.
- In my front passenger door, there was an annoying rattle that I later discovered to be a wiring harness. Put bubble wrap and electrical tape around that. No more rattle.
- I tightened some screws throughout, thus fixing more rattles
- Put grease in the glovebox latch.
- Installed dynamat throughout dash's innards. Makes for a quieter interior (already put dynamat underneath the carpet )
- Shampooed, vaccuumed and did a full leather treatment.
-The front console had a loose screw that held up the storage compartment lid, fixed that with an extension.
-Replaced a foglight that went out. Aimed the headlights to a bit more towards my liking.
So.. I'd say I was busy.. I'm going to put a strut tower bar one of these days and get an alignment (its not bad but needs to be done in the name of prevention)

My driver's is slower. Makes for a real pain in the ass when I arm the car and walk away cause sometimes it doesn't go up like it's supposed to, have to disarm and arm several times! (That REALLY sucks if I am walking away the other way cuse then I cant see it and don't know!!)
