A and C...
The other projects will be easier once you have all your storage efficiently organized...

LOL, I didn't do shit. I wanted to crawl up in the crawl space to hook up the speakers, but I didn't know how to hook up the speakers to an existing B-set of speakers. I didn't know what it would do to the overall impedence.

I figured out I can't put cabinets in the space above my TV. Most cabinets are 30" high, and the space I have is about 27". Oh well.

I think this weekend I may look up how to change and replace the water pump on my wife's 2003 Honda Civic. I have a Hayne's manual, but has anyone replaced them before in a Civic? Any special tools I need?

Well, I installed a cabinet in my garage. I don't have pictures yet, but the finish is a dark cherry wood, and I think it gives the garage (so far) an upscale appearance. I also hooked up the speakers in my garage to the in-wall volume control. Next project is to buy a speaker selector (any suggestions) and hook that up to the speakers and my receiver.

I will be hooking up my speaker wires from my receiver to the in-wall volume control in my garage this weekend. I also would like to paint my wife's plastic rims.

Naw, I'm going to wait until my dad gets down in early November. I think her car can wait until then. I still have to physically locate where the heck the water pump is on my wife's Civic.

I installed the speakers and the volume control unit last night. Very happy with the results.
