Busy Week With Mods

It's been a busy week for me. This week I have:
1. Installed Magic Mirrors (Lamonster)
2. Installed LED headlights and fog lights. (Slingmods)
3. Installed a trunk organizer. (Slingmods)
4. Installed a short antenna. (Slingmods)
5. Installed a Pedal Box. (Lamonster)
6. Installed a mud flap. (Slingmods)

It all took a few hours, but well worth it. I feel like I have a new Spyder! I disconnected the analog fuel and temp gauges (The magnets on the Magic Mirrors interfered with them). I like the ones on the display much better. The Pedal Box is amazing! LED's are awesome. Antenna is smaller and still has great reception.

I'm a happy guy!

Well done. You're a faster installer than I am. Those tasks would have taken me the better part of a weekend, but then I stop at regular intervals to wonder if I've done something wrong, not to mention another coffee or cola.

I may have made it sound a little faster than it was! I did the mirrors one evening. Did the Pedal box on another day. All the rest took about 6 hours yesterday. I am the same, stop to wonder, stop for coffee or sweet tea. I was ecstatic when I was done and there was no left over hardware!

I resemble that! ;) . Good to see I'm not the only one who's skilled at missing/losing stuff! :rolleyes:

Brings to mind the old saying used by many fabricators - "We make things nice cos we do them twice - or maybe three times..." :p

LED Headlights and LED Foglights

:coffee:...I did my LED Lighting, and it took me just over 4 hours. I had watched the videos about 5 times and had all the correct tools. It is a lot of work but well worth it. My local Spyder Dealer quoted 3.5 hours @ $150.00 hour.

Definitely felt good about it and enjoyed the 'fun' of a job well done.
My Tip: Don't sell yourself short, but definitely understand all that's involved beforehand.

Stay Healthy and Enjoy Your Day. ....:thumbup:

It's called 5 weeks working 6 days/12 hours! A little reward for all the overtime!
