Come on Spring!
« on: February 18, 2011, 04:02:37 PM »
I'm starting to get excited.  Spring's almost here which means soon it's going to be time to start doing some mods on my Avy. 

First up is the center console since one of my lovely family members decided to snap one of the hinges in it.  I've got the bench seat, so my truck only has 2 cup holders which everyone seems to like fighting over.  I don't really like it, but thought I'd start pricing out a replacement cover for it just to see the prices I'm looking at.  Over $300 just for the lid and hinges!   :uglystupid2:  So, I've priced out other consoles and have decided that my middle seat is coming out and I'm going to be installing a different console there.  I'm expecting to get that in the next few weeks, and at a third of the price of the lid for the one that's in there!  :thumbup:

Since I'm going to have all my tools rounded up anyway, I'm going to do the roll out bed and cup holders in the tailgate at the same time. 

I'm excited I'm going to be starting on some of the mods soon that I want to do to the truck.

I still haven't been able to start some of the things I want to do with my Avy, but I did finally manage to wash it today :thumbsup:  I'm actually about 1700 kms away from home at the moment, but had to get away from all the darn snow and flooding.
Hope this works for the pics :whistle:







I had to go a little girlie with the back but the big pink sticker is going to be going tomorrow.

Thanks.  It did feel nice having it cleaned, but now it's covered in road grime again :yucky:  Time to wash it again, but now that I'm home I've got to find where all the stuff is to clean it and get it ready for another 1700km trip again in another month or 2.  It'll be the last long trip like that with it for a while I hope.  I love the truck, but those long trips start to really rack up the miles and make it more of a challenge to keep clean.
