    I used this:

    http://www.mothers.com/02_products/05100-05101_b.html

    It didnt make the chrome shine quite as good as other products but it did a great job on removing overspray and cleaning up some overlooked pieces just took decent elbow grease. I would recomend it.

    It's just a fan with no heating.

    The defogger fits in the factory center hole. I took this pic before screwing the nuts in place. You can see the 6x9 speaker on the right

    Installing a 3rd brake lite "LED" in rear shelf; wired to the brake switch. Made pedestal to bring it to the desired height and sprayed w/ semi-gloss paint.

    Didn't do anything to it but I did buy an intake for it. Picked up a Performer RPM Airgap on CL for $100.00. Guy had it on a Bronco for a few weeks and realized it killed his performance so he went back to a Performer.
