    I HAVE to disagree.. Comets are the best. :comet:

    The console looks great. Looks like you could add speakers to it also.

    I am planning on adding some 4 inch speakers to the center console and some shallow mount 6 1/2s to the doors, today i spent most of my time replacing the old carpet. when i am done ill post some pics. and I love the fact that mines a comet even if she hardly looks like one.

    The center console doesnt fit quite as well after i changed the carpet so i am gonna have to work on it next weekend.

    i started swapping the pictures over to larger ones in case anyone else comes up with this issue.
    So I need a new oil pan (the owner before me thought jb weld would hold it together i guess... Anyone know where to get a replacement for an i6 ?

    So its been a few weeks without much progress, I had to replace the radiator in my wife's car and I've been a bit busy. In other news I was awarded an army achievement medal today so i am pretty stoked.
