[Mgs] back on the road

[Paul Root]

finally made time this weekend and got the heater installed and the  
dash put in.

I found that once everything was buttoned up the dash, that I don't  
have the heater valve dial hooked up.
Joy everything has to come back apart. Not today. In the mean time, I  
just have the valve all the way open.

Took it for a bout a 30 minute drive this evening. Temperature stayed  
normal or less. So I'm satisfied that
I've got enough coolant in it. I was concerned about getting the  
heater core filled back up, but it seems good.

I put a new radio in, it's pretty nice. more power than the old one,  
and the unit is smaller and fits great. I can
even get my hand in behind it. The nicest part is that the wires have  
a plug into the back, so you can get it out easily
enough.

It's a JVC KD-APD38 comes with an iPod cable. 50Wx4. I got it for $79.  
It's $99 right now from Newegg.

I believe I'll be driving it into work tomorrow. About time we got  
some decent weather.

Paul.
