But for the record, I have since cut them and they are mainting an acceptable length... for nowLeave a comment:

sorry for the silence yall, don't worry our talk about wokeness didn't scare me off lol. But thanks, JasonWilson48, and everyone else, you get it and you understand :) ANWAYS.. FUCK a chassis swap is not for the weak. working on pulling the entire chassis harness rn, so I can swap the non fucked up one from my first car. There's only 2 wires on the whole thing that have been cut/depinned. In the grand scheme of things its not much and a cut and splice would be a fix but I want to do the right fix. Im just slowly chipping away at it, the school semester is speeding up too so I've had to sacrifice a few weekends.
I'm starting to feel like I can't see the finish line, but I think im just too eager to gettiing it done. I know I'll get there, i just hate having to be patient... Don't we all?Leave a comment:

Yeah... I realized after I sent that, it might come across wrong. I fully support LGBTQ+ community, so I shouldn't be joking about it on a forum with people who don't know my actual intentions. I'll definitely go a different route with the bumper sticker.
Also... don't let anyone call you "woke" in a bad way. You're just being a good person, and being accepting of all people. It's the way people should act.
On a non-serious note... what is going on with those nails brother?!? Do you play guitar or something? If not, clip those claws!

Update # idk I lost count already...
started stripping down the interior of the donor car to get ready to swap over everything. got the dashboard pulled and holy fucking shit. whatever genius owned this car in the past absolutely hacked the wiring back there. So many bundles of SHIT spliced into the factory harnesss (plural), RANDOM ass splices, and some bulkhead connectors were depinned with added wires coming out of them??? who ever owned this in the past must of been smokin and experimenting with shit cuz wtf... like cmon save the rok smoking for the volvo owners.
so I decided to swap the wiring, since the wiring from the crashed car isnt fucked. gunna be a lot more work but I cannot in good conscience leave whats in there.
Anyways, the project is still moving... slowly. My circumstances may not be ideal, but im still showing up for it and It'll all be worth it in the end.
JasonWilson48 will most certainly be beating me on this one. that means I get to suffer the bumper sticker of doom and despair. Im fine with something queer as long as its funny, but All I ask is plz nothing queer that could potentially be interpreted as something negative. Sorry for being slightly woke, I hope that doesn't make me a buzzkill LOL
straight ally was pretty hilarious btw, it'd be even funnier of it was in the charlie xcx brat font lmaooo

you need to remove the glass, certainly to install the headliner in the new car. Keep in mind the headliner is glued around the sunroof opening. Pulling the glass isn't too hard. Use flat head to carefully lift out the joint caps from the lock strip. I recommend using the flat head perpendicular to the lock strip and digging it out from the side rather than forcing the flathead between the joint cap and lock strip. Then you can pull all of the lock strips out by hand. After the lockstrips are out you can use a trim tool to start to the lift the glass out, then get in the car and push it the rest of the way out by hand. Work slowly and avoid putting too much pressure in one spot to avoid cracking the glass. You can reuse the black seals if they are fine, which they likely will be. I have heard the new ones don't fit particularly well so if you damage one I would just get a used one from a part out. Reinstalling the glass is the reverse, but just make sure you use plenty of soapy water so you don't tear any of the seals. Also time to fix the defrost tabs or get the rear window tinted while you have the glass out if you want a truly perfect job.Leave a comment:

carpet is ready to be pulled
so is headliner, except the windsheilds need to come out for the headliner. - does anyone have any ways around removing the glass or is it inevitable?
also if so, are the windsheild rubbers able to be reused? really not trying to get a new one for several hundred dollars.Leave a comment:
