Ahhhh much better, all nice and neat up there nothing falling down anymore about to kill me when it wraps around my brake pedal!
Even was able to hide the crossover for the new speakers I am putting in. Plenty of room left when I add the clutch pedal down.
Wired both front speakers and crossovers last night, put the tweeter sails back in didnt get a change to put the 5.25's in. As I have read 100 times its really a horrible place for that 5.25 there is basically no space in there at all especially with the wiring. Oh well I will fade to the back more.
I was hoping to get the sound deadening done last night, I started it but got tired. Sucks having to travel to the in-laws to work on the car every time I want to do something. Maybe I will try again on Thursday, pretty packed week.

Also got some lighted Keys cut since I only had one working key left, the other one broke off in the ignition, good thing I could pull it out.
I actually really like the Scytek remote, that alarm is pretty awesome for $30, I havent bought an alarm since I was 18 all my other cars came with them, price is crazy good for what it does.

Ok small update, I finally got all the sound deadening in. I was only going to do the large surface areas because from what I have read and heard it really doesnt do too much, but I got this all really cheap so I figured since the carpet was out why not.
Welllllll I went a bit crazy, I had a bunch left so I kept going and before i knew it i covered a lot of the car.
I bought the OEM felt sound deadening pad for the rear seats since my car didnt have one, it was only $25 not bad.
I threw the recovered M3 seats in just for a sec to see them, I had the rear seatbelts lengthened to work with the new rear M3 seats too. I cant wait to get this damn interior back together. Hopefully by this weekend.
Dont mind the giant hole the PO cut for his 15" sub lol.

Took 4 months to get my seats back (front and rear redone), but he told me that off the bat so I expected it.
I think it would be faster if you just want a kit though, I had him do my seats for me then ship them.

Ok second day in a row of work. Probably done for now until after the holidays, but I feel like I ended up on a good note.
So first before I put the seats back in I had to take care of the really faded seat belt buttons. I hit them really quick with some red rustoleum plastic paint. Not perfect but way better then before and didn't feel like spending a few hundred on new ones.
Painted the plastic parts of the rear deck with trim paint, they were not too bad but now look really new again. Also reinstalled the newly dyed parcel shelf.

Installed the new Mtech II steering wheel, 370mm. I also put in non airbag blinker and washer stalks.
Unwrapped the fresh new OEM black carpet, love the smell of new carpeting!
I gotta say putting in new carpet is a BITCH! And something I do not want to do again. There are still a few things I need to adjust a bit but after struggling with it for an hour, stopping for dinner then struggling with it again I finally got it in.
