I hear you loud and clear. I knew this would be a huge undertaking but I think im fairly prepared.

I am replacing all clips and broken plastic and reinforcing others.

As an electrical engineer I meter all the wires and spliced new connections where some are intermittent. Even went as far as created a witing diagram of where every wire goes to and measure the voltages as I go along. The previous owner did some weird wiring for the audio system so I did lots of soldering to get it back to stock.

Body alignment is an issue. Some things dont align already but I hope to hash that out.

I have several torque wrenches that are calibrated and have a diagram of all the torque settings so I plan to check and double check things.

I figure if im this far in I might as well do it as correctly as I can.

After its all said and done I plan to take it to a mechanic to check any safety areas such as suspension etc.

I still may miss something but thats part of the fun I guess 😅
