Nick, Can you not just stick your key in the door and roll it up that way?

I'll try that, but I don't think it's going to work. I feel like the switch isn't the problem anymore...

I tried manually closing it, that didn't work.

I cleaned the contacts on the sunroof switch and it didn't help anything. Seems to make the motor work every time I switch it though... so I think it did somehow fall off the tracks.

I installed the horn today, sounds pretty stock I'm very disappointed. I took out the high tone horn and replaced it with the new one, so I have the stock low tone and the new low tone working together. Here's a video, the before video was too long for me to email to myself, but you all know what it sounds like.

Can you hear a difference? It sucks.

Guys. I'm dumb.

While having my car up on jackstands today I started looking at my coilovers and such, checking everything out when I noticed something. I haz bumpstops built into my coilovers...

But I also had the stock bumpstops in, although they were cut.

SO I TOOK THOSE ******* OUT.

And now I tuck letters on the tires and I can't turn anymore. I'm at 22.5 with a half inch of threads left. <3

My car also has a lot less bounce. I'm in heaven. Pictures tomorrow because it's wicked dahk right now.

Hahaha, I obviously have to adjust it before I go out... Driving straight I rub on stuff because of my spacers.

Winter mode soon. I'm going to slam it.
