Took advantage of my 4 day weekend by changing my evap coil. Removed the dash, took the crash bar out, rewired my alarm and strobes that was a mess. Josh thanks for your help I wouldnt have dont it if you wouldnt have called me and gave me a quick walkthrough. Put everything back together heres some crappy pics.. Enjoy


P.s. No it didnt take me 4 days more like a full day 12-15hours

removed the crash bar to get the "black box" to come out so I can change the evap coil
 
Actually its not bad. There are some broken tabs from the age and heat here in Fl. Kinda running a little funky right now Not sure why. A/F guage isnt lighting up and sometimes does... and its stumbling a little. It probably has something to do with the wiring. I really want to clean it up under there but I dont know how besides removing the alarm and such... and I have 0 extra screws :)
 
The "hands" in that second picture are kind of spooky looking. Artificial maybe. The one on the floor just laying there dead.

ghost story:

"I was working on my car, late at night, alone in my garage. I took some pictures of the job to show my buds. It wasn't until much later when I actually looked at the pictures that I realized I'd had a "helper" of sorts...
