Default my turkey day project...

Not that any of you probably care...but I've been busy (while I wasn't eating) taking all the center console/instrument panel tirm off my 4th gen. That thing is a BITCH to get off! Finally fixed my heater problem. I guess the cable back there was off a little bit. And while I had it out, I fixed my cupholder! Yay! I was thinking that maybe tomorrow I'll go get some silver spray paint (not chrome...blech)and maybe paint the vents and the instrument bezel since I already have the trim off and everything. Anybody painted interior pieces before? Do I need to do anything special or just paint them?

Anybody else have some t-day projects?

I'd rough up the parts a lil bit w/some fine sandpaper, or at least wipe em down real good with some alcohol.

My T-day project, eat as much food as possible w/o bursting

Well, so much for the eating part. My thanksgiving meal consisted of fruit cocktail and sunflower seeds

It was by choice though, my gf thought she could hook up the turkey but when it was done, I tried it and tasted nothing but unseasoned meat:barf:

I don't know why she thinks she can cook, she still hasn't been able to make Rice-a-Roni w/o it being all soggy.
