An update.... But very small.

I'm slowly starting to get back to work on it, though with the baby getting super close to time I still can't do a whole lot.

I got the new alpine deck in last night for kicks and I'm strting to map out te interior to figure out where I want everything. It's funny because I basically doubled my interior space from the ranger but still having a hard time squeezing everything in. But I'll make it work.

Going to try and get the brackets swapped onto the other 2010 seat tonight so I can have an idea of how much room I have for my center console. I'm getting tempted to throw some tube inside and do a console from front to rear but I haven't made up my mind yet.

as much as all of us want to see this thing finished and worked on... family comes first, and for the last while, it has seemed that you have had your hands full of family!

Thanks jay.

Well I figured I'd let everybody know, the time has come. My little girl will born tommorow.

We are going in at 5 am so she can be induced. Just crossing my fingers hoping all goes well.

Good luck Buddy! I had my son last December (my 1st). Drink lots of coffee to stay up and bring a book or something. The inducing and waiting took forever! I played lots of Angry Birds that night.
