Forever Simone

  I've started so many mini projects on my s14 it's hard to keep count. I figured they would all make for great blog posts, youtube videos, etc. I just recently had my adobe creative cloud license revoked for the time being so I can't really edit any video footage. Not that I had anything crazy in store, along with parts for projects I've bought tools, storage for those tools, and materials to use those tools on. It all started with me buying a double din headunit...  The headunit was fairly cheap,  I also ended up getting a stealth am/fm antenna for the car which I shoved up by the roofskin in between the headliner. Works awesome, I don't even remember having am/fm radio in the car previously. It also came with a little backup camera (which is kind of ugly, I may get a different one) and I thought that would be cool to hook it up. Not that I need it, but putting a front and rear camera on the car to see how close I am to curbing my front lip or exhaust would be rad

The S14 Digital Climate control, is definitely a cool piece to have if you have a non gutted s-chassis and didn't decide to run gauges in your center vents like most people did in the 90's and early 20000's.  I think one of the biggest gripes about this piece is that it does not match the color of the center vent panel at all, it's a completely different shade of gray. I am not sure why the manufacturer Zexel did this. But I tried various things to try and spruce up my unit and I think it came out pretty good. Just came at a cost of a lot of trial and error.  It's mentioned in the Climate Control How To but this is what I did to re-seat the buttons on the unit as it's 25 year old plastic and they will break.  First mistake I made was trying to mask the buttons with painters tape and taking an xacto knife trying to mask the icons. I ended up gouging all of the buttons, This ultimately caused me to buy a second unit for 50 bucks on ebay to have as parts.  Soooooo
