Put on my new to me MOPAR tow hooks. All I gotta say is wow... biggest pita. I was getting so frustrated, the back bolts aren't tightened. Gonna finish it up tomorrow. Also, in the procces, pinched the vaccum ball line. You know what happens when you pinch a dry rotted line? it cracks. What do I do know. Oh, and the end of the line that goes into the bay popped of it's nipple(?) where does it go?

I figured I'd try out some angry eyes... I know everybody is doing it, but oh well. I know the tint guy at one of my dealerships and he gave me some scrap to play with. Did my signal lenses too. What do you think?

Did you just break the bolt? I broke all four on mine. Just get a punch and a BFH and pound out the welded nut off the cross member thing. Then get some grade 8 nuts and bolts. Tape the nut to the end of a combo wrench and slide it above the crossmember and feed to bolt thorough to the holes. Its a tight fit, but that is how i did mine. Bit of PITA, but it will save you from cutting the floor.
