So that will be going in the 8?
Are you knocking out the whole center dash to fit a carputer?
Or is this going to house the radio and climate control too?

FYI - My Metra arrived yesterday. I didn't go to the UPS store to check my mail yesterday, but it's there. Will pick it up today.

Basically, I'm doing the samething most guys are doing w/ their Metra kit.
The difference is, they've been installing double-din radios that have gps and media stuff, mine will be a pc.
So, kind of like this one, expect a pc will be there.


Jedi types too slow. hehe

Edit: damn it, Cesar beat me to the punch

Yeah it is never safe in the IE with the winds. The fire loossk as though it is at the base of the foothills between San Dimas and La Verne.

Stereo will be bad *** Cesar if you need help or just someone to hands you tools while you are in the car give me a call. I like that kind of stuff and jeorge can help too since his stereo is the the best.

So sicne you are getting the knee brace does that mean you are / go be more active? The screws look pretty cool, do you even feel them?

Saw to red 8's in Riverside today one whith white wheels and on the way home I saw a sad thing. There was a white kitten in the middle of the top over pass, I wanted to stop and help but there was no way for me to safely walk back up there.

Cesar: after you figure out the case dilemma, let me know when you want to do the install so I can plan on driving up to your place.
Gimme a week or two notice and I should be able to make it.

Loren: thanks for the compliment! I've got some upgrade plans for my stereo still in the works.

detrich "metra" is only the stuff that intregrates a stereo into the existing console while retining the red display and ac controls. there are other kits that have been out for a while that do the same thing but not as good. as well as custom stuff. metra is good stuff.

happy friday!

Ya, because of the brace I'll be able to lift weights again. I can finally start getting into shape again.
I'll work on my leg strength, plus I'll be able to ride the bike too.
By next year, I should be able to snowboard again

I don't feel the screws in my leg. They have been there since 2005 when I got my surgery.
These were the 1st xray's I've had since the surgery, so the 1st time I've seen them.

Unfortunately, I was right.
Rock Band 2 disc came w/ a coupon for 20 free downloads.
I always said it would probably be 20 songs not currently available and probably stuff we don't care about.
Some people, myself included, hoped it would be any 20 songs from their library we want, but I didn't think that would happen.

Anyways, they announced the 20 free songs the other day.
Without quoting all the boring details, here's the list. I'm curious if anyone has ever heard of any of these songs or bands.


The 20-pack features bands from across the world and from a variety of genres. Here's the complete list of free downloadable tracks:

The 88 - "Sons and Daughters"
Authority Zero - "No Regrets"
Between the Buried and Me - "Prequel To The Sequel"
The Cab - "Bounce"
The Chevelles - "Get It On"
The Cocktail Slippers - "Give It To Me"
Dealership - "Database Corrupted"
Endeverafter - "I Wanna Be Your Man"
The Ghost Hounds - "Ashes To Fire"
Hollywood Undead - "Young"
Kutless - "The Feeling"
The Len Price 3 - "If I Ain't Got You"
Lesley Roy - "I'm Gone, I'm Going"
Opiate for the Masses - "Burn You Down"
Semi-Precious Weapons - "Magnetic Baby"
Shaimus - "Like a Fool"
Thenewno2" - Crazy Tuesday"
Tickle Me Pink - "The Time Is Wrong"
Underoath - "Desperate Times, Desperate Measures"
X Japan - "I.V."
