I found it extremely easy and was instantly kicking myself in the ass for dragging my feet so long since it appears I'm the only one that knows where the door unlock button is hidden Now that's done I'm getting a random wheel shake I'm trying to track down. So far it doesn't seem to be consistent enough for me to completely rule anything out and it's been raining for days so for now we wait... |

Made custom speaker pods using the factory speakers. Soldered the wires to the factory speaker wire connection so I could use the existing wiring harness.

I replaced both rear tail lights (again). I had rear tail light errors on our road trip- and for a few months on and off again. I was upset for a minute until I looked back into the thread I'd made when I replaced them the 1st time. It was 7 YEARS back and ~110k miles ago. Since then, I'd tapped a mailbox and clipped the top edge of the left one as well as ran through some super fine desert dust that had infiltrated the right one. So, along with the new lift gate lights I put in this Spring, I am feeling pretty good with the tail end. It's also nice to have all the lights working again for road trips. I will clear another 500 miles or so this week. Error free and lit up like they're supposed to be! I wonder if I'll replace these?

What did you do to / for your E53 today??

I’m probably being dumb on this one, but what is the point of creating the custom pods to re-house the factory speakers? Or am I misunderstanding what you typed and you mean that you are putting after market (upgraded) speakers into custom mounts and reusing the factory wiring? Do you have finished (installed) product pictures? Are you designing the pods to improve the sound by redirecting and filling in the “cabinet”? |

There are significant upgrades to factory speakers that fit in existing enclosures and are plug and play. Though, depending on how particular you are, they may not be as good as you would like. The Seicane audio receiver also helps a bunch.

Put in a new alternator. Battery light started to go on and off friday morning when I fired it up and headed to work. Fortunately, my jobsite is only 2 miles away. Got there and back home no problem. Ordered up a rebuilt Valeo and took an Uber to pick it up after work.

booked in an appointment for new rubber... fronts need replacing and the rear developed a slow leak. Also having the clutch fan and thermostat replaced soon.
Now it seems the right headlight is either off or burning with a reddish colour... bulb replacement is probably going to be a nightmare and/or big bucks i assume? |
