Default blonde moments

pull the center console. what a bitch. cursing and pulling and cursing and pulling. ok, it's out. took almost an hour. dropped 2 screws in between the tunnel and sound insulation in the process - fun for everyone.

Connect up the ipod interface. Reconnect the battery, test everything out, it works. Sweet.

tape the interface to the "black box" (it's actually silver), tuck the wiring behind the climate control.

Start muscling the console back in. More aggravation. Again, takes forever. OK finally done, start bolting everything up.

Hmm.... where's the ipod cable? Oh that't right - tucked behind the climate controls

here we go again...

Sorry but had to
You having a blonde moment seemed like Rott's old line that hasn't been used in a long time

Check some of the threads in appearance and detail for iPod connections, for some reason they end up there quite often??

Yeah, there are definitely some jobs that are easier to let someone else do. Car Toys installs.
