    5 continued) It's almost free. The last part can be a bit finicky. The left side will get caught up on the steering column. Keep a cool head. It will come out. Just gently work it out and dont flex anything too much. You shouldn't have to. Generally, I moved the panel counter clockwise a bit. I...

    4 continued) 2x screws in the glove box 2x screws under the steering wheel 5) Pry the dashboard off. There are trim clips that need to pop off. The doors will want to close and get in the way. Jam a towel in the doors to keep the space free. Here's a good spot to pull on the passenger...

    CD Changer Emulator. Items bought: Yatour YT-M07 MBus edition. The YT-M06 is similar. However, the manual made no mention of being able to play WAV files, whereas the M07 did. Alpine 4913 adapter. These are hard to come by. There's someone in Europe selling replicas as seen here...

    Power Steering Cap Fix

    Just down towards the ground. Only air should come out of it. If I was really negligent, power steering fluid would overflow out the outlet port and spill out the outlet port. Without the second hose, it could overflow onto the heat shield and potentially drip onto the exhaust. The hose just...

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    On audio quality. So far I've only replaced all my speakers. As far as the radio goes, and I know that isn't saying much, the quality is great. It's better than my '07 mustang with an aftermarket head unit. The factory amps do a better job than a head unit. It can get very loud. Is there bass...

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    I've only had my car since last June. It was previously a garage queen. Most of my plastic seems to be fine. The hooks on my black door latch trim were snapped off. It turns out they used that trim piece up until 2002 on Jeep Grand Cherokees. I found a seller on Aliexpress (I know I know...)...

    8) Here's what things look like. Unscrew the bottom speaker first since you can access both harness plugs from there. Side note: I tested. Once the rear bulkhead panel is in this position, and if you want to fully remove it, you can move it towards the front of the car, up and over the seats...

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    I won't be upgrading the head unit, simply because my car would no longer be eligible for collector plates. Speakers were also selected so they could hide behind the oem grills. As for audio quality, If the DAC is offloaded to an external cd changer emulator, and the amplification is offloaded...

    Yeah it's an assembly check list. I thought it was pretty cool. I think I'm going to carefully remove them and store them in a ziplock bag.

    Door Tweeters. I wasn't originally going to replace these, but I found something that fit. I measured about 46.7mm on the stock tweeters. The closest I could find that would fit the hole were Herts CP 26 which measured 44mm. Also, the Hertz tweeters have a bolt hole on the back of the tweeter...

    Power Steering Cap Fix

    This solution might be a bit overkill, but here's how I addressed the infamous power steering cap issue. I routed a 3/8" hose from my cap breather to an oil catch can. 1) It prevents fluid from spraying up and onto the exhaust manifold 2) In the event of the cap coming loose, the hose will...

    Power Steering Cap Gasket?

    My Dorman 82585 came with a flat neoprene gasket as pictured ... and upon reinspecting my original cap, it has a flat ring gasket as well. It just really looks and feels like plastic until I probe the edge with a toothpick.

    9) Remove four screws on back of stanchions. Remove three screws on front stanchion. The seat belt mount prevents the stanchion from coming off. 10) Time to remove the big seatbelt bolt. Start by unclipping the triangular seat belt trim piece. There's a tab on each side. It has to be worked a...

    Door speakers part 3. 6) Three mounting screws. These are screwed in horizontally via tabs that are mostly visible. The short screw is the front-most screw. The other two are the same size. Two are shown below. The last is on the bottom towards the rear of the car. My screw driver is pointing...

    First up is door speakers. Items bought: A pair of Kicker 5.25" 4 ohm speakers. Model #: 46CSC54 A pair of Silicone 5.25" Car Speaker Baffles. Brand: Recoil. Model #: SPB525. I'm sure there are many like this A pair of Bass Blockers. I chose one that eliminates frequencies between 0-5.6kHz at...

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    I'm starting a thread for my audio upgrades on my 1993. Gen 2 seems to be well documented in various places, but I figured Gen 1 is different enough to warrant some posts. My goals are: 1) Door midrange speakers (See posts 2 3 4 5) 3) Door tweeter speakers (See post 7) 3) Rear speakers...

    Power Steering Cap Gasket?

    Thanks. I previously checked my cap. It had the rubber flap, but no rubber ring. I ordered a Dorman 82585 cap. Hopefully it has a rubber ring. I will find out thursday. I routed a 3/8 fuel line from the breather on my cap to under the brake booster. My understanding is that with the hose fixed...

    Power Steering Cap Gasket?

    Does anyone know if the gen 1 and 2 power steering caps are supposed to have a gasket or o-ring? If so, does anyone know a part number or correct o-ring size? I've been finding conflicting information....

    Ohhh.... I found a photo. I had no idea there was supposed to be plugs over those screws. I don't have a single one. Well dang... Guess I'll make those next.

    3D print an interior door sill plug

    There might be some confusion on which plugs these are. They're under the door when the door is closed. There's 4 per side on my 93. I circled 3 in green on the driver's side in this photo (ignore the messy garage!):
