@@kennethcaputo671 is there a brand you would recommend? I’ve seen people using Old Brown Glue. I’ve never used it myself.

@ that is the type I use. Benifits are you can heat it and take things apart.

@ thank you for the advice. I will try it on my next project.

​@@matthewschultz7945 All of the serious furniture restoration channel people that I watch every day try to use period correct glue on their project and Hide glue and fish glue are their favorite choices because they are reversible with heat and Old Brown Glue is their favorite pick; that said, there's no wrong way to pursue your passion.

@@zxborg9681 Thanks. Seamaster is a great watch. I’ve had this for close to 20 years. Still works great.

@@MyTimeTravelStory Thank you so much!

@@Bennextman Thank You! It’s one of our favorite places to fly in Florida.

@@danielm9566 that’s right. 6 1/2 inches front and back.

@@ShirleyAerial it is easy!

@@matthewschultz7945I just did mine over the weekend because of your video. I cancelled my install appointment for today.

@ that’s great to hear! I’m happy the video helped! See, it wasn’t that hard!

@@navitrader my poor editing skills! Thanks for the feedback. I’m always trying to improve.

@@paullapointe1266 All good with the gas cap, but I’ll have to check for the future. Thank you!!!

@@Limaxulu1 Thank You!!! I think our next video will be an IFR flight to the Bahamas. We are just waiting for the weather to settle down a little. We’ve definitely talked about paint as the next project for the plane. We did the avionics and overhauled the engine right after buying it. It has been a great plane!

@@matthewschultz7945 nice! I Hope you make videos about your mods and future trips

@@MM-vt4ji flying in South Florida in the winter is the best. There are lots of fun places to visit, and you’re not likely to be stranded on the ground waiting for a storm to pass.

@@waltermengden8927 yes! Very thorough!

BTW, why do they call it Runway 9, when there is literally only one runway? Not a pilot (yet) just curious.

@@5Ring No doubt! gotta keep your wife happy!

@@5Ring The runway is named for the heading you take when landing and taking off.

@@MarionBlair yes! That’s right. Good eye. It’s a 1966 172G with the six cylinder Continental engine. We’ve had it for a few years. Been a great plane.

@@chrisreagan8651 I’m glad you found the video! Yeah, definitely should avoid fuel at EWY if possible. Vanessa is pretty careful when it comes to fuel. She always tops off, even when she doesn’t need to. We have an audio recorder. Next flight I will try to capture all the audio. If we go to The Bahamas the audio should be interesting. Her iPad that is running Foreflight hasn’t had any problems with overheating. She always has air blowing on it from the vent. Just need to get airborne pretty quickly in the summertime. Flying in Florida in the summer is an adventure. We are looking forward to the cooler months and calmer weather.

Mine overheats easily also. (yoke mount). I bought a small USB powered fan which I'm going to try. Once airborne, it's fine.

@@01anton16 I used Alpine SPE-6000 speakers for the rear. They are two-way speakers (tweeter integrated in the speaker).

@@matthewschultz7945 Great, thanks for the info. I'm going to replace my speakers as well and your info was helpful!! 🔊

@@FrapachinoPlz we did that at night in 2023. We flew to PBI, then departed to the east, over Mar O Lago, and up the island. It was beautiful. Hard to get good video at night though.

@@jessyhassard8954 more power is always better for bass. No doubt. But I found the bass response to be pretty good. I wouldn’t add an amp just to drive these speakers. The head unit is sufficient. It won’t shake the windows of the car next to you, but it will be plenty good.

@@nathancotton8020 yes, I do have tweeters in the door. I tried swapping them out, but the plastic molding for the tweeter was unique to the stock tweeter. It would take a lot of work to replace. My tweeters were still sounding good, so I didn’t replace them.

@@Widloco That’s awesome! Glad my video helped you out. That’s what it’s all about!

Tweaking they charge like 70$ installation at Best Buy

@@pawlinski74 the front and rear speakers are the same size and are driven by the same size amp per channel, so they should play at the same volume.

@@matthewschultz7945 im installing the jbl gx 602s but im concidering adding the amp atleast minimum wattatge , but You made a big improvement with the ones You have installed i paid a good price for theese but Yours are the double price but the alpines are no 1 right now for the price they play very clear ...but more money :-) the highs in alpine are unbeatable

@@Jenlenjen there are some plastic clips that hold the door. Give a quick, firm tug.

@@matthewschultz7945 i ended up having to pry them open. It was as if they weren’t taken off in a while so they felt like they were seized on. Thank you so much for your reply and this tutorial tho! ✨🤞🏾

@@Jenlenjen that’s great. It’s a bit scary to pry off when you don’t know how much force to apply. I’m glad it worked out for you!

@@pawlinski74 I used Alpine S-S65C and SPE-6000 speakers and Metra 82-5605 Speaker Mounting Bracket.

@@matthewschultz7945 thanks a lot

Thanks! We were pretty happy with the result.

That’s awesome. Good luck with the replacement!

I completely agree. That wiring harness makes the job much easier. I was going to replace the 3” tweeter, but the housing is very specific, and would take a lot of custom fab work to get it to fit. Plus, the tweeter still sounds good. I don’t have 6x9s in my car. The grills in the back are vents for the battery (plug in hybrid). I wish I did have some 6x9s! I could really make it thump with a nice amp.

I don't believe so, I have a 17' Fusion, essentially exactly the same audio. The speaker & mount are one assembly. That's also why Crutchfield is super awesome as they supplied the adapter mount & that wire pigtail to still be able to use the factory connector! 😎 I saw another vid where someone separated the factory speaker from the mount, but didn't show how. Either way, the speaker was somehow cut out from the mount, & he did that, so he could still use the factory connector for the newer speaker. So, in this vid, Crutchfield supplied an adapter & a pigtail to use for the factory connector. In the other vid I saw, he just got the new speakers, cut out the factory speakers from their mount (which has the harness connection point as part of the mount housing, all one piece, no disassembly without modifying the whole mount) & soldered the new speaker terminals to the factory connecting point. Way more involved, but still not crazy difficult. Also though, cutting the factory speaker out to use the mount, means you're not reusing the factory speaker! It's either destroyed, or you're going to destroy it to use the mount. Crutchfield way, with supplied adapter & pigtail, you can still put back on the factory speaker for whatever reason later down the road. Oof, sorry, ramble done 😆

It’s been almost a year now, and the sections haven’t noticeably moved, and no plants growing through the cracks.

Thanks! It’s a good workout too. My deadlift started to improve after lifting those 80lb bags of concrete.

Awesome. Glad it helped. Good luck with your project.

Thanks Lisa.

Sorry for the dust.

Thank you. We are pretty happy with the result too.

Glad you liked, Nicole.

Each section is 4 feet by 4 feet. Good luck with your project. I’m sure it will turn out great.

Thank You!

I bought all my parts from Crutchfield. The adapter was an option when purchasing the speakers.

Thank you! I can do the work faster than I can do the video editing, but hopefully done by next week.

Thank You!!!

Your dad sounds pretty cool.

Thank you!

New mirror will be smaller, but much nicer
