I finally got my new cell phone to pair to the Bluetooth in the car. I also cut out more of the plastic trim around where the rear cargo cover mounted at the hatch door.

I made a inside tire mount for my spare tire. I'll need it next week for Twisted Sisters to keep the tire from sliding around. I had a section of nylon belt left over so I put it to good use also.

Just pull a wheel off the one you're not bringing?

I have a spare 16" steelie as well, so between us we should have enough.

Other "spare" items I'm planning to bring to Sisters.. A box of oil (Pennzoil 5w40), Mopar coolant, some 4c coil packs and some underwear.

If it wasn't parked at my apartment I'd do that... but I don't wanna leave it vulnerable to whatever. Plus da management doesn't like cars left up on jackstands.

Was considering moving up in size for tires. But the OE 205s came with the car and didn’t end up as stretched as I thought.

I've always loved that style of wheel.

Today I cleaned off 500 miles worth of bugs off the front end from the Twisted Sisters trip.
