Fred,
...Welcome and sorry to hear aboot the accident. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Oh. it really wasn't anything. Like i said the trucker was upset over soemthing a car did that looked just like ours, and he went for a little "highway vigilante" action and got the wrong car.
He tapped us at around 10 MPH and just cracked the platic bumper cover on the car. I pulled over, he didn't. I chased him thru about 3 counties before the police finally caught him. The accident happened in Iowa, so:
A) it's not considered an accident since the damage was estimated to be less than $1000 (the cop clearly had never purchased anything at a Volvo Dealer before)
B) Since it wasn't a reportable accident, (and he denied ever hitting us at all) the guy couldn't be charged with leaving the scene of an accident.
So, the only thing I got out of it was a cracked bumper cover, and lots of bad feelings towards truckers.
I'd like to think that in Wisconsin, he'd have been taken to jail... and that he wouldn't have driven halfway across the state before the State Troopers managed to intercept him.
Fred

Mine have been beat up with an impact wrench and show a little wear on the edges. Also, the colorfastness didn't last on this set but I didn't really care. I just wanted something to cover the studs and didn't want chrome and that's all that is available unless you get them customized.

Looks GREAT!! That's the Bo Derrick of winches!
and the wheels look very nice!
Do you have the TV Tuner antenna embedded in the windshield? If so, how did you do that? what kind of antenna, how much? How long to install, hows the reception?
TIA </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Actually the T.V. antenna is tucked away in the windsheild upper panels. The reception is pretty good(17 channels) but varies depending where you drive. In Utah, I recieved 7 channels. All God stuff.
It's all Kenwood stuff so you should be able to check out the site. I'm just too lazy to run out and check the model numbers.

Too bad, 'cause that means you may never be able to speak with me again. Unless, of course, you go into your own mating ritual. That might be a good thing. |

Yes, where did you get the lugs? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
They were chrome lugs for an H1. I sandblasted them and spraybombed them flat black with Tremclad High Heat Paint.
