On the Corvette; received and installed the replacement instrument panel. Requiring taking the bottom of the dash out and dropping the steering column. All went pretty good till putting the steering back in place and a relay falling to the floor. Went ahead and got the column bolted in place and started looking from where the relay belonged and could not find a place. So, Fired up the car and check lighting and things and finding the radio would not come on. So shut that down to go to the books and inet for answers. A few pieces of advice from forums and looking at the factory manual for my car and determined what it was for so got a mirrow a few days later and went hunting again with a fresh mind and body. LOL! Found the relay to be plugging in from the firewall side and a insert by feel thing. That done, all works. Put the rest of the lower dash together and called it a done job and it's neat to see the LCD working bright now.
Had a Truck Show last weekend at the I-10 Park but didn't find out till Saturday afternoon and finally went Sunday afternoon. But, many were gone by then. Still, much to see and was amazed with all the vender tents there. Have to pay more attention to these show times in the future. A few pics from the show.

Dust seemed to be a problem with most the people I talked to. Maybe next time, I can get to see more of the vehicles.
Sis in law from Texas got here a few days ago to spend some time with us. Really love having her here. She and wife been busy talking and doing things together since she arrived. This morning I ask wife what the agenda was and not known yet. Let the Winds of Fate do it's job.
This computer had a problem connecting to the internet and tried a few things but nothing worked. So , took it apart and blew it out with air, went and showed a friend at the fire station what I was looking at. Came back and put it together again and lo and behold, Hooked up. Hmmmmmmm.
Till the next.
