  1. You can try the water bottle trick to stiffen up broken seat belt holders. Water bottles are pete-1 plastic which is very susceptible to heat. Cut the top and bottom off the bottle, slide it over the buckle receiver and use a hair dryer or heat gun. The plastic continues to shrink and contours the item inside the bottle. Use a pete-1 bottle that is close in diameter to the buckle receiver. A bottle too big will not shrink down enough to contour the belt + buckle. I found that a standard water bottle works great. This only works on pete-1 bottles. This will not work at all on the other common hdpe bottles that are used for milk, detergents etc.
  2. Woah boy that's a whole lotta work! Nice job
  3. You know, I didn't even notice that until you mentioned it. The concept of impossibly huge fenders instead of just a separate bed is a foolish one. This is the same problem rivian has with their pickups and the absurd cost of rear fender repair. The design language seems to be very rivian like, and makes me doubt this is from anyone other than rivian.
  4. It looks like you linked to an email in your inbox. Try taking a photo / screenshot of the report you got so we can try to help you. Thanks!
  5. Oooh Very nice. Where did you get the 12v accessory block?
  6. Majorly Jelly Nice find
  7. Excellent work!
  8. Haha my mistake. I meant the hurricane i6
  9. Fair enough, but it would be a good proving ground for the Hurricane I4 if they really wanted to put it in something useful ...
  10. A bloke on reddit revealed what appears to be the "slate auto" prototype truck. It is likely nothing other than a shell with wheels, which is common for first prototypes (the bmw i3 did this, and many others). I found it through the autopian which is an excellent publication. I can't help but notice the striking similarity to the Comanche. The slightly larger cab bump. The front rectangular grill with the side lights. The incredibly boxy and simple design. More importantly: Stellantis, wake up someone's going to out Jeep you!
  11. Heck yeah, that looks awesome Nice job. Reminds me of the impending paint job doom awaiting me . 3 different paint jobs, bondo that was spatula'd on like Spackle and some bed dents to undo. May be easier to just get another comanche
  12. Standard Motor Products is still located in LongIsland City, NY, which is quite nuts considering how expensive real estate is in the Queens NY area. I emailed them about the the Standard SG21 O2 sensor for Renix, and they actually responded to my email within a day saying they no longer manufacturer it.
  13. Another one running is win to me
  14. Cool! I was planning on doing the same thing to mine as the rear inner wheel well fender parts were missing. The aftermarket wheel liners feel like they are vacuum formed where as the originals were a different kind of rubber. I plastic welded the cracks in my front oem wheel liners with wire mesh and a soldering iron. If you have any more photos let me know! Thanks!
  15. Nice! I'll check this out later
  16. Step 1: Collect $1500 Step 2: Book it over to that seller and hand em $1500 Step 3: Drive it back home in style Sunset
  17. Aww yeah! Nice find. Good luck with it. Major Jealous
  18. Wow. I think part of my bed side is like that. I did the good ol magnet test and there is very little attraction for a good few inches. Looks Like I'll need a screwdriver too
  19. Aww yeah, just needed to be awakened from a long slumber. Nice job
