vex will become famous soon enough
I just bought some Deutsch connectors, aluminum tube (to replace the steel I bent up... something just doesn't feel right if I were to use the steel tube), and a 180* bender. The new list currently consists of:
  1. Buy Duetsch connectors for all the different plugs I'll need: Done
  2. Bend aluminum for ignition coils
  3. Drill and mount coil pack
  4. Wire up coils
  5. Wire up new sensor suite
  6. Crimp cannon plug
  7. Order USB bulkhead connectors: Done
  8. Mount USB bulkhead connectors: Location known--it's not the glove box
  9. Wire up Dash: In Progress
  10. Wire up internal (to the cabin) inputs and outputs from ECU
  11. Order new pipe bender since my last one broke, to finish oil recirculation route: Done
  12. Design, cut, and send out for welding a recirculation tank.

I'm also working on getting some of the interior taken care of this summer. I'm thinking of re-upholstering the arm rest business with the same vinyl I used for the dash, and I'm currently doing research on SPAL power window units for easy implementation and replacement of the stock motor/assembly as well as the switches.

Next winter will be dealing with the dashboard and the rest of the interior--though I don't know of any places that sell new carpets, let alone skuff plates. I'll probably get in touch with Mazda about those.
