Finally got around to making up custom mounts for my fishing rod holders.

And by that I mean it was a collaboration with my brother since he is the CNC guy and a much better CAD modeler than I...:notworthy:

I've got some pictures of the process too...I can post those too if you guys wanted to see

Had to install a new passenger side headlight, so while I had the front facia off, I decided to repair all the cracks, rips and tears in the plastic, take out some of the rock dings, repaint the upper and Herculiner the lower part. Gonna have to do the driver side headlight in a couple of weeks... New housings don't make the old ones look very nice...

Installed a 110 volt inverter that I picked up off of eBay. Easy install.

Nice! This has been on my to do list for some time now, and I have gathered everything except the inverter module. What year is your riot, and what is the part number for the inverter you bought?
Thanks man!

6 hours of labor today in my 2014 Jeep Patriot. Upgraded all 4 doors with some new Kicker 6x9s (these ones have up to 90 watts RMS), and installed a Kicker 4 Channel amp (technically its a 5 channel but I wont need to use that channel). I ran some line output converters (2 of them - 1 for front and 1 for rear) from the factory touchscreen. Sounds amazing!! I took my time on it (compared to the old Best Buy days) and took some breaks, but it was well worth it!!

Well Bruce thank you for that link but the guy emailed me and said the part had already been sold...after I had already paid for it. What a bunch of Bull ****... Oh well I guess i will keep searching.

Finally got around to making my first prototype for paracord grab handles! I am pretty happy with the way it turned out. Color matched(ish) cord is on the way, and rev2 of the metal piece is in design...

That's pretty cool! I'd be down for a set of those.
