Just drove it to RadioShack today to buy my last switches for my latest project. Glad it's FINALLY done! Lol. Now just need to get it sold so I can fund our vacation and get back to modding my truck.

The connector tilts back so the phone leans like it would if it just​ sat in the groove. I get a little lean from side to side but I plan to beef it up with some rubber or something to eliminate that.

A little update... Added some foam to support side to side movement. No issues at all since doing that but I also bought this new cable I'm going to swap with the current one to have more slack for a better adjustment at the phone end. I've popped​ the console trim off a lot in the past for mods so wanted to give myself more slack.

Lots of time, money and labor. Lol. I built it to sell and fund our family vacation. It's actually the 3rd one I have made. All done from scratch. Everything inside is fully adjustable and I can guarantee it is nicer inside than a safe you buy at the store. 5050 leds inside the door and inside the safe that turn on by pressing the vending buttons on the outside. Very bright and I love the custom switches I made. I have it on Craigslist and Armslist at the moment.

It would be kind of funny if you could insert some coins or dollars to get it to open.

Pop machines are not cheap by themselves. Lol. The internal guys literally take up every inch inside. You could make some sort of container in the exact shape as a pop can and fill it with ammo. If I owned a shooting range, I would definitely have that in my lobby area.

hmmm, what's pop? i've heard of soda before. :D

Ok, so still figuring out how to post photos.

I dipped my dust covers on my rims, I was going to do the little removable fingers but I thought it might be to much.

Not sure if I like it though.

I like the all black rims also but what if you did just XD lettering on the cap in red instead of the whole thing?? Just an idea.. Nice truck though

I'm from Illinois originally and I didn't realize that only Midwesterners says pop. Everybody else is coke or soda. I almost broke three girls necks the first time I said pop in Alabama.

    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • That computer lies!
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.    
    • I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
