There was no way I was going to pass up staying in a place that declared no refunds if the cops haul you off. Plus my car doesn't have running water or toilet

You are braver than I sir!

Bottled water works fine and some better quality TP and a tree in the bush solves the other issue. I would have rather slept in a jail cell than that motel! No wonder you left at 2AM!!!

FWIW I think sealant normally goes on before the wax.
I've actually seen people do it both ways. I'm sure there's a difference in how it performs but for this time around...the seal went on last.

Car looks amazing!! I took pics but with my S3 potato-cam they don't do it justice.

Thanks

Over the last full day and a half, I ran my sound system power and ground wires.

Two 1/0 Power and two 1/0 Ground. Trying to fit these through the car would be impossilbe, running them under the car was slightly less impossible. Took the full 1.5 days.

Ran the wiring through the wheel wells and under the car. Used friction tape around the wires going through bends or against metal. Used hard ENT conduit for the runs under the car, and wire loom in other spots. Secured everything with a series of bolted in cable hold downs, plastic zip ties and metal zip ties. If the plastic ties break or the metal ones rust out, one way or another it should still be secure... Lol. Everything will of course be fused as well.

At no point is the wire the lowest point on the car. The frame rail or jacking rail is the lowest point, so it should be nice and safe. However I am still going to drive around with it disconnected for a bit and recheck before i hook it up to power. More pics in my build log for those interested :D
