So just got back after a 1600 mile drive from Texas to get my 04 SRT and it finally stopped raining. So now I could finally get to see what is can really do and cause general mayhem and tire damage.

But suddenly the panel under the steering wheel fell of and had a ton of wires attached. I bent the metal tabs and stuck it back on to look at it later. Apparently the truck has a fairly extensive aftermarket audio setup and there were wires all over the place. Many of them were cut and still live with power under the dash! After about an hour of hacking that stuff out I solved why there was no AM reception (antenna unplugged) and why the audio was really bad (sound was going through all that crap) I now have a large pile and remember again to never take your car or truck to the "inexpensive" audio installation places.

The job was very poor with lots of electrical tape and those crimp connectors that always seem to come loose. They even cut the main wires going to the accessory power on the ignition switch. They were just cut and taped together. It's much better now after soldering the connections together and using heat shrink tubing. Man I hate hack-jobs!

Hey thanks for the warm welcome. I really like the truck. Monday when I got back to work everyone wanted to see it. When I pulled it out of the garage all the questions started. Then one of my guys got in and I did a HUGE burnout on 23rd St and 6th Ave in front of my office in Manhattan. The entire block stopped and looked and the spectacle and I got bad looks from the local police on the street. Lucky they were pre occupied with something else. And here are the pics!
