And I've never heard of 10w60 oil.

Sarcasm

10w60 oil has been around forever, but it's not really a commonly used oil. Older BMW M cars use it.

On my wagon I ran a beefy wire for trailer lights from the battery to the way back trunk. A connector and fuse at the battery terminal, then down the firewall and along the bottom until a grommet in the trunk. I zip-tied it every so many inches to other lines or pipes so it can’t move or shake.

It would all be under the carpet or behind plastic, so very little chance of seeing it.

I've tucked mine inside the plastic conduit on the driver (left hand) side. Had to lift the carpet and take a few trim pieces off, but wasn't too bad

If tailess monkey Abscate can run wires in the rocker panels, so can you.

Stick with a Dremel bit. I prefer to use it with a cable.
I’ve also got a piece of heater hose on the handle of
the extension cable to provide a larger diameter to
reduce strain during extended use and a better grip.

It's clean until you see the back of the gauge, I didnt want to remove the vent door so I had to bend/cut a few things :? At least I felt like a pro when using a grommet for the wires 8) Credits to this guy on thingiverse for the grille https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4077096 I've used a VDO senso...

Much like the rear deck speakers in my 850, the dash tweeters in my car were also totally shot, and I didn't want to waste my money on more crappy junkyard replacements. Luckily, unlike the rear deck speakers, there was a precedent for replacing the dash tweeters that got me started: https://www.swe...
