I wish you better luck than what you had with your last install.

according to the weather forecast, Sunday in Adam's garage might be the best plan of action.

The rear driver side is a little tight, but that can be easily handled.

Stand by ... I may be able to offer our 2-car garage for Sunday (if everyone's willing to make the trek). Lemme check with my cruise director to see what's on the agenda for that day ...

Okay - looks like our schedule is clear on Sunday. If you want, our garage and driveway are available for the install. We're only about 20 minutes north of DC on I-95 if you're interested.

Depends more on Adam and Jason. Would you guys rather work in the small garage in alexandria or large one in MD. Beggers can't be choosers

I really don't care. The two car would be easier to work in/move around.
edit: There is also Ft. Myers.

No preference on this side... I'd advocate that we start early, I'll need to head out early... :-/

This is a valid point too... Has anyone used Ft. Myers' garage before? I never have, but would like to check it out sometime.

Yup, we used it for my install. It went pretty well. You kind of have to hunt for the tools, but they have everything you need. It's $5/hr for an empty bay and $6/hr for a bay with a lift IIRC. I can't find the site right now...
