need to vent
well i went out to lowes to get the hardware for my seat brackets. had to bolt the brackets to my racing seats. well puting the brackets on was cake, only like 5 minutes. well then i take my old seat out and put the new seats in and the new bracket kit is off on one side. its only off like by a hair but off enough to make things difficult. to make matter worse i went to bolt my 4 point harness in, well i tried bolting the lap harness into the back of the seats where they bolt to the floor. i got one side on in no time but the other side was the side that was off and boy was that a pain in the a$$, and no i never got it on. the side that i did get on, i went to check it and adjust the belt and realized it was to close to the floor and i couldnt adjust it. well i am really ticked by now i take the harness of and decide that ill just use the old seat belts. so i put the clicker on the new bracket and go get the seat belts out of the garage and put them back on the car. well i get them out and realize that i am somehow missing 2 bolts so them things got tossed around in the garage to let out some frustration. along with all of that, i just got done painting all of my interior blue and put back in the car. while doing all of this i manage to put some nice scratches in some of the interior pieces. so in 2 and a half hours work all that got accomplished is the drivers seat completely bolted in and the passenger seat has three bolts back in it. its just funny that me or all of us spend all this money on stuff that isnt cheap and it isnt made right or off just a tad when they had to use the same car to make it first. and we spend all this money just to get pi$$ed off and in my case just wanting to get rid of this dmn car so i dont have to deal with this $h*t anymore. but i guess when i finally calm down and get the thing done it will be worth it but untill then, this sucks!!!!!
p.s. sorry for all the reading but i just needed to get that out
