I looked at doing that on mine, AK, but IIRC the driver's side sail panel is tilted down at a weird angle.

eFarmer: Take a look through the build thread in my sig, and you'll see where i mounted my tweeters in the door panel.

New fuel pump and she starts right up. Wouldve been happier had a not made a $60 mistake (see picture). My truck also starts better so my delayed start ive had for 3ish years mustve been tied to the fuel pump assembly. I didnt see anything obviously broken when I pulled out the old one so Im not exactly sure what died but i guess it mustve been the pump itself. Anyway the truck lives to drive thru another midwest winter (which the winters will kill it faster than anything at lol) Also I did not enjoy replacing the fuel pump by myself after roofing a garage the two days prior.... imma sleep well tonight.

2100......glad that was the diagnosis and it worked out for you. I hate pump changing too, but at least your truck is back up and running. Kudos.

One like THIS has been plugged in 24/7 and in use most any time my Mustang is parked for the last seven years. I mounted it to the ceiling of the garage, extended the cable, and installed a cigarette lighter plug on the end. When not in use, I coil the cord and hang it on a utility hook nect to the unit. It was purchased at Costco for $40.

Costco now has a Duracell-branded one with an LCD screen for $50 online, which may be cheaper in store. I'm not sure who makes it, but BT doesn't seem to have one similar.
