Yep, I have a Zune 120. I hate the limited file types and control setups on iPods.
I'm using the AUX port on the front of it, and I'm hooking up the CAMP to the backup camera input.
I wish I could control it through the head unit! They never made any head units (that I know of) that connect to Zunes. I'm tempted to give one of my programmer friends some money to program a firmware update for my head unit to include Zune interconnectivity.

Removed the headlights to refinish (since the older ones I worked so hard on got crushed, time for round two) and to refresh some components under the hood.

if your going to go through the effort to clean the lenses , it might be worthwhile to get some lens covers (the vinyl type w/ UV protection) to keep them from turning cloudy and yellow again.

the reason i mention this is you may get tired of reapplying the lens restorer on your lenses to keep them looking good.

Velcroed the driver's side door sill.

Clever. I discovered mine was duck taped on while running my subwoofer wiring.
Last owner broke off the tabs, so I just used new tape.

Dug out my low mileage one owner SVX and drove it into work the other day.

Replaced broken motor mounts on ramps in my driveway in the rain and it only took 2 hours including replacing the third bolt at the back of each bracket.....what a PITA.

Unfortunately did not help as much as I thought it would. Still shakes and wobbles under load way too much. Maybe tranny mount next?

You should have done that work yesterday.
It was sunny, and warm, no rain, plenty of screwdrivers to use....
Oh wait!

Nevermind!

Huffing paint is way more fun

The rain was motivation to get it done faster

Wired in some switches for my radio.
One's for the antenna, the other is a secret for now.

The crack is due to my drill. It got caught on the plastic trim.

Yesterday I bolted up my modified fwd rear subframe with the diff and all the goodies

and took out the engine and auto trans and then put in a wrx 5 speed.
Then today I put in the wrx pedals, clutch master cylinder and did the wiring for starting it with the clutch depressed.

So it's coming along quite well
