Busy weekend overall, but the vast majority of the work is done.
All the wheel studs are in, CV shafts replaced, mini-mudflaps installed, wheel adapters turned into spacers, and changed out the hatch latch and lock mechanism.
About that last one... seems the unit I was sent is different than the one that came out; it ships with a bunch of extra parts which are not used and do not fit inside the hatch. In the end, to get the handle to open properly, I had to secure the scissoring parts with a nut and bolt to operate the latch. The little white "T" served this same function when it came out of the box. I have to confirm that this is the correct part, or the correct superseded part.
