Default MTX Swap done!!!!

Well actually about three weeks ago. I went on vacation. Anyway it was a fun job and only took me three days (Friday, Sat and Sunday). The honest worst part was getting the damn atx out!! That thing sucked and also it was frikin heavy as hell. Anyway the swap went smoothly prettymuch and I installed the PT clutch along with my boogers and the car is awesome!! I love driving it now. Its a little different because I was so used to the atx but now its so much faster and so much more fun! Only thing is, now my rear defrost doesnt work. Like when I push the buttom inside it doesnt turn on or work. Anyone know whats the problem? Other than that the car is awesome. I also made a new 3.0 CAI because I bought a K&N Filter and wanted to make it look nicer than the 5 minute previous 3.0 CAI I made. I also put on all noew gaskets and plugs, wires bla bla bla and my brand new shiny Vibrant Exhaust from Modern. It looks so sweet and sounds nice. I cant wait for it to be broken in. The sound now is nice and mellow, nice like a fart can( like my brother has on his KIA hahaha). Anyway I just wanted to let everyone know how the swap went and I am free to answer any questions from people wanting to the swap as it is pretty fresh in my head still. I also took alot of pictures so I think Im gonna write a How-To on it. I will keep ya guys posted! Thanks
