not worthy..."! Excellent DIY post. Well writtne, with great pics. You make it appear so easy. I gotta give you props for taking on a task like this. Stopping along the way to take pics & document while you're working makes it that much harder to get the job done. Thanks so much for doing the work on documenting this. You've surely helped a lot of DIY'ers in the future when they decide to take on this task. In fact, 2 thumbs up to all that you got info from. Great job! You gotta love a DIY explaination with lots of pics.
