I like the placement of the gauge pod. Did you just fiberglass it to the dash or is it going to be a removable piece? How do you plan to blend it into the dash texture and color also. Nice work!

It's going to be removable that was just the base I layed down tape on my dash and it popped out then I mould around that I'm not sure about the color yet it depends on how well it flows into the dash.

Colt4g63; Nope I wish thedsmgraveyard is taking its sweet time with my parts it's been two weeks still hasn't shipped...

I've heard that about them. Are you going to go anyway? I was thinking about going; I have never had my car on a dyno.

When I mounted the factory radio I just got I had to epoxy It into the brackets since one of the 8 previous owners thought it would be a good idea to chop the bracket up.

I like the fact you take the time to make sure everything is nice and clean before putting it back on the car. You're giving me a few ideas for my own!

I had to rewire my radio and the volume doesn't seem to be working a moderator said to let it reset by letting it sit on for 45 min but doesn't seem to be working.
I still have to wire my reverse lights in and figure what wires I hook my horn up to the relay clicks I just don't have the horn.

more work fixing the spots that were never prepped before paint






I have the trunk on now It matches very well because the clear I used had a little yellow in it making it look like my pearl.

Lookin good but I would definitely find a different spot to mount that pump. It is even more bulky than the fuse box it replaced..

Radio, I dunno. Is it the OEM one? I had all kinds of problems with mine and finally replaced it with a Pioneer.

I can send you the FSM diagrams of the reverse light wiring and horn wiring if you'd like.

Hope you are putting that battery in a box.
