Default A little peek at my interior upgrades

Yesterday and today has been mainly wiring the Big Stuff 3 and the factory PCM. Not an easy thing to find a new home for the 2nd PCM. I will no longer have a functioning glove box, but it will be turned into an access hatch for the Big Stuff 3.

While I was at it I tried out my vent to guage adaptors and my HVAC silver overlay. I think it looks pretty good.





I am looking forward to seeing how it all looks with the gauge cluster installed.




Coming along slowly but surely.

Sorry, I bought it about a year ago and forget. I'll see if I can find the receipt and let you know.

Yes it is supposed to. The motor has been out of the car for more than a year and still has no electrical power. I am just wiring the motor now.

i love all the silver accents. The Formula lighted up a night will be real nice and the gauges will definitely look hot.

I want to do something similar to my TA

Very nice eject button.

Question though who made the hvac overlay is it silver covered or actual aluminum? I have an mba aluminum one and I wanted to know how it would match because I want to get the same head unit plate you have. What color do you have it backlit with?

I'll shoot you a PM, they are not a sponsor. They have a pile of different colors they will do. I bought a full custom set, the gauges, the HVAC and the dimmer all match. It is near to perfect match for the Ultralite gauges. It is slightly different than the HUmount but I was surprised that is was so close in color. I like the fact they will all have the same red color lighting as well.

The eject button is just a plug that goes in the ligher outlet. No function but for giggles and possibly to silence the wife after going to a Bond film.

Want to really freak out a passanger sometime??

Wire-up that Eject button, so that when pressed it'll do two things:
1. Have the passangers side window automatically go all the way down, and

2. Activate something in the passangers seat, just to get thier attention, like the side bolster.

Granted nothing else happens after that, but talk and play it up big, then hit the button at the right time!
