I wish they hadnt used the third gen column and mult function. It's like they had them left over or something. I hate that stupid *** captain crunch turn single stalk that feels like its gonna break when you use the signals. The noise it makes is hellacious..

This is so old!

Doing custom interior stuff is more common today than 9 yrs ago. It would have been nice to see the finish product, I bet it probably turned out nice.
