Default Custom interior piece courtsy of Emblempros

This thing turned out better than I imagined it would. It will be illuminated by Red LED's so it will match my gauges & dash.

I will be buying more pieces from these guys in the future!!!

How does the TCS switch go onto that? Is he able to replicate the old clips to secure the switch it to it or something?

Nope. I just had him cut the correct size hole for the switch. Today on lunch I'm gonna Epoxy the switch to the back side of the panel. I have some 2 part plastic weld Epoxy I'll be using. Same stuff I used to put my vent rings on.

To do this I would say it's best to have a extra TSC switch laying around. I'll have to center it in the hole & carefully Epoxy around it. There isn't much room for mistakes & you gotta watch where you put Epoxy cause the plastic ridge that surrounds the button which will be touching the panel isn't flush all the way around. Only really the top & bottom.

I'll post pics of it Epoxied after it dries to show what I'm talkin about. I still have to order the LED's for the lighting & figure out how I'm gonna mount the lighting. I'm sure I'll have to adjust it a few times to see how close the LED's need to be to match the rest of my dash.

Thankx for the responces guys.

Looks nice.

For the lighting I would splice into the HVAC light wires. Should turn on the light with the rest of the cars interior. You may even be able to order a HVAC pigtail (or cut one out of junker) and use plug and play LED's.

Good luck.

The trick to this will be getting the illumination bright enough but still not be able to see lights behind it. Like no spots brighter or darker than others. I found a style bulb I'm gonna use & it will be wired into the HVAC just like my Humount is.

I'll probably order the LED's this week. I'm not in a big hurry as I"m not installing the panel until I get my nitrous kit re-bought. The panel attaches to the console with adhesive & I don't want it stuck down until my switches are all wired up & ready to go.

looks good. did he give up on the ashtray design? I might have to get that design and call it a day.

Can you do a write up on the install and how you are wiring LEDs???

Thanks
