The panel around the gauges I am not doing right away. I will use fiberglass to delete the two "frog eye" air conditioning vents. I need to pick up a spare to try an idea on.

It was actually pretty easy and it deleted a lot of wiring in the process. I used a weatherpack connector so when I remove the center console, I simply unplug the connector and the switches/wiring comes out with the console. I used generic DPDT power window switches that fit, got a wiring diagram for the power windows, and wired it up. If you need any help, PM me.

Looks good, but a little plain for my liking. Though when it's all done may like it more.

Sweet, it's like a freakin' Z28 Scuderia or Superleggera!



You should have formed a shelf for storage though before getting it covered since you got rid of the glove box. Similar to the Lamborghini Miura.
