![]() Dusty in there. Also you can see the insulation job I did to the duct work for the drivers side vent. ![]() I never knew there to be a "C" when the high beams were on. ![]() And the picture with the lights on, white led on clean gray looks good. I had to fight with the tac a little bit because when the nettle is removed it messed it up. After some thinking I knew when cold it idles at 900 or so-ish so while idle I stuck the pointer on...oh well I guess. |

I just did this same stuff today, man is it a pain in the a$$ to get behind that cluster. I fought with the wiring forever and eventually just unhooked the speedo gear from the trans and fed the cable through so I could pull it all the way forward. Hot long deep scrapes all up my right arm and I messed my hand up trying to squeeze behind it. It looks sweet but it really tried my patience man. Yours looks amazing!

means something needs to be fixed, or were you on a dirt road? 80 is a daily cruise, and many times I've needed to read a speed higher than 85. Especially on the 13" wheels, they are balanced and so smooth at interstate speed. Sometimes I got to be carefull, kicken back cruisin listening to some tunes chilln AC find myself going way to fast.
