I like the key surround, but I am not too wild about the cup holder or the hazard surround. To my eye, they look a bit lonely. Now that you have started, you cannot stop....
you are getting sleeepy....
sleeeeepy...
must... modify....

I agree,. if I dont do the Gt-3 console delete, (which is kinda hard with my setup) I am going to do the ac and cd holder surround. I love the hazard surround though...

Here's a question I've had, and these pix reminded me. On the a/c vent module, just to the left of the ignition, and just below the vent on the other end of the dash, there's an elongated oval shaped blank (black in these pix), and I've never been able to figure what purpose they serve. I've never seen a car with a switch or anything else there. Anybody know?

Kind of agree with Doug. You need more A/S accents. I'd do the instrument surround, the upper center console, and the rear center console, at a MINIMUM!

Yes, but I am having the turbo machined off. There will just be a blank silver insert there. I like this shifeter MUCH MUCH better....

Silver Crest

Where could one get a neat silver crest like you have between your speakers? We could find many things on our cars that could use a neat signature as you have done.

On some European cars, the oval contains a switch that adjusts the headlight level.

Very interesting Dan about the switch plate. No-turn-tech: I bought mine of of ebay.com. A board sponsor, Ralph Booth sells them i believe.
