Well, this sucks. "Secure parking" isn't. Welcome to Seattle. Turning the key does nothing -- I hope it's just the battery but I suspect he cut some wires I needed.
On the other hand, I still have a lot of gauges left.   |

QUOTE(98101 @ Feb 6 2018, 09:51 AM)  After sleeping on it, I'm wondering whether it would make sense to find a stock console and modify the front to hold the vent/heater controls, if they'd fit. Not sure they'ed fit. Seems like it would be easier to simply put the controls back in the dash & relocate your gauges to the Stock/type console ? |

You might be right. The dash already had some flaws, the dashtop was already cracked, and the glovebox door already didn't open without lots of fiddling. Fixing up the interior was last on my list before. I wonder if there's any point in getting it perfect before I move to a better neighborhood. |
