Bob,

I will have to look to see where my electric pump is located on the /6. I'm not sure where it is.

Good use of the welting on your instrument cluster. Nice

i will be doing this soon too, so very interested to see where you mount this and also how you wire it. only difference is I already installed the Carmagic switch in the steering column , the new switch is activated by the same lever that turned on the original system. so that has to be wired to the pump, but everything else would be the same. where will you take the pump wire and relay to, meaning which fuse will you connect it to?

Thanks, Doug. I am much happier now with the replacement dash top. I even like the look of the welting as an extra design detail.

Thanks, Brian. Before I drill and dress new holes I might try some industrial double-side tape. The location I proposed might work better for that since the surface is planar.

I also installed the Carmagic switch, and added a connector and wires for the pump to the harness. Check earlier in my thread for how I did that.

I trimmed the leads for the pump and crimped on new connectors. I did add an insulating cover to the positive lead.

The power lead comes from the fuse block, and the ground feeds through the new Carmagic switch I installed in the column.

For now, I installed the pump with double-side auto adhesive. I want to test operations before drilling any holes.

I then straightened the welting and tightened the dash top bolts. I like it.

Looks great ... kind of how finishing a room with crown molding does (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I'm just sorry you didn't pick the pink/white motif instead of your yellow....seriously. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

A friend modified his turquoise/white 2-door '55 station wagon with the 'Crown Vic' treatment to match his dad's Crown Vic... possibly the only 'Vic Wagon' in existence (?) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

He sold it years ago, but I'll see if I can get a pic or two of it from him ...

Had some more deliveries, so caught up with a few things.

Here's a 30mm hole in the dash, that I think is where the original washer fluid lines passed through.

It took a couple of tries, but eventually I found some 30mm blanking grommets.
