I froze my ass off for a few hours chopping up my lower dash so I can finally install a couple of 52mm gauges along with a few rocker switches. Not really sure how I want to position everything just yet...everything is going to be wrapped in 4D carbon fiber so I'm not too worried about scratches as long as everything is smooth

Here it is with a rough cut


Broke out the dremel to smooth out all the sharp edges



Test fitting the abs plastic trim piece after applying lots of heat to get the top to bend and contour into the right shape with a heat gun



I started caulking it into place but it started snowing again...to be continued

How'd u make out with the intake, knock sensors, etc?

I haven't replaced anything yet, still waiting for it to warm up...this ****** weather is killing me! lol

I really like how that's coming along. Where did you get the plastic sheet from?

Thanks, I bought it on ebay for $6 a sheet(12''x12'') I bought 5 sheets... stuff is pretty thick but with enough heat and patience you can get it to bend however you want.

BLACK ABS PLASTIC SHEET 1/8" - 1 SHEET USED FOR CUSTOM WORK ON PANNELS AND CAR | eBay

I figured since that was just dead space and I have no use for 2 cigarette lighters, might as well utilize it for something useful

 

[Tonyrodz]

Not even for the power points?

 

[Cattivo]

I'll reuse the power from the cigarette lighters for an USB port and 1 of the 52mm voltage gauges
