Aaaaaannnd the difficult one is done as well and I installed the driver front door panel today. Also pulled the right headlight to see if I could jump the horn to see if it’s bad and found I had disconnected it last time I pulled that headlight out. Duh felt relieved and stupid at the same time. Also got the call, going back to work tomorrow so I have to wait until the weekend to do any more troubleshooting. I was working on the dome light circuit but ran out of time. The interior is done except now it’s torn apart again looking for electrical problems. I’ll figure them out eventually.

I get the feeling you could use a break and shift of mindset for a little bit. Step outta the forest so you can see the trees with fresh eyes in a few days, ya know?

Yep.
Edit: after taking the last pic I noticed it’s not sitting flush. Seems like it’s a tad too wide at the outside edge. I need to sand that edge so it isn’t so tight where it’s inset there. Pretty damn close though.

In an effort to cut down on the interior finishes I just ordered a set of brushed metal steering wheel covers. Eh, it's just another $115. That's the last thing that was wrapped. Figured might as well, the steering wheel itself is new.

Why wouldn't you have just painted them with that awesome color like you did on the switches?
