Notice the size difference!






I have a question. This alternator wont work on my 95 SC400 will it? Great work by the way on your progress.

OK thanks, I sent him a message and we'll see what happens. So where did you route the + from the Batt exactly? Through the firewall where the clutch master would go or some other avenue?

The three switches and pair of "888"s are for my air ride. They didnt turn out perfect. The material is 1/4" acrylic, cut by hand with a dremel. Looks better, installed, ..and with the smudges wiped off

Opinions on my head unit trim piece? I got the idea from a sililiar volt meter install. I thought it would be different.

I Think it looks good, maybe paint you woodgrain gloss black to tie it all together.

Im painting my woodgrain with a custom finish. Its going to be like a black woodgrain. Im using a black base coat (all automotive paint), then House of Colors silver/white marblizer and doing a grain like pattern, ...then the first couple coats of clear will have some 1/64 silver flake, ...then several coats of some good high solids clear. Im painting th steering wheel to match!

The seats, ...I think Im going to do taupe, w/ tan diamond tuck inserts (w/ taupe stitching), ..then do some matching tan diamond tuck on the panels below the woodgrain. Then some new floormats. Either new oem ones, or maybe like some cocomats.
