good job "pnoye2" looks Great! Just paint your hinges, and you look stock!

I'll be sure to do it that way if my method fails.

True value hardware... I was looking for some odd ball thread-pitch "bolt" for home project and came across it

does your lid hit the passenger side seat? this question is directed at everyone actually since i tried pnoye2's method and i ended up cracking the center piece trying to keep the lid open.

I'm sorry it didn't work out for you ee

...center piece; you mean the plastic trim cover affix to the bottom of the lid cover?!?

eekazum · 03-25-08, 03:01 AM

no, i mean plastic part that holds the lid. it's all good tho. once i get a car-pc going (once i get everything else working like it should) i'll probably just throw the tower in between the seats anyways.

I'm still happy with it though. Now I got to do other parts of the dash to match.
