behind the seats is my Chemistry book.
I got them for free since my dad's friend is doing it for me. Just had to pay him $50 for materials. I think he charges like $500 to do it or something like that.
I only have one right now though, he's too lazy to make the other one.

I re-upholstered a TII seat - just me and my singer sewing machine! I even modified it a bit so I can use shoulder harness straps. Took some foam out of the seat cushion and stretched the springs to get some more headroom, too. Not bad for $60 of material

Where did you get the white face gauge cluster? Do they make them for the T II? If you know I'd like to find them
