Installing gauges hurts my head

Installed my gauges not too long ago. I think it came out pretty good. But wow, what a frustrating install. Took me a full day to run the lines and do all the wiring.

The car is in the shop right now. I'm going crazy waiting for it to be done. Here's a some flik of the gauges.



The car before the motor gave up.

I'm 6'1. But I don't like to drive far back from the wheel. So without the pedal sideways my leg would hit the steering wheel every time I would heel toe. So I fixed it up by turning the pedal.

It looks weird in that photo. Here's another. I don't why you would say it looks like burlap.

That looks a lot better. Must have been the way the sunlight was hitting the seat when you snapped the picture.
