For the A/C relocation.. I followed Wael's instructions...

http://www.efini.net/dash1.htm

I ended up putting 2 60mm gauges where the A/C controls used to be... The pic shows Boost and Fuel press.... I have Water and Oil Temp there now...

Hehe... Well, stick a piece of foam or something on it to insulate it. I'd hate to see some metal end up in there a start shorting the board.

Where are you putting the display?

Jay you're the F'in man dude. VERY clean install. Now I have to think of something to do with mine... I'm not interested in mounting the whole commander somewhere in the car... Awesome job!

JSpecRZ,

The car looks great. Would you happen to have more pictures of the front end? I'm trying to see how the RE headlights work with the 99 spec turn lamps on a black FD.

It's been decided...I'm getting the RE headlights.

Jspec, we (me and the chick in the avatar) agree that your car is stunning.
