Thanks, I did leave the mdf in place. It helped with mounting by reducing the need to fabricate and embed brackets into the fiberglass. I did go back and cut holes in some of the panels though to reduce unnecessary weight.

Yeah the dash must weigh a ton, a stainless steel dash would have made more sense when trying to disperse the 1.21 jiggawatts of power at 88mph lol

I noticed the pics are all dated 2006, do you have any recent ones of the finished product?

Dude, check the links in his signature.

Love what you have done!
I used to live miles away from the dealer in Oxnard! lolo, those were the days!

I understand the need for analog gauges but I was really expecting to see a full out digital setup

Dude, if you can manage that ... holy smokes batman! oops! wrong movie ...

Might be fun just to put some kind of blinking light thingy in the engine compartment since you have all kinds of space in there. You know, just for fun

Is that in the plans?

I hope you have a bttf style time circuit app .

You could hook it into your navigation software, and have it display time of arrival, present time and when you departed.

That is freakin' amazing work! I was just on here for some questions about an OBD reader. I can see this web site is going to be BIG trouble for me when I see projects like yours.
