of the actual cable i need 22", thats not measuring the controls on the end of cable.

I guess I can figure it out from that. It'll be a few days before I can send it out.

PM me your address.

After measuring some things, a 22" cable would be adding 4 3/4" to the stock length. Does that sound right?
If not, measure the total length including everything.

Well i get everything done for the show except the cable to change the temp. here are some shots of the relocations. I plan to make the top of the center console match the bezel around the shifter. Sorry about the bad picture, just didn't want to turn out today.

At the show on Sunday in my class there was only one other car. It was a 2002 yellow Trans Am collectors edition. It was perfect and only had 5000 miles on it (poor car) needless to say i took second, but it was fun to be around all the people and get the "you have a computer in your car!?!" lol.

Well i don't have a good update, but I figured that i didn't want to leave everyone hanging. I'm about to start collage (1st year) and moneys a little tight so I'm not going to be working on the car for awhile. I'm going to try to save for my rims over the next few months so i can get them for spring. And i also have a few other things i want to do that include, headers, new exhaust, upper strut bar, and yellow top (big 3 at the same time)

I still have a few carputer things i want to do:

GPS receiver
IG 4
Fusion Brain

and i'm still debating on the second computer for controlling (might just use this one). if i do i'll need another m2 or m1 and i have my second monitor still.

CollAge, huh? I dun all the book lernin ima gonna do.

Man, I still haven't put that cable together for you yet. My car got flooded last Thu. (not interior, just water in engine) and I found out the engine needs to be rebuilt and I have to go through Insurance so I've been all distracted lately. I've got all the parts laid out though. Should be fairly easy.

Thanks Jason, seem like your always the one to catch my mess ups lol.

I've been talking with Dennis5587 in his worklog and he has been giving me some pointers with different VFD's. I think i've decided on a display that i want for my rear view mirror.
Here is the product photo

Taken apart

Here is the size that it'll be when in the mirror.

I think it'll make a nice fit. Dennis5587 thinks it's a little big so i need some more feedback because i don't want to kill my stock look now lol

**Dennis5587** · 08-24-2007, 06:15 PM

I wouldn't put it in the middle... I was picturing putting it more to like the bottom right, much like the stock ones

**sporty_drew** · 08-24-2007, 06:18 PM

stock ones? I don't think i can move it too far right without changing the shape of the mirror. You don't think having it symmetrical would be better?
