Liking that mate apart from:-
1.the colour of the leather would have been better in tan.
2.the hole where the tweeter/door pull goes is still visible.
Q.Will the police not pull you for driving with the screen on, even if it is for the speedo?.
Q.How do you demist your sidewindows as you have covered the vents in leather?.
All in all a very nice car , but a bit more thought and it would have been even better.

The lemon looks better than tanned and it has been done b4 i havent seent this colour.
I know the whole is still visabel, i did fibreglass it and then filler over it and it didnt look 2 bad, but after being trimmed u can see it, not alot i can do now.
The car passed an MOT with the screen.
I have aircon, so if i close the doors and switch it on the windows get dimisted, even though the only vents that work are the 1s at your feet.

Looks nice. How much did it all cost?
Hope to see it driving round Leicester one day. Watch out on Pork Pie Roundabout though

Not my cup of tea at all but I have to say I'm very impressed with the amount of thought and imagination thats gone into it...some very trick ideas indeed - love the CD slot, the idea behind the clocks and the glovebox mounted heater controls!!
The overall standand of work looks really very good, even if not to everyones taste you should be proud

Thanks, i am very proud. The whole install was done by me and my dad. All the wiring was done by myself. I knew what i wanted it 2 look like and its better than that so i am really happy. Just need some sun now and i can get out there driving it

very nice, work looks bloody brilliant
the only thing that bugs me is the whole "lets film the dials in a box and display them on a screen" idea - maybe im a bit arrogant, but whats the point? surely, spend a few hundred quid and go digital (ie: ecu diag board, you have a pc, pump the data through that, churn out some lovely dials to display on the screen)??
but still, nice car and again the work looks top notch
