Car looks pretty good. Nice and clean, anyway.

Tint is great in FL or Texas. It sucks here because cops just assume you are trying to hide something.

I don't know about Maxitech, but I don't have tint because I hate getting pulled over every time I drive at night just so they can check it (and me to see if I've been drinking or whatever), even if it's legal tint.

Nice work! How did you figure out exactly where to drill a hole in the firewall? What tool did you use to accomplish this?

Well, I used a hole saw, a pilot drill bit, and a larger bit. Then I used a dremel to get everything aligned and make everything fit well. Silicone up the perimeter and you're done!

It is an STS-custom ala Michael (awsm66). Heat the shifter in the oven then move the ball up. The shaft does need to be shortened, though.

It's weird, you'd think a shiny metal brace would stand out, but it has gone missing. I didn't do anything with it, just set it off to the side, but it just went missing. I'm hoping it will turn up soon.
