Thanks guy's. 2 months in the making. I still have a few tweaks left. Hide my amp wires in the rear etc.. I'll post what I did and whats installed soon. The whole set-up including all the misc. pieces cost around 1,100.

Forgive me, I'm new to all of this "modding" stuff. I don't quite understand: Did you put a screen in front of your in dash display or did you remount a different screen in place of the factory one? With a few exceptions, I really like the cars they way they come, although I am getting some raw thrill from y'alls rides! Congrats on your car!

As you can see, the "orange screen" has been moved down to the lower "cubby hole" It was a pain in the *** to get everything mounted but it's well worth it I think.

Yes, there it is, I see it now. I missed it the first time I looked. I often wonder when I see folks put stuff 'behind' their shifter, how convenient (sp?) is that to read with your shifter there? I can only imagine why it was a pain. Good job and even better ingenuity. Kuddos!

It's kinda hard to see while your in park but in drive it's ok. I wish there was some other place to put it but thats the best there is.
